Yeah, that's one of the pics I was referring to in my post above about seeing her in a bikini. She looks spectacular. I would never have thought a 65 year old woman could pull off a bikini and look good in it but she sure does.

I think a big part of why her body looks so great at her age is that she's never had children. I know she most likely also exercises and eats healthy. But still, having children can greatly change a woman's body.
I know some women with children work out hard and still look great. But most that I know with kids say that their body never went back to quite the way it was before children, even those who still are in their 20s, even if they exercise hard.
I mean, she's probably never had stretch marks, and most likely she never had great fluctuations in weight either.

Everything I've read, she seems to say she's very happy to not have kids and never had the maternal instinct. Maybe some women are not meant to be moms.

Of course. There is no good reason to have kids. I know many childless women who have great lives. Just for me, it has been very fulfilling.

The best part of my life has been my children and my greatest joy has come from them. And yes, some women don't have the 'mothering' instinct and I salute those wise enough not to have kids when they don't. Raising children is the hardest job in the world and (to do it well and raise productive/healthy members of society) takes most of your attention and time when they are growing up. Being a mom is not for the feint of heart but it sure has some HUGE rewards.

I never had the human mothering instinct, but I've always had it with animals, and I've raised many (dogs, horses, and birds) to be well-behaved members of society. Lately I've been spending a lot of time watching this corgi puppy webcam http://www.ustream.tv/channel/marpranpwcCorgi puppies just make me go weak in the knees!
