Carol Vorderman has culled her lovers from five down to three.

[NovemberMorn]

Carol Vorderman has had to slash the number of lovers she has down from five to three, admitting: “Times are hard.”
She now only has a trio of three long-term “special” male friends on the go after previously enjoying the attention of five.
The maths whiz has always been open about loving her friends with benefits.

So...
Is it reasonable for a woman of a certain age to have multiple lovers....not to mention the energy.

Is it unreasonable, immoral, and just plain tacky?

One is more than enough

That's very random on the part if CV - why does she have to tell the world? Sounds like she’s having a great old time!

'I'll take three on the top and two from the bottom"

I can't even see it in the article and have never heard about it before so it doesn't seem like she's constantly shouting about it - but good on her, I like her even more now! Why shouldn't she have an unconventional love life if that makes her happy? And why should she keep it secret like it's shameful? You can think she's tacky, I doubt she's bothered.

She has been talking about her 'friends with benefits' for years.

I don’t believe her, she’s an attention seeking woman who doesn’t want to grow old gracefully

And? It's her life. We women really are our own worst enemy. We need learn to live our own life and unhoick the judgeypants.

If an elderly man bragged about having 3 or 5 women on the go, no doubt men in general would think what a great guy he was, I am betting women would see it differently.

She’s been quite for a bit so needs a bit of something to put her back in the spotlight
drumming up a bit of interest

Double standards.

I'm curious....would you make the same comment if it was a man in the public eye advertising he had 3 or 5 female lovers?

😆

not sure I believe it either

The OP asked the same question, no reply.

The men in question could be old, ugly and grateful, who knows.
It's not hard for women to collect men, if they are open to variety.

She made it all up just for attention.

Nah they’ll be young studs.

It’s fucking unreasonable to judge a woman of ANY (consenting) age for ANY (legal, consenting) relationships. Unreasonable, immoral and just plain tacky to be so judgmental.

Personally I find it questionable to publicise one’s sex life , but presumably the lovers in question have no issue and it’s refreshing to hear of ‘women of a certain age’ (FFS , what ageist shit) being open and guilt free in the face of the cats-bummed.

Calm down ... I'm not sure why women get so upset at other women when age is mentioned. It strikes me that some women don't want to face the fact that people INCLUDING WOMEN...do actually get old.
Embrace it instead of trying to pretend it's not important.

It's been asked a couple of times...

Would all the 'Whoohoo, good on Carol' brigade think it was great if an old man in the public eye gave repeated interviews bragging about the fact that he had several women on the go?

People do get old, yes,

But why does it affect your view of their morality, tackiness etc?

You calm down - about Carol V's sex life!

Absolutely fine for an adult to have as many lovers on the go as they want, provided everyone involved is aware of the arrangement and enthusiastically consenting. I don't find it immoral / tacky or any other perjorative for women (or men) to have the kind of sex that makes them happy, so long as they're not hurting anyone.

Do I personally care? I do not, because it's boring and irrelevant to me.

So if people get old, why get so upset when age is mentioned.

Very telling that you didn't answer the question re males.

Because you referenced her behaviour as her being 'a woman of a certain age' . As if her age makes a difference as to how she should be judged - if at all. Why did you mention her age?

And I am allowed to comment on one aspect of your OP which IS mentioned in your OP, and leave comments about comparison with men's behavipur to the many pp who have posted.

You put up an OP - be prepared for a range of responses.

I have answered the responses....and thanks for the interest.

However, you seem unwilling to answer a counter question that's been asked throughout the thread several times..

Let's just call it double standards, and move on.

Well, I'm happy to answer it. I don't care how many simultaneous sex partners someone has, as long as they all know about each other and are OK with it. I also don't care about age, as long as they're all adults.

I'd find it gross from a man and gross from a woman.

From that particular woman, I don't really believe it anyway.

That woman is such a try-hard.
