    Ur actually on the right track. I think it was Hank Green that I saw explain this well. But it's basically as people age they tend to continue with a specific style of appearance so over time the next generation will associate that style with old people and if a younger generation wears that same style they will look older. There is also a bit to be said about better practices such as better skin care less time in the sun not smoking better nutrition but it's mostly what we think old looks like

      I remember when I was in my mid thirties I went to a couple of 50th wedding anniversaries. The women wore matronly dresses with gray hair and a pocketbook on their wrist. No makeup at all.
      I am 67 and have seen gals I graduated with look very pretty with current hair cuts. They are very particular of their choice of make up. I have a friend.age 70, who hikes long distances and rides in a biking club in different places. Very many keep their hair colored. As make up artists tell us, we would look ten years younger with colored hair. I get compliments on my hair with reddish tones over brown. There's not reason to change what I love.

And the hair and make up does make a difference. Look at yearbook pictures from back then. The teenagers had similar hairstyles and they looked much older than teenagers today. Aging naturally wasn't a crime back then.

    This has been discussed a lot. The answer is twofold. 1.) People back then smoked and didn't use sunscreen. 2.) People back then wore clothing styles that WE see as "old" so we perceive them as older because they wore the same styles well into their golden years.

      @p.s.shnabel3409 3 місяці тому +39

      If you look at touched up pics of the time, they look just as young as we do with filters.
      Because in real life, with real harsh lighting and no hiding behind technology, we don't really look that much younger.
      Our jowls sag, our skin wrinkles and our hairline is receding. Maybe some of us have some botox or other work done, a very few lucky ones have good genes, but that's about it.
      Too much make-up, too much gunk in our hair, too much unhealthy food, not enough fresh air. Many for decades on hormones (first birth control then menopause), an estimated 1/4 on medication for mental health, and even more desperately unhappy and depressed.
      I do agree with your second point, though. And in another couple of decades, we will look just as aged to the next generation.

      But I chain smoked for 20 years AND had a drinking problem. I'm 48 and don't have a line on my face. But I don't have kids and I've worn sunblock every day since I was 17. That HAS to be it.

    Gen X had decades of wonderful music growing up, thus we were happier and that I believed made the aging process a lot slower for us. I'm hitting 50 but I'd often get mistaken for early 30s. Good genes, better food intake, better skincare range, no smoking and alcohol comes into play too but basically we had great music to fall back on..basically our souls were enriched. That was our secret fountain of youth..❤

      Alot of us didn't get better jobs until our (they sent most of the jobs overseas when we were in college) 30s also and had more controlling parents trying to keep us as kids.So we have more of a youthful personality b/c we never felt like we were our own person. Some of us did a lot of rebellion against the controlling parents as adults. So they kept us kids somewhat and kiddie like. So we're a combination of very adult like, very wild like and very nieve and goofy like.

      I’m 59, and you’re right, we had awesome, happy music! We are the Just Say No, Stranger Danger, rule-followers. It seems like many of the boomers are angry, combative, and attention-seeking. Not all; but many. My mother and ex husband are boomers, but they are exceptions, and I know there are plenty more exceptions, but that kind of attitude is stressful and causes all sorts of aging and health issues.
