Many of us have found a comfort level here that I for one have not experienced on any of the other boards - general board for sure and even the regional boards.
Must be that we are all so mature (LOL) and really do have a genuine respect for each other, even if we disagree.

there are so many mean and disgruntled on other boards. This is a little slice of heaven to be able to have coherent conversations.

You get attacked if you are trying to help someone.

Conversation

It takes some longer than others, but by 60, we' Ve discovered that sex is not really about getting one's rocks off, but rather about communicating.  That is why it is called intercourse.

Old folks rule, and occasionally droll!

I also find that many of the ladies on here are so helpful and genuine.  Seen a lot of advice that I have added to my total experience.

This board too is not without drama and politics. As a frequent reader, I have seen many topics deleted. Yes there are a few here with power issues. As an Older group we have interests that may not fall within the "normal" hobby guidelines, but then again, participants here are not the norm. Perhaps our hobby philosophy is not understood by the youngins! Because of our age, you would think our culture would be live and let live, At least in my upbringing I was taught to make love not war.  
Anyone interested in making love?

Agree with just about everything that has been said.  As someone who has been around the block for a few times, it's nice to find an age appropriate board to share thoughts, comments and the good and less than good experiences we have all had. And it sure is different than when we were in our twenties or thirties, but from my perspective  it's also a lot better. The  quality of the experience and the heightened awareness makes it a real pleasure especially when you can find a provider that understands and appreciates that.  A tip of the hat to all those ladies who understands the needs of us "older" guys.  I've had incredible experiences with some of the best and look forward to more......after all I'm only in my mid sixties!  Hope to stay active for many more years.....

Well....

I'm under 60, heck i'm under 30 but I share the sentiment of the last sentence. Overall great post....I do "run" here after rolling my eyes enough at the GD board (when it's up lol) and lately the newbie board. This is now one of my fave boards .

I find myself very drawn to this board and the conversations that go on. Some of you have described yourselves and what you want from the hobby in a way that I completely agree with.
For that I thank you all.

When I started on this board what has exactly brought everyone here is what I hoped for. I think everyone is in perfect harmony with how to get along while still showing your personality. Nothing can be more intimate than sex so why wouldn't personal conversations pertaining about life and this subject be accepted, challenged or ignored. Good conversation is what makes this forum successful and it's the general public here that manages that duty within the guidelines of the law "TER". We really haven't had problems of any type that could be considered confrontational in any way but just good banter.

I love coming here and seeing so many friendly folks.   "Group Hug"

Agreed! Although I have awhile before I hit 60, I learned that it's impossible to please everyone, absolutely impossible, so don't even try Those you get along with, great... those you don't... forget 'em, they don't know what they're missing! Once you are totally comfortable with yourself as a person, both inside & out.. world watch out!

And that's what I love about being over 60.  (a few other things too)

Kisses,
