Sometimes, the woman is not much older psychologically than the boy is in her developmental stage,” says clinical psychologist Judy Kuriansky. “She has arrested development. So she’s having sex with a 14-year-old, and in her head, she’s 14, too. She’s getting the attention she never got.” She’s Blanche DuBois. And, Kuriansky says, “there’s nothing more erotic that being adored, for women.” Lunch Lady Belinda from The Most Popular Girls in School; think Wendy Oldbag from the above example, but a bit younger, way cruder, and bisexual. There is, of course, the Professor's elderly grandmother in the Eddie Murphy remake of The Nutty Professor, who goes into anecdotes about her uhhh... past, over dinner. And then there's that one scene in the sequel...

Bananas: An old woman (who had been threatened by two thugs) reads Mellish's discarded copy of porno mag Orgasm with a huge smile. Dirty old(er) women do not reside exclusively in states with alligator problems; we have our fair share in the New York area. In August, Sandra Beth Geisel, a former Catholic-school teacher and the wife of a prominent banker in Albany, was sentenced to six months in jail for having sex with a 16-year-old, and she has admitted to sleeping with two of her 17-year-old pupils. (The presiding judge in the case infuriated the youngest boy’s parents when he told Geisel her actions were illegal but that her youngest sexual partner “was certainly not victimized by you in any other sense of the word.”) In October, Lina Sinha, an administrator and a former teacher at Manhattan Montessori on East 55th Street, was charged with second- and third-degree sodomy and third-degree rape for allegedly having sex with a former student—who is now a cop—for four years starting when he was 13 and she was 29 (she denies the charges). And last May, Christina Gallagher, a 25-year-old Spanish teacher from Jersey City, pleaded guilty to second-degree sexual assault of a 17-year-old male student.

In "Grannies Gone Wild", Granny Smith and her relatives (Aunt Applesauce and cousins Apple Rose and Goldie Delicious) let their manes down on a trip to Las Pegasus (in Granny's case, literally during one scene); Apple Sauce flirts with a young bellhop (who looks rather awkward about the whole thing), and the ladies flirt with a pair of handsome middle-aged stallions who happen to have a magic act at the hotel they're staying at. Or would it? What if the impossible happened and she started paying unmistakably romantic attention to you. What if “she told me that she had feeling for me. She told me that she was thinking about me a lot and had feeling for me [and] she didn’t know what to do with them,” as 24-year-old Debra Lafave told one of her 14-year-old pupils, according to his statement to the police. What if you had sex in the classroom? What if she fell in love with you? What if she wanted to marry you? If it stopped being a fantasy and started being your actual sex life, your actual life, would it be thrilling or upsetting? Or both? Would you be scarred for life or psyched for months? Shizuku in New Game! is a slightly younger than usual example; but she is still the oldest lady of the principle cast who openly lusts after her younger co-workers, often right in front of them.

When Diane Demartini-Scully first started going for walks with her daughter’s 15-year-old boyfriend on the North Fork of Long Island, it made him feel special. “She would just talk to me about life situations and shit,” he says now, a year and a half later. “It was pretty cool.” This is something DeMartini-Scully, a 45-year-old blonde who vaguely resembles Erica Jong, would have been good at. She was, until recently, a school psychologist at East Hampton Middle School. She knew how to draw a kid out. Grandma Mazur in the Stephanie Plum books. When a man exposes himself to Stephanie and Grandma Mazur, Grandma offers to try touching the rather excited man. He wilts. The old woman in Voltaire's Candide fits this pretty well, somewhat more so in the musical than the novel. Still Doing It reveals the wonderful truth that many older women are actually beginning intense romantic relationships after 65. Frances, 87, continues to enjoy a palpably sexual relationship with journalist David Steinberg, the love of her life she met at 80. Aware that many people see her as "nothing but an old woman," she is defiant in living life on her own terms. Even if we take as a given that it’s always wrong for a grown woman to have sex with her teenage students, or her son’s friend, or whatever other 15-year-old she gets her hands on, a question still remains: Why would she want to in the first place?From left: Lisa Lynette Clark, Age: 37, Age of Boy: 15; Mary Kay Letourneau, Age: 34, Age of Boy: 12. Photo: From left: Hall County Sheriff/Splash News/NewCom; Seattle PI/SIPA/NewsCom Esme also thinks that Edwina is "intelligent, successful, and pretty sexy" when she finds out that the latter once dated Joe, who's much younger than her since she's around Amelia's mother's age, to Amelia's disgust.

Dream Machine: Priscilla De Marco in 1.03. Change or Die . She hits on Ryan rather aggressively, though he’s still struggling with his shift to appealing mostly to the older generation.At the end of the episode "Bravo Dooby Doo", a crossover with Scooby-Doo, Johnny's elderly Aunt Jebidisa hits on Shaggy. Compare with Mrs. Robinson who is younger, prettier and still sexually active and doesn't have much problem seducing a younger guy. In Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, some of Kreia's dialogue is downright filthy by the standards of the GFFA, especially if you're playing a male.
