Men are not okay.
“I’m ready to fall in love,” she declared.
“All of a sudden, I am wearing garters.

As it turns out, plenty of men are ready to date April and her fellowGoldengals.
Several of the ladies reported having single guys slide into their DMs in an attempt to spark a romance.
While some of the messages are sweet, others… are not.
EW asked the women to share their strangest online encounters.
Ive been hit on by way more young men than [men] my age.”
April Kirkwood, 65:“The creepiest one was an old yucky man.
They wanted to go in together with me.”
I’m in shock!
They’re so young!
Nancy Hulkower, 60:“I’ve been contacted.
There’s been some younger men who were alotyounger, and that didn’t work for me.
And [there were] some who were a lot older.”
Nancy has also received some unsolicited analog messages, which she appreciated.
“I’ve had some handwritten letters.
People don’t do that anymore, and I thought, ‘Oh my gosh!’
That was very heartfelt.
And young girls will [write me] say, ‘I want you to meet my uncle.
Here’s a picture.'”
Joan Vassos, 60:“I get a lot of people interested in me.
It’s a little hard to vet everybody to be honest, because they’re strangers.
But I am way more open than I ever have been before.
And I actually went on a date that came from a DM!
“I had one date and it was pretty okay,” she said.
“I enjoyed it a lot.
I can’t wait to continue doing it…
I’m not doing the internet.
I’m a little afraid about that.”
Wise choice, ma’am.
