Perusing, s I find myself so often doing, Eros-NY, Cityvibe, NYC Action, Backpage.com, Craigs List and other like sites, I notice a fair number of women describing themselves as mature, even women in their mid-20s.

Now, i've got 2 nephews, both in their  30s, and i have many fond memories of when those little punks were adorable toddlers and preschoolers, etc...,so a woman in her middle 20s, a woman younger than my nephews,  just doesn't seem to make if for me as "mature."

Commonsensically [which ain't too common for me] i imagine that when a woman in her 20s bills herself as mature, she's trying to convey a sense of professionalism and a business-like attitude and  talents, that she's not  a giggly 19-year old new to providing [not that there's anyhing wrong with that, either].  So, why not just say "professional" or "business-like"?  Too impersonal-sounding, perhaps?

So, whattaya think?  What's a credible age at whih a provider can justly describe herself as "mature"?  Or is this more a state of mind and approach to providing that it is a chronological age?

I'm going with the latter, but  still i've got doubts about any woman younger than her mid-30s justly describing herself as mature.

As someone who is mature by everyone's standards I have to say someone who is 29 doesnt even come close.  35 should be the very youngest to call themselves mature.

I am 33 and describe myself as mature. I think for many men, the prevailing rule of thumb is that any woman over 30 qualifies as a "mature" lady.

How to tell a womans real age from her ad...

Mature = old
Courtesan = old
Gracious = old
Refined = old
Elegant = old
Classic = old

College Student = late 20's
Just turned 18 = late 20's
21 = late 20's
28 = late 30'
32 = 40's or 50's, maybe 60's...

and "19" = 14 1/2 with big boobs...

Giggle,

PS: Jessica is really a 23 year old college senior, and... I lie about my age.

if one bases one's age on a state of mind...then I'm forever young!

I had a similar discussion with a friend of mine a few days ago. I think that it is more a state of mind.
I tend to call myself mature although I am only 25. But that does not mean i lie about my age. I like to let people know that i don't belong to the 'normal' mid twenties age group.
Maturity can come sooner then your 30th birthday...

Zoe Zane.  She posts frequently on Escort Blogs if anyone wants to see what I'm talking about.

I'd say that she pushing the big 6-0, but there's no way in hell I'd describe her as mature.  (And I mean that in a good way.)

Mind is definately a factor over age.

..are usually two different numbers altogether.

When a provider indicates in her advertisement that she is mature, instinctively, I am thinking age, not attitude and approach. Yes, while I readily admit that some 24 year old women can be much more mature and professional in their approach than 44 year old women, I believe in this hobby men consider "mature" to refer to age. I would hope that when I see a provider she was ALWAYS mature in the professional sense; that she treated me with the same respect and discretion that she would expect from me.

Having said that, when I see a woman classify herself as mature, I think she is over 40.

Admittedly, it does lack a certain cachet.

I usually think of businesslike as meaning professional, but there are plenty of exceptions.

'Cuz if we're going on aches and pains, some days I'm 90!  LOL

And close the door behind you.

Yes, I could see that.
