Personally, I don't really find this offensive in its current form. Had he come on here and posted this himself, then yes, it would be worth ripping him a new one.

I just see this as a conversation between friends. It wasn't intended for my ears, so I'm not going to take it as a personal offense. Hell, it may not even be how he feels about 50 year old women...he might have just said it to make a point to his young friend. We can't know, because we don't know him.

I do think that perhaps smurf should have thought twice before posting his exact words on a forum where a large % of the audience is over 50, though.
