According to Leonard Cohen, there are six stages

of a man’s allure to women as he ages:

Irresistible. Resistible. Transparent.* Invisible. Repulsive. Cute.

“A friend and I had a conversation about the stages a man goes through in relation to his allure to the opposite sex. It was not a scientific evaluation. Just something that arose over a cup of coffee. It went something like this. You start off irresistible. And then you become resistible. Then you become transparent. Not exactly invisible, but as if you’re seen through old plastic. And then you do actually become invisible. And then— and this is the most amazing transformation— you become repulsive. But that’s not the end of the story. After repulsive, you become cute. And that’s where I am.”

* I think he means ‘Translucent’
