美国CBS 60 Minutes (六十分钟 )主持人Andy Rooney对40岁以上的女人的看法:
As I grow in age, I value women over 40 most of all.随著年龄增长, 我越来越珍惜40岁以上的女人
Here are just a few reasons why:为什么呢?
A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask,40岁以上的女人不会在半夜把你吵醒, 然后问你:
"What are you thinking?"你在想什么?
She doesn't care what you think.她才不在乎你在想什么。
If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game,40岁以上的女人如果不想看球赛
she doesn't sit around whining about it.她不会坐在你旁边抱怨东抱怨西
She does something she wants to do, and it's usually more interesting.
她会去做她想做的、更有趣的事情\

Women over 40 are dignified.40岁以上的女人稳重自持
They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera不会在歌剧院或高级餐厅里
or in the middle of an expensive restaurant.跟你大呼小叫
Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you当然，如果你罪有应得，她们也可能神不知鬼不觉地
if they think they can get away with it.一枪把你给毙了。
Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved.熟女不吝於赞美 (不管是不是实至名归)
They know what it's like to be unappreciated.因为她们亲身体验过被忽略的滋味
Women get psychic as they age.女人越老越通灵
You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40.你永远不需要向40岁以上的女人忏悔
Once you get past a wrinkle or two,只要能够对皱纹视而不见
a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.40岁以上的女人远比年轻美眉性感
Older women are forthright and honest.熟女直接又诚实
They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk if you are acting like one.如果你是蠢蛋 她们会马上叫你滚蛋
You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.你完全不需要伤脑筋揣摩她的心意
Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons.40岁以上的女人有很多优点

Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal.40岁以上的男人呢?
For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman over 40,相对於每一个性感、迷人的40岁以上的女人
there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants就有一个秃头凸肚的熟男
making a fool of himself with some 20-year old waitress.厚脸皮地跟小他20岁的美眉调情
Ladies, I apologize.女士们，请容许我在这儿
For all those men who say,帮你们说句公道话:
"Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?",那些说只想喝免费的牛奶而不愿买头母牛回家的男人
here's an update for you.实在是太搞不清楚状况了
Nowadays 80414f women are against marriage.今天有80%的女人宁愿不结婚
Why?为什么呢?
Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig因为她们终於发现不需要为了一根香肠
just to get a little sausage!买回整只猪!
