I'm sure it would've bothered me too.

It's not that people don't find me attractive, because they do. But people don't realize how old I am. In fact, when I listed my birthday in my bio, I intentionally left off the year. Somehow, I'm afraid that would affect people's attitudes towards me.

It always pisses me off when I hear people marvel about the fact that Madonna is still reinventing herself and still going strong at 42. What most people don't realize is that I'm older than her! I wonder what these same people would do if I told them my real age? Faint?

Sorry if I'm getting off on a tangent, but this is a sensitive area for me too.
