      It's not truly about Paulina being any less beautiful, she most certainly is. Sad her husband (who wasn't really attractive, just famous and rich effected her self esteem as he did. Our internal dialog can be brutal to us all. It is our society of telling women that they need to fight aging, thru media, the magazines, have turned many young women to be freaked out about aging. Then there are the 'mean' girls, that need reminding, everything you say and do comes back to you.

    I am a 55 year old married man. I have only ever known Ms. Porizkova's image as a model. I have never read nor have I seen an interview with her. I appreciate her sharing her journey with us. I am pulling for her to not only be heard, but to be loved in ways that she can feel, as a friend, as a lover if she chooses, as an "auntie" to younger models and artists looking to be heard. Additionally, she has aged so gracefully. Anyone who overlooks her natural beauty is blind of spirit. It certainly ain't her.

    My wife changed so much when she went through menopause. I stood by her. The internal changes from her metabolism, allergies, sensitivity to different things, her mental well-being, even her own scent, were remarkable. It was quite the adjustment for her. We are very grateful that she had physicians who listened and helped her through the process.
    She has never been any sort of standout beauty, but she's always been a powerful, beautiful woman internally. Growing up with Asperger's Syndrome, it was difficult for her to express herself. Counseling and medication helped bring her out of her shell.
    Menopause put her through another kind of turmoil. Eight years later she still sees a counselor which helps her greatly.
    More needs to be done to understand and assist women going through the process of menopause.

    • @thoughts3897
      @thoughts3897 3 роки тому +6

      @@Lamp30 Yes, I know that. The whole premise of this program is that women "strip" to accept their true selves. If you follow that channel they interview MANY women from MANY walks of life. Some famous, some regular folks, all different body types. Sure many might disagree with the premise, but you can see if you watch different episodes that for many of these women --and for some viewers--it is the first time that they are truly accepting themselves, seeing themselves reflected in the media. My take-away: Accept yourself; don't buy into the messages of "beauty" as being one-note. Of course, you may have a different take-way, and certainly "aging gracefully" can mean many different things to many different people. And, yes, of course, you can accept yourself without posing in your bra and underwear --but big deal that she does (or that anyone does)? To each their own. Don't watch it. Simple as that.

Not a pretty picture or nit-picking every detail of yourself into perfection."
    I'm so sick of pretty. Pretty pictures and pretty lives... I want beauty. Raw and real and unedited.

      I am really struggling with my self esteem right now as well. I’m 50 years old and have never had a single treatment or even a professional facial. I haven’t had a period in almost 4 months now so obviously I’m entering the menopause. I’ve had such terrible mood swings going from anxious to rage and feel so ugly. I’m having terrible hot flashes all day and all night with my face turning bright red. I look at my body which gave birth to 3 wonderful kids and it looks squishy around the middle and the years of sun damage have left me with creepiness above my knees and my hands which have provided care to my patients, milked our 50 cows in below 30 degree weather, and dug in the dirt of my many flower and vegetable gardens and they look even older than my face. I have arthritis and the knobby and crookedness are very obvious to see now. My biggest insecurities are my nose which I broke terribly as a child and have had surgery to help correct the obvious deformity only to have it slowly fall apart again so I will have one more surgery to fix it up as much as they can and that will be the only and last thing that I will have fixed by a surgeon. My neck makes me feel the oldest and most insecure about because it is sagging and has many weird lines and wrinkles. I don’t even want to be in my family pictures anymore because I’m just shocked at how rapidly my appearance has changed with this peri menopause hormone drop. It’s unreal what the lack of estrogen does to the face, mind, and body. Paulina is still a beautiful woman and I would love to look as great as she does, especially her figure which is in fantastic shape no matter what age she is. I’m grateful to hear that I’m not the only woman feeling so lost right now and really appreciate her honesty.

      So true.
      I have been on my own for the past 10 years since divorcing at 49. I have had a lot of time to reflect on my life and have finally realised I do not need to define myself by being somebody's "other half". I am enough.
      I have also during lockdown decided to stop dyeing g my hair every 2-3 weeks and let my natural silver white hair come through and I love it. It is so healthy and beautiful and shines when the light catches it. I had a lightbulb moment and though "Who am I dyeing this for", deciding I was not going to spend the next 20 years of my life putting chemicals on my head to try and halt time. It has been so freeing and I actually feel empowered that I am now putting myself first for the first time in my life.
      We women put everyone else first, husband, kids, family etc. It is time we realised how beautiful we are and start to think about ourselves. I do not need a man to define me and if I am lucky enough to meet someone in the future then great, he will be a very special man, because I will not be getting involved with any old stranger just to have someone there. I am not afraid of being alone as I've been doing it for 10 years and have rediscovered myself and know my worth.

      Maybe....but it's too hard to judge a marriage from the outside. Maybe they were just mis-matched. His perception was that she left him, because she did leave before he got sick and had a boyfriend for a little while. Then she came back when he was sick. Very nice. And maybe she felt he left her emotionally. It may have just run it's course. Sometimes people get tired of each other and they just don't care anymore. Sorry, I frequently ponder why people break up.

      THE SENSITIVITY, BRAVERY, & VULNERABILITY SHE TRANSCENDS ADDS TO HER REMARKABLE IMAGE
      IN HER EARLIER YEARS, SHE WAS ONE OF THE MOST EXQUISITE BEAUTIES IN THE WORLD!
      THERE IS SO MUCH OF THAT SAME IMAGE, NO MATTER THE AGE!
      AGELESS, TIMELESS BEAUTY
      HER HUSBAND WAS OBVIOUSLY A COLOSSAL JERK, AND VERY UNCOMELY

Do you think men don't freak out when they're ageing? Or maybe you will tell me that just women are entitled to feel sensitive about something? Women use cosmetics because they feel better when they use make up, you're free to choose to use them or not, there's not anyone to blame for your choice. Her story is offensive towards women who work real jobs and take miserable wages. Her industry is famous for objectifying women, guess why, maybe because fashion is based entirely on look? Since when Walmart or a post office job have been objectifying women? I'm wondering why she remained in the industry if it was so hard and frustrating, but hey, like all of us, she didn't have choice but accept her terrible ( highly paid) job. You're lost 🤦

For me as a man it was quite different than for her as a starting "super Model." People would indeed stare and not know how to respond to so much physical beauty. Overwhelm was a common occurance.

She was wearing jeans and a white t-shirt, no makeup, and little round John Lennon granny glasses. She was really friendly, warm, and funny. Beautiful of course, but totally devoid of any sort of attitude or conceit. Very smart, kind of goofy too, which was both charming and disarming. I think she spent as much time chatting with me as she did because I didn’t immediately fawn all over her. I mentioned an article I had read of her describing that she loved to paint, so as an artist on my way to art school, I was really excited to ask her about her painting. We talked about art & school for about 15 minutes or so. She was utterly modest and it was just a really nice NYC moment.

It was very unnerving for years, and I even stop biking around (which I loved), and gained 60 pounds from not going out in public. It cost me some of my youth. Make being invisible work for you just like I had to make all the racist attention work for me. It’s all irrelevant at the end of the day. Life is a blessing that doesnt last forever.

      @@StyleLikeU1 Now I am 69. I retired January 2020. As a middle school teacher at the time, I dodged the Covid teaching fiasco, but still managed to catch it March 6, 2020, before we knew much about it. As a teacher, I had kept a fashionable, shiny, deep brown bob through the last decade, but on retirement and lockdown I decided I wanted to let it grow out in length and in color.
      It has been almost two years and I feel so beautiful, powerful and FIERCE. I don’t think I could have lived up to my incredible evolving looks before I retired, because the world of public school teaching has become such a damning, damaging and dangerous place. I needed a youthful appearance for symbolic body armor against the daily assaults on my health and self esteem.
      I have been blessed with great, smooth skin, among other things. I don’t wear makeup. I wouldn’t say I am still beautiful, I have to say I am even more beautiful in my current incarnation. I have lost the sight in one eye, and it seems to have turned my spiritual perspective completely around. I developed several autoimmune and health problems, but I have never felt so invincible in spirit. This age is a gift. My hair is a symbol. It is long and wild and streaked with shining silver white and seems to have gone wild with a will of its own. I look like the strong and interesting person that I am becoming. Strangers are compelled to tell me I look fabulous and they love my hair. Who would have guessed 69 would look and feel like this. 👍

      I disagree. Humans are made so guys spend time making a career, developing ways to take care of a family and females mate with the guys that are already there, not with their peers. That already happens in highschool, girls themselves go for older guys or even adults. That means a few years of age gap or even decades of age gaps. Women are at their peak, beautiful and fertile, with a a future ahead of them, in their 20s while guys peak at around their 30s and 40s. By that point they'll have stable income and knowledge/skills to provide for their family. As well as emotional maturity and experience of how the world works which is more important for what they give in a relationship. It's not a broken system. It was necessary back in the day, when survival wasn't guaranteed. Now the remains of that are left but it still is beneficial. Don't be one of those people who think that it's disgusting that the ideal image of a woman is basically one in their late teens. What should it be?

      So then make yourselves heard. I do it all the time and somehow a lot of men think its hot. I think guys deep down want nothing more than for women to stand up for themselves already. There are men out there who dream of women finally putting them in their place in a good way. Trust me you will be surprised. The ones that don't like it, deep down always felt you were too good for them. Not to bash men but look at where patriarchy has brought us. It has fucked up our world wake up ladies

    I was attending University in NYC in the early 80s and saw Paulina walking down 57th Street. I was coming out of Fiorucci and there she was even more beautiful than on the cover of magazines. I envied what I imagined was her wonderful life. I am 62 now and when I found her on Instagram my admiration was rekindled but with a new twist: I could hear her voice and relate to a lot of what she was going through. She helped me come to terms with my aging self. Thank you StyleLikeU and thank you Paulina ❤️

They made her hair style very old fashioned looking, and then by the end she’s showing her fit bod. Seems like she is still getting approval for her looks on the outside. I’m in the same age range, and am thin. I don’t feel the need to strip so people will accept me. I think she should be past that by now. We all want to be beautiful. And yes, not many people are not shallow, and judge someone by their wrinkles, weight, age. But the important people see past that.

      One thing I've learned over the years is that some of the most beautiful women you'll ever see are also the most insecure about everything from their looks and intelligence to their ability to NOT be abandoned. Paulina at 58 is finally getting it that she has value, is beautiful inside and out and has worth. It just takes some longer than others.
      She's not wrong though from a societal standpoint. Many women at a certain age are wrongfully invisible and seen as having no value when in fact they are at their most valuable the older they get.

    She is amazing. A beautiful aging woman is a terrifying journey. Identifying by one’s beauty and sex appeal does a number on one. We can’t hit the brakes on how our body ages despite how we try to take care of ourselves. Being disregarded by people when every entry into a room and walk down the sidewalk yielded multiple glances in our younger years is mind blowing. Then we go invisible and it’s irreversible. Something inside about our identity dies. Too much was made of the beauty and sexual prowess and the ego bonded with that. In aging a total reshaping of identity must take place, as painful and confusing as it is. Paulina is definitely on the right track! Her courage and honesty is very healing!!! Namaste Paulina!!❤❤

      @@ellie.l6585 I agree. But I think a large percentage of our society is intimidated by any signs of aging because that reflects the reality of their own mortality, which scares the crap out of them. Still it’s astonishing how many people feel the need to throw shade on aging, when you consider that that’s the ultimate example of throwing stones in glass houses! It’s a sad reflection of these people’s relationship with themselves, and their reality as a whole. Thinking there’s some other path available to them is just magical thinking.
      Paulina could’ve traveled the very popular path of chasing the past but where’s the growth in that? Though I don’t relish every aspect of aging myself, I find it even sadder watching people in their 50’s, 60’s and 70’s desperately chasing a youthful appearance, instead of mining for the value of who they are becoming. It’s both an exhausting and ridiculously expensive avoidance of reality. I’m not judging anyone for getting “work done” but I also can’t help but notice that it seems to be a fully fear-based venture.
      50+ is an opportunity to explore who else we are, who we have become, and who we are becoming outside the context of youthful beauty. And if we spend that time chasing who we once were, we are moving backwards.
      Her husband was one of the most unattractive celebrities the world has ever seen, but still she loved him for who she thought he was. Sadly, he was just another insecure rockstar that knew he was unattractive and wanted to flip the bird to the world, by claiming the most beautiful woman in the world, as his own. He probably relished her beauty because he thought it validated him in some way, and when she was no longer the ultimate standard of youthful beauty, all his insecurities came flooding back and he went on to chase his next fix of youthful validation. He’s a sad reflection of our society but she’s a glowing example of an evolved soul.😊

      I find a beauty starting in the the thirties that grows to the sixties and then it gets more complicated for me to see, which is much like my appreciation has grown as I age. The visual beauty of middle aged women has variety and fluxes as one remembers those moments of beauty and joy etched into the wrinkles. The wrinkles created from a woman's smile that only happens when she remembers a love she often has, is more sophisticated and has more depth than the shiny youthful skin. It takes time and relationship to see.
