In my 30s i slept with a woman in her 60s and yes, it was great! She was amazing and i will always love her. Shes so bubbly. Saddly we moved to different sides of the city, then eventually different states
OK. It probably wasn't a real letter, but an article he wrote and published to show how clever he is. Regardless, he was very insightful and clever. He gives 8 reasons. (1) Better conversation. (2) Better friendship. (3) No risk of pregnancy. (4) More discrete, and less likely to be a scandal if it were found out. (5) Probably better at sex because she's got experience. (6) It's less sinful. (7) You won't have regrets. (8) Neither will she.
My wife (and best friend) was 20% older than me when we married. 46 years later I am catching up and she is only 6% older. I hope she waits for me, as I did for her, when I pass her.
He was very lucky the experiment didn't end up killing him, a full-fledged lightning strike would probably have been fatal.
Contrary to popular belief, Franklin's kite was not struck by lightning, which would probably have resulted in serious injury or death. Instead, an electrical charge was induced on the kite by its proximity to an oppositely charged storm cloud. — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kite_experiment

I'm experienced... I'm also grateful to bang dudes better looking than Ben Franklin.

Oh is this why at this point I have so many younger men coming onto me?! Problem is, they don't know what they're doing lol.

Older women are smart enough to know you're an asshole because all men are assholes. That's what I appreciates about them.

Ben Franklin was the greatest manwhore that Paris has ever known, and that's saying something.
DJOldguy
Have to agree, always went after older women, was great fun and Ben was right, they do appreciate it, but now, there aren't any.

He just said that to leave all the young Latinas for himself.

As an older woman, I appreciate his support even if it's from that long ago.
Zetor

He didn't discover electricity he just used his experiment to prove that lightning consisted of electricity
