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,
TS Jamie
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!
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.
'Cuz if we're going on aches and pains, some days I'm 90! LOL
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...
..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.
And close the door behind you.
Yes, I could see that.
