16. As with sooooo many other things

especially those involving sex or sexuality, it's completely subjective.

Male A could say it to or about Female B and B would take it as a compliment, while Female C (or even Male D) would be offended. By the same token, Female B might be offended if it were said by Male D.

Also, if it were expressed as MWIFSA (Mature Woman I Find Sexually Attractive), it would convey the same meaning but without the same potential for offensiveness.

Ya pays yer money and ya takes yer chance. :shrug:
