Young and Beautiful

Steemit has given me insight into what I consider to be a paradoxical personality flaw. Take a moment and consider what this means. I will try to illustrate, so don’t worry if after thinking you remain confused. 3AF7A63B-6103-4A86-A7ED-66DD7B87D871.jpeg

Let’s begin with my weakness for young and beautiful females (both girls and women). I’m sorry... I can’t help myself. With women it is easier for me to forgive their intellectual flaws. I simply like girls.

This is natural for me, and it seems to be natural for most other people. This natural perspective however violates my desire to treat others fairly.

What’s worse is that most women can be both flattered and offended by my behavior. They are flattered that I appreciate their youth and beauty, but offended that my behavior can appear sexually discriminatory. In fact bout are true. Again I am sorry.

The problem shows up when I do not treat the old and ugly with the same grace. Yes, the personality flaw is mine. I believe most men share the same flaw.

The paradox is there is no appropriate solution. It is not good to dislike someone because they are different than you. Everyone has a right to their own perspective regardless of the obvious mistakes.

The real problem is I hope I am not treated as I treat others. I fall into the old and ugly group. Time has broken me down.

I hope you now understand what I meant by a paradoxical personality flaw,. Like Popeye... I am what I am.

Elvis said it best...”Don’t be cruel to a heart that’s true”. Yet, I still prefer the young and beautiful.

Here is today’s beauty.

I understand... the paradox is our natural behaviour vs societal behaviour.

I think we all enjoy beauty & youth much more then ugly & old. This I think is just a fact of life.

Most men have those flaws and I for one have female friends who got advances from older men cos they are beautiful, I didn't hear thesame from the others. Every man is attracted to something and that makes them remember their youthful age. They want to flow with the trend.

And a beauty she is, a Granddaughter? She likes her super heroes I see, looks like Thor sitting in front of her. Much better then a Barbie doll ;)

I have a soft spot for girls of all ages. My Wife likes to say that I am a flirt as I talk so nice to women across the board, even the old ones.

There is no question I treat men differently then women and this won't change. I have no issue with it and no desire to change this.
