How can she sleep with him....

[Hereforthebeer]

Mick Jagger is 72.. his girlfriend is 29. She is pregnant.

43 years younger than him.... is she in it for the cash or is it possible for her to actually fancy him?

I just don't believe it.

I think as you get older i'm sure you find your age group attractive. But at 29 would you find a 72 year old attractive? Yuck...

AIBU

Well as she's pregnant I don't think there's much disputing she does indeed have sex with him.

Well I am 29 and I absolutely couldn't sleep with Mick Jagger! Cynical as it may sound, I highly doubt she'd be sleeping with him if he was a 72 year old retired shopkeeper.

I don't think I'd sleep with him if I too were 72.

He looks like he needs a good wash.

No - I m 53 and would struggle with your average 72 year old.

However, I imagine he can be very interesting, worldly, influential and is probably extremely charismatic (quite a heady combination) so possibly she is seeing beyond the physical without actually being a gold digger.

I highly doubt she'd be sleeping with him if he was a 72 year old retired shopkeeper.

100% this. I feel my ovaries recoiling in disgust when I see those two.

Hasn't his fellow bandmate also recently had a child with someone young enough to be his grand daughter too?

There's 23 years between my dm and stepdad. They've also been together for 26 years now - if they're happy what's the issue?

Yanbu but prepare to be roasted for saying it. It's a gourmet meal ticket for her to have his child. I can't imagine she is sexually attracted to him physically but I'm sure she manages to drum up the enthusiasm from somewhere. No doubt they both know where they stand. Good luck to them.

I am in my early 40s and cannot.imagine.having.sex with a 72 year old. Please. I guess MJ offers a potent cocktail of power, fame and money.

Apparently woman find powerful men more attractive - biological rose tinted glasses. Something to do with the urge to be looked after by the alpha male.
I don't find much older men attractive no matter how 'powerful' though so personally can't see it, each to their own though.

Tom Sellock. Morgan freeman. Harrison Ford. Sean connory.

There are a lot of sexy men in their 70s. Although much jagger isn't to my personal taste I do love an older man. Lots of people do.

However, I imagine he can be very interesting, worldly, influential and is probably extremely charismatic (quite a heady combination) so possibly she is seeing beyond the physical without actually being a gold digger.

I can vividly remember finding 40ish men incredibly sexy when I was in my 20s - I swooned over their beautiful suits, gravelly voices and the ice clinking in their scotch - but I could not have possibly found someone in their 70s attractive. Not a chance.

Well, given this is his eighth baby with his 5th partner I think that she's not under any illusions that she is the one.

I think someone put it very succinctly on another thread: "so, can you tell us what it was that first attracted you to the billionaire nick Jagger?" .

I do prefer an older man, maybe 25 years older would be my limit (thinking Daniel Craig, Idris Elba)....but 40-odd years older is very weird!
The money must have something to do with it - that or, he's still a really good shag even at 72! Suppose he's had lots of practise

Him, Iggie Pop, Steven Tyler all have a certain appeal.

I'm in my 40s and fancy a few musicians in their 60s Adam Ant I'm looking at you. I'll let you know in a few years if I still fancy them.

I couldn't fuck Mick Jagger with someone else's

I find it hard to believe she fancies him.

I'll probably get slated for this but I think it's terrible to have a baby at 72.

'What first attracted you to the multi millionaire musician?'

Isn't this why doggy style was invented ?

I'm early 30's and although I suspect that in the 70's age range there would be a very small pool of people I would sleep with (if I was single) if I met someone I liked I would!

Iv never had an issue with age my dp is 15 years older, my friends are 15-50 years older (apart from 1)

i would not sleep with mick fucking jagger though

I'm 27 and have felt physically sick when I've had sexual remarks from men Jagger's age. Actually sleeping with one is beyond my comprehension. I'm sure she wouldn't have initially gone there if he was a lollypop man, but surely in order to go the whole hog, as it were, she must actually have come to love him?

*if I liked somone

I know in todays 'any thing goes' age one shouldn't comment, but I think it is utterly revolting (for both of them) what is she thinking other than $ and he should have some dignity.

The implication in the press is that it's an 'accident' in so much as Mick is 'totally unfazed' by it all.
I don't think we should be ageist about being a parent. There are people who are parents at 18 and make a right hash of it, even though they may be around longer for their kids. There are kids who lose their parents to cancer when they are young. So, okay this child may have MJ as a dad of some sorts till they are maybe 15 or so , but just think of all the kids who brought up by a) single parents or b) widowed parents who don't have a long term relationship with their father.

I also think it's a bit shallow to say you don't fancy MJ cos he's 72.Okay he's got more than his fair share of wrinkles and doesn't look like an oil painting but he's probably got more going from him in terms of desirability for some women than a 30 year old who stacks shelves in Tesco, or does any other kind of mundane 9-5 job.
