Most women who reach that magic age barrier of 40 start to become a little less likely to look in the mirror for fear of finding another wrinkle or one more grey hair. They start to move into one piece swimsuits instead of that tiny bikini that appealed so much only a few years before. But 40 needn't be a barrier if you still "think" young. Age is nothing more than a state of mind and many men find an older woman becomes much more sexually aware as she approaches middle age.

The internet is full of young and perfectly shaped females who could have all come out of the same mould but believe it or not ladies, its not what most men are looking for. If a woman has taken reasonable care of herself, with exercise and sensible eating, her figure actually improves with age. Its curvier, it's softer and it's warmer to the touch.

Dee is 48 but it didn't deter her from starting a modeling career. Now in her second marriage, she has lost the negativity which came from years of an unhappy marriage and has now found a partner who has made her feel a woman all over again. Her husband has actively encouraged her to model and loves the photographs that she produces. She admits that some of her pictures are a little naughty but she says "If the young girls can do it, why shouldn't I. My husband has supported me every step of the way and often comes with me to a shoot."

After a year of being photographed by a host of different photographers, Dee has launched her own website. "It's more to prove I can do it than making money" she says, "and perhaps it will encourage other ladies who are over approaching 50 to believe in themselves more."
