"Act Your Age, Not Your Shoe Size..."

Does anyone remember the Prince song where he sang, "Act your age Momma/Not your shoe size..." so many years ago? The song and verse comes to mind while I roam the city seeing men and women and boys and girls.

I've written a blog about this before, but I continue seeing the chaos and utter disparity when I explore the city's streets, malls and even when I drop my children off at school. Young girls dressing very "Adult" in high heels, low skits and pounds of makeup, fake hair and nails. Then on the other hand, you have men, who are well in their "Adult Years" dressing in sneakers, sagging jeans and oversized sport team jerseys.

What???? It seems as though no one wants to be who they truly are nor do they want to act/dress their own ages.

These young ladies need to understand, they shouldn't really rush to get to those older years. They'll have plenty of time being "grown" without hurrying. On the other hand, the older men need to understand their time's come and gone. Move on... You can't hangout at that period of your aging forever. Please...act your age, not your shoe size.



Ladies! When you dress and act older, you attract older men who are looking to do things older people do.



Men! When you dress younger, your attempting to attract younger women, but you want to do older people things. Grow up! Both of you!

Be who you ate supposed to be.
