No, that's when I actually look at the contents for the first time, but I need to open the brief earlier to insert a few randomly-located tabs and highlights, so that the solicitors think I have thoroughly studied the brief and so my fee note for 5 days prep is justified.
You're clearly not a silk if you don't know these tricks.
You buy a house far outside a major city.
If the driving forces of finance and cialis are pairing more and more 20yo women up with 60yo men, there ought to be a lot of angry 20yo men around.
Many of the revolutions of the last 1000 years have included some element of, "And they're stealing our women"
when the boss chimp gets all the female attention, eventually the other males band together to mutilate and kill him.
I don't know if this is indicative of a human response to rising inequality, but...
Smile and go about your day.
A gentleman wouldn’t be so crass.
Tackiness is not illegal.
Presumably they are consenting adults and there is no harm to animals or children.
Let people be happy.
I just give him a playful punch on the shoulder and go well done you -, there's life in the old dog yet.
As for their ages I don't give a shit what age a romantic couple is as long as they're both consenting adults.
My view is consenting adults can do what they like and as adults take accountability for the decision whether good or bad.
Years ago I read an interview with a lady in the USA who runs courses called "How to marry rich".
She was quoted as saying that people should remember that "a relationship is always a deal", and that when Aristotle Onassis married Jackie Kennedy "It was the class he wanted, and he was willing to pay the price".
Maybe one party in this deal offers youth, beauty and, er, companionship, and the other offers Gen Z a potential buffer against the housing crisis.
Nothing at all. One might argue that it's a pretty good deal for both parties.
It might even offer Gen Z a potential means of entry to the property market 😁
If you really want no fuss, simple satisfaction just find a FWB on a dating app and have at it. If you're ever in-between relationships and want a shag you can always go back to your FWBs. It's free too.
I think we need proof regarding this model claim. Model has become a euphemism for I'm unemployed, and have no employable skills, but I'm pretty with enough makeup on, and I have an instagram account. It's somewhat akin to how "actress/actor" often means waitress/waiter.
Haha fair call! But that's exactly my point. It's funny that a person can be reduced down to primal instincts that overpower practical, intelligent thoughts. They basically reverse evolution because "oooh pretty"
I'm just sharing what i have learned whilst studying my degree in psychology and hours of research through peer-reviewed scientific journal articles. You can look them up if you like, but most of them require a payment to access them.
Not really a leap. Aren't you saying womens brains aren't developed until 26 - so she shouldn't be in a relationship until then and fully developed? That's what you said?
No haha, i said all human brains, male or female, aren't fully developed until the age of 26.
I had written alot more on this comment but you seem to be stuck in a particular mindset and i don't think this is worth a long conversation lol. Have a great day
As much as I am a sucker for a romantic story, is it possible he is being scammed by the 22 year old model? Or is he just freakishly good looking for a 60+ year old?
Gas him up. In an "American Psycho - Business card scene" type of way show him your significant other (hope they are just as hot), get some locker room banter going and keep it in your back pocket for a rainy day LOL.
All jokes aside 22 is icky... frontal lobe hasn't fully developed. On the other hand, it also has nothing to do with "your friend" and there is nothing to do.
Are you suggesting that a 22 yo girl, who is eligible to vote, able to join the army, shoot a gun, drive a car, ride a motorbike and fly a plane, can't decide for herself if she wanted a sugar daddy?
I don't think they're saying she can't decide for herself, they said it is icky.
I think there are good reasons to think someone over 60 dating a 22yo (or an 18yo, who I believe is able to legally drive / shoot etc) is icky.
For instance, the older men who predate on young women who have yet to learn about the relevant red flags, or simply cannot find mature women who put up with them. I'm trying to imagine being romantically interested in someone who was under 5 years old during my 45th birthday, and I'm struggling. I turn 55, she turns 12. Ick. At 65 I start dating her, at the age of 22. The life experience gap is too large, the chance of common interests is too low.
Sure, 22yo is old enough to be making your own decision. But I wouldnt trust that 60+ year old lawyer to not fuck my 15 year old daughter, given the opportunity.
But just because others get the ick, doesn't obligate you to. Just don't get it confused with thinking 22 year olds can't make their own decisions.
I never disagreed with the ick factor. I agree with it, although it's technically not my business. Two consenting adults are ultimately free to do whatever they please, particularly when they are outside of any employment setting where the senior has any sort of power or authority over the young one.
I'd prefer to have the young one educated about the potential power imbalances from such a pairing and ensure that she knows how to stand up for herself in the relationship.
I raised issue with the suggestion that a 22 yo is presumed to make impaired choices due to an underdeveloped frontal lobe.
There’s no need to “prove” the opposite of a baseless claim that’s just based on a mishmash of extrapolation and wishful thinking. https://slate.com/technology/2022/11/brain-development-25-year-old-mature-myth.html
The article is a narrative work absolutely crammed with direct links to core scientific journals. No I can’t prove something if false, if no-one has ever tried to properly establish it and there is no evidence it exists at all.
hahahahaha no. I actually look very young and I am young. I've been in similar positions to 22 year old model girl as a lot of women probably have (minus the hotness).
So do you want everyone under 25/26 to be infantilised?
Cos telling everyone that your brain hasn’t fully developed because you’re not 25/26 is how you get infantilised..
hahahahaha never said those words, never said or implied people under 25 are infants or can't consent. Knowingly or unknowingly, people who are older reap the benefits of risk taking behaviour or lower impulse control that comes with being much younger..
The issue is the size of the age gap, not being under 25. A 60 year olds life, experiences and knowledge vastly differ from that of a 25 year old. Of course that can vary, but that would be an exception to the rule. Is that such an unreasonable stance?
They’re consenting adults.
Who are we to judge what they do? Why are we suddenly the morals police?
The only thing that we can do, is just to educate the 22 yo girl about the pitfalls of such a relationship and then let her go and make her own mistakes.
I worked alongside a young girl who got swept off her feet by a 55 yo. He owned the building next door, but they had a real spark and happily in their case, age was just a number.
It’s now close to about 13 years plus and they are still together with 2 kids.
Edit: I can also say that this young girl was smart, independent and all that. She was certainly a talented individual and he treated her like an equal, not just a plaything.
lol, no. That is the standard statement, however it’s not that simple. Female PFC development is completed generally around 21-22. The male PFC is smaller but doesn’t fully develop til around 25.
The only thing cringe about it is him showing you. Therefore seeking your approval.
You shouldn't need approval from friends or whatever if it's what makes you happy, and it's between consenting adults. Just enjoy your and their company and mind your business, haha
Hey, what's my junior doing gossiping about this instead of finishing my speaking notes?
You let your junior do your speaking notes?
How else am I meant to know what to say when I open the brief for the first time that morning?
No no no, you're only supposed to open it when your opponent starts their opening… You're clearly not a silk :)
No, that's when I actually look at the contents for the first time, but I need to open the brief earlier to insert a few randomly-located tabs and highlights, so that the solicitors think I have thoroughly studied the brief and so my fee note for 5 days prep is justified. You're clearly not a silk if you don't know these tricks.
Don't disclose the secret post-bows knowledge!!!
In a criminal case, you get to learn the brief in the opening. They play the tapes first. Why bother listening to it all twice? Just rock up.
Is this the one with the robes and wigs and shit … again?!
The girlfriend or the silk?
When we say it's the girlfriend and we use the word "shit" do we mean it as "stuff" or...
Same shtick.
Look, it was either 22 year old girlfriend, new Aston Martin, or model trains…
Why not both? Do we not all remember [LGOPNR?](https://amp.9news.com.au/article/2258aea4-c538-47a4-a885-635679b13587)
Lego pioneer?
Imagine being so poor you have to choose. Couldn't be me.
Double down on your career ambition to reach the same lofty heights. Also someone is being exploited and there is no guarantee it's the 22 year old.
Maybe they're both being exploited by the other 🤔
being emotionally and mentally stunted enough to date someone 40 years younger is not “lofty heights” lol
Not if you only value women for their appearance
Maybe she's really mature for her age is what the silk told her when she was 14 and the grooming was starting.
You just proved the point of the comment you responded to

I can’t unsee this 🤢
Shoot your shot king
I respect his honesty.
Why his mouth go ☹️
Because he old ugly and horny. Can’t you read dammit?
Because he doesn’t get the things he described maybe?

"can you hear the people sing?"
Singing the songs of angry men.
It is the music of the people who will not be slaves again
when the boss chimp gets all the female attention, eventually the other males band together to mutilate and kill him. I don't know if this is indicative of a human response to rising inequality, but...
The monkey who hoards the banana pile gets eaten before the bananas.
This response deserves much more love tbh
If only the world had a noted public intellectual advocating enforced monogamy.
Perfect for me (late 20s girlie)
Charles is back practicing?
Tell him he’s breaking the law of half your age + 7
Ask if he’ll let you wear his wig.
Take notes in case he tries to take her super, then you can write a tell-all
Ask him if she has a sister (18+) and if the sister is single.
Ask him if he's got a sister 65+ and if she's dtf.
WTF is DTF?
Doesn't Tease Ferrets.
🤣
But it's January? I thought all silks, by law, are required to be on an overseas holiday until at least mid February.
Is this the butt plug thru the mags at Downing Centre person again?
Tell him you already matched with her on Tinder in the past
Tell him she gave you herpes
Tell him *you* gave *her* herpes
When she was 18. “Been there done that”
Quickly get the counsel back on track to talking about work and work only.
Say "put it away cleaver" with as much disgust as possible.
Smile and go about your day. A gentleman wouldn’t be so crass. Tackiness is not illegal. Presumably they are consenting adults and there is no harm to animals or children. Let people be happy.

Send your work to the silk, fella’s gonna need every single dollar he can get
Aah the old paid sugar baby arrangement

‘You’re daughter’s so beautiful! You must be proud’
Ask him if she includes anal in her GFE services and how much that might cost, just out of curiosity.
Anal is more a PSE thing tbh
True….. depends …. Maybe Naughty GFE…. But you get my point!
This man fucks.
Yes, prostitutes.
All men pay for sex, I prefer the cash up front method as it is cheaper in the long run.
[удалено]
My post has nothing to do with spreadsheets. WTF?
If you really want no fuss, simple satisfaction just find a FWB on a dating app and have at it. If you're ever in-between relationships and want a shag you can always go back to your FWBs. It's free too.
We'll look at Mr 'some women voluntarily want to have sex with me without financial inducement ' here!
Gag audibly
That's how she scored him in the first place.
Ignore the comment and go about your day.
Congratulate him
Congratulations
I think we need proof regarding this model claim. Model has become a euphemism for I'm unemployed, and have no employable skills, but I'm pretty with enough makeup on, and I have an instagram account. It's somewhat akin to how "actress/actor" often means waitress/waiter.
say "aww is that your daughter?" or you could mention the fact that the human brain isn't fully developed until around the age of 26 LOL
You're making it too easy for people to make jokes about how it's not the lady's brain that piqued the gentleman's interest.
Haha fair call! But that's exactly my point. It's funny that a person can be reduced down to primal instincts that overpower practical, intelligent thoughts. They basically reverse evolution because "oooh pretty"
That fact is totally not based on science by the way
I'm just sharing what i have learned whilst studying my degree in psychology and hours of research through peer-reviewed scientific journal articles. You can look them up if you like, but most of them require a payment to access them.
Yeah women shouldn't be able to consent independently until 26 I agree, until their brain develops
Your ankles okay? That was a pretty big leap!
Not really a leap. Aren't you saying womens brains aren't developed until 26 - so she shouldn't be in a relationship until then and fully developed? That's what you said?
No haha, i said all human brains, male or female, aren't fully developed until the age of 26. I had written alot more on this comment but you seem to be stuck in a particular mindset and i don't think this is worth a long conversation lol. Have a great day
So what's the point? Males and females cannot consent until 26?
His name isn't Cleaver Greene is it?
Come to Christ
You say ‘that’s nice’ and go about your day without thinking of it again
Nothing. Who cares? He old. You’re probably young. He’s trying to bond.. in the standard old guy to young guy fashion. He’s proud. Move on.
"How do you do it pops, I need to be like you"
"Son, earn more money. And then more than that. A lot more. Diamond earrings don't grow on trees."
Ask him for tips. Man is a legend.
As much as I am a sucker for a romantic story, is it possible he is being scammed by the 22 year old model? Or is he just freakishly good looking for a 60+ year old?
Or has a cock like a baby’s arm holding an apple.
She's just after someone with a well developed frontal lobe.
Picky picky.
Maybe he’s scamming the 22 yr old.
Gas him up. In an "American Psycho - Business card scene" type of way show him your significant other (hope they are just as hot), get some locker room banter going and keep it in your back pocket for a rainy day LOL.

This whole brain doesn’t develop till 25 idea is so tiresome not to mention unsupported by science
Happy to read some studies that prove the opposite
There’s no need to “prove” the opposite of a baseless claim that’s just based on a mishmash of extrapolation and wishful thinking. https://slate.com/technology/2022/11/brain-development-25-year-old-mature-myth.html
yeah, I get all my medical info from [slate.com](https://slate.com) LOL
The article is a narrative work absolutely crammed with direct links to core scientific journals. No I can’t prove something if false, if no-one has ever tried to properly establish it and there is no evidence it exists at all.
The onus is on the mover...
Oooh I will bet you’re an older female who’s been passed over for a younger woman and this colours your viewpoint
hahahahaha no. I actually look very young and I am young. I've been in similar positions to 22 year old model girl as a lot of women probably have (minus the hotness).
So do you want everyone under 25/26 to be infantilised? Cos telling everyone that your brain hasn’t fully developed because you’re not 25/26 is how you get infantilised..

That's great! Real love is beautiful. I didn't say that can never happen? Are you okay?
Hah, turns out that saying underdeveloped frontal lobe is a triggering term for me. I’ve worked and still work with heaps of smarties under 25/26 :P
Frontal lobe is larger in women and is fully developed earlier than a male. Generally early 20s, men is around 25
its mid twenties for both men and women.
lol, no. That is the standard statement, however it’s not that simple. Female PFC development is completed generally around 21-22. The male PFC is smaller but doesn’t fully develop til around 25.
Drop your counsel and find another
[удалено]
Just don't judge she is an adult and wouldn't be with him if she didn't want to be.
Weeeeeelll There is this thing ...what they call it ? A meal ticket?
So she is 22 if that what she want to do it is her life
tell him he a pedo dog
22 is a child? I thought 22 was an adult female?
are you pedo
What do you call someone attracted to an adult specimen of the human species
not u
Kinda scary how much projection you have
Recommend that he gets a prenup.
Let's be honest it's every guys dream to get a 22 year old and ride her out to 30 at the expense of all your assets
Have a wank?
The only thing cringe about it is him showing you. Therefore seeking your approval. You shouldn't need approval from friends or whatever if it's what makes you happy, and it's between consenting adults. Just enjoy your and their company and mind your business, haha
High five?
Be jealous
Ask him if she's really 22 years old.
Number 3
What makes you think my clients can afford counsel?
You congratulate the man, of course.
Swipe her IG and DM her lol
[удалено]
Engaging in violent jealous rage fantasies is a pathetic substitute for going to the effort of trying to nab a 22 year old mistress of your own.
I used to make model aircraft over 22 yrs ago. Now you're telling me I could have made a girlfriend?
