the Images of Silver
 
Silver, being a term used loosely. We have some threads started for posting images of butches,femmes and trans. I posted,asking for images of our community over the age of 40,the older the better. I then thought, why not start a thread of it? Why shouldnt younger community members see us in our glory of aging? Its a beautiful process! So here it is, and I am starting with myself....as you see, my silver is all covered up...

If I knew how to post a pic I would,but I dont,I can email on to someone if they know how to post the pic.

Soft*Silver 10-30-2011 01:30 PM

LOL, to all those who are balking at the use of the term silver, should we change it to a different term? I used 40 as a starting point because 40 is the "teen years" of the mature crowd...

no more photos...how sad...

Qwirky, you are BEAUTIFUL!!!!

clay 10-30-2011 01:37 PM

but I DO fit in the "SILVER FOX" crowd and I OWN it...and I wear it...proudly. Gives me character...smiles....

The_Lady_Snow 10-30-2011 01:57 PM

I'm not balking I just don't agree it fits me as a 40 something who also doesn't see it as teen years cause those are the years we've done and did our dumb shit, I'm a woman who's loving being 40 and everything that will, has and hasn't come with that part of my life line. Know what I mean?:)

Toughy 10-30-2011 02:33 PM

tapu............I don't need to lighten up at all.......please don't ever leave me a reputation comment again


(I hate bullshit crappy reputation stuff)

I'm almost 50 and there is no snow on the roof top not even colored just a sprig or two here and there LOL. Looking back I'd have to agree with you Tia the 40's have been a combination of learning years just as the teen years were. Actually I was telling a young adult the other day, it doesn't matter how old you are, at each age you can look back at 5 or 10 years and see what you've learned, and go damn I was stupid. Then again I guess there are those who learned everything they needed to know in life in kindergarten. I don't have a recent picture to prove my lack of silver hair but I have great experiences both good and bad that make me claim and embrace being silver. Thanks for the thread Tia.

Thank you for the compliment!

Miss Scarlett 10-30-2011 03:30 PM

Great thread Tia!

i'm 52 and have several strands of silver which i don't mind at all. But i still colour my hair because a few years ago my natural dark brown decided to lighten and take on a wierd reddish tone that i don't care for at all.

i like the idea that my 40s were "teen years." Like Blade i did a lot of learning and growing...thankfully i was much wiser than in my "original" teen years...

Sachita 10-30-2011 03:37 PM

If I didn't color it, it would be heavy salt and pepper. I'm getting very close to just letting it go- color, length, all of it.

I read this thread and then remembered that I needed to turn the water off and move some trees in the greenhouse so it does freeze. I have this old barn coat on, my hair pinned up, no make up, jeans and crocs. I cut my finger and I've got blood dripping down. The lawn tractor gets stuck in the mud coming up the hill and the tractor dump is attached with citrus trees. But right where it got stuck there was there this big ray of sun that was beating down on my face. I sat there for 10 minutes enjoying it, stuck in the mud thinking "Now this would be a beautiful picture," This is what 50 looks like.

Rockinonahigh 10-30-2011 03:43 PM

I have little grey hair even at 64,I gess im fourtunat in that cause many of my friends are pretty snowy on top of the mountain...maybe one day just not today.

And,if you have something private to say to me like that, could you not post it in the thread? It's appreciated.
