I just told my classes on Friday that I was old enough to be their mom, but wasn't, so they should change the word "Parent" to "Teacher". (I'd signed their forms in the wrong place, oops). I need to follow this up by reminding them that I won't be picking up after them either, because I'm not their mom.
Most undergrads are too young. Some of them don't act it, and that can be a little frightening sometimes. All high school students are too young; some of them don't act it, either, which is REALLY frightening.
Yes, they are. Witness the following exchange from today: Professor: "So, why are you interested in astronomy?" Student: "Well, I've been interested in it since I went to see Apollo 13 when I was nine..." Me and professor: "... nine. ... AUGH!"
See, undergrads are perfect for me, since a good portion of them comprise one half of the proper age category for me (they have to be 5 years (+- 1 year) older or younger than me, with one exception).
My experience has been that it's always the older girls who are better...and that when they were my age I wouldn't have liked them as much (or not as all in one case). =P
Then again, you're not 21. So nevermind... ::shrug::
No, no, you're absolutely right. Older girls ARE better. But in my case, you can have what you think of as an "older woman" and still have them be too young for me. 8)
You should date women from the age range of, say, 24-26. Forever. Hee.
Some of it is just that there are new people around, actually.
Hmm... I'm an undergrad. I wonder if this makes me too young, or if perhaps it makes the rest of them not too young for me. I think the only way to be sure is to conduct some experiments.

They're not too young until I say they are...
Date: 2003-09-08 02:26 pm (UTC)...and they're too damn young.
This year's freshmen were *6 YEARS OLD* when I was a freshman.
Too young

Anyway, you're a special exception either way.
