English term or phrase: They’ll be throwing themselves at you
Testo teatrale americano (per la messa in scena e non per la pubblicazione). Dialogo tra due ospiti di una casa di riposo.

You need to change your attitude. And your appearance. And that’s where I come in. After I’m done with you, when you walk down the street, women over sixty won’t be able to look away. They’ll be throwing themselves at you. Slowly. Cautiously. But throwing nonetheless.

La mia proposta:

Dopo che avrò finito con te, quando camminerai per strada, le donne sopra i sessanta non riusciranno a distogliere lo sguardo. Ti si butteranno addosso. Lentamente, con cautela, ma comunque si butteranno.

Cerco soluzioni migliori. Grazie.
