Baby boomer women so often are portrayed as old, frumpy women. Well, NOT. I do not accept that as a label for my friends and me. We are hot, fun women! Bikinis and Bifocals women! And we love lingerie just as well as the thin hot young models do.
It troubles me when the ads etc are only for young women. We love sexy items too you know. As well as our husbands!! I loved the line in the move Eat, Pray Love, when Julie Robert’s character, Liz, says to her friend (who was worried about gaining weight and her boyfriend’s reaction) “When a man is with a naked women he does not see any flaws, he just sees that he is in room with a naked woman!” How true, I loved that line and the simple truth behind it.
So this Valentine ’s Day wear the lingerie, have fun. Hey, my husband didn’t even notice a new chair in the family room for two days; I know he won’t notice a few pounds! Happy Valentine’s day.

As a man, I can say that you are completely off base here. Men DO and WILL notice. This line from "Eat, Pray, Love" is a feel-good line meant to stroke the egos and confidence of the predominantly female audience that saw the film. Lingerie is great, and any man who loves you enough to be with you probably won't care about a few pounds...at least not out loud.
Thanks for your comment. I think we are saying the same thing right? Men will appreciate and notice the nice lingerie. What they will not notice or care about is perhaps a few extra pounds they will apreciate the sexy lingerie and the fact she carried and wanted to do this. Thanks again, hope this carifies.
