The Perfect Age

This is a theory that I came up with a long time ago and had forgotten about it till today. If I have ever had to guess a girl's age I have always said 27. It's the perfect age to guess. If the girl is younger than 27 she will be flattered that she looks mature, more like an older woman. If, on the other hand, the woman is older than 27 she will be delighted that she looks younger. Wait a minute. No wonder I had forgotten about it. Other than Massiel, most of the women in my life over the past 15 years have all been so old that this wouldn't work. Somehow the idea of using 37, 47 or more doesn't seem to be so clever. But if the person is in the 20-35 years old range, go with 27.
