In case you missed it on 60 Minutes, this is what Andy Rooney thinks about women over 40.

"As I grow in age, I value women over 40 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:

A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, 'What are you thinking?' She doesn't care what you think.
If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do, and it's usually more interesting.

Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it.

Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40.

Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart. Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk if you are acting like one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her!

Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress.

Ladies, I apologize. For all those men who say, 'Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?', here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!

Is Andy Rooney still alive?


If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

The man speaks the truth (says the over 40 year old woman).

"I feel the same way about homosexuals as I do about cigarette smokers. I wouldn't want to spend time in a small room with one, but they don't bother me otherwise."

"Homosexual unions...are well known to lead quite often to premature death."

Some other words of wisdom from Mr. Rooney.

Yep, he was squeezing melons in NYC on April 13 for a CBS special. Hey at 89, he's probably done a lot more than we'll every do!

Indeed. I think that's the first time I've heard some of those truths coming from the mouth of a male.

"Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40."


True.

It's good to know that women over 40 are appreciated by a man who is almost 90.

This may be because I'm in my twenties, but he makes it sound like all women under 40 act like 5 year olds. I appreciate the sentiment though.

Andy Rooney never said this.

You can still hate him, Janey. Updated On: 4/16/08 at 03:32 PM

Yes, it is because you're in your twenties.
