        A spinster, or old maid, is an older, childless woman who has never been married. A spinster is not simply a single woman, but a woman who has not formed a human pair bond by the time she is approaching or has reached menopause and the end of her reproductive lifespan

            A female who values her female relationships as much as her male ones, doesn't alter who she is, what she believes in, or what she wants to make a boy's life easier, and not worrying that boys will find her unattractive if she speaks what's is on her mind

            A spinster can have sexual relationships as long as they still follow the spinster rules

              Spinster is an attractive lady who can spin dreams of her own, have the freedom to make them true, and when this happens men often spin around her for marriage proposals. Now it depends entirely on her to accept or reject proposals. Married ladies often envy spinsters.

                  An elderly or aging female who due to a combination of major personality flaws, undesirable personal habits, and unattractive physical appearance has never married. It is not uncommon for a spinster to have had many short term romantic relationships and to have spread her legs for many men. Females begin to enter spinster territory at the age of 35 or the first appearance of gray hair and or crow's feet.
