I never said a older woman can't look good for her age, but none of those women look the same as they did when they were younger. You take away all the makeup, photoshop, botox, and plastic surgery and you will see women who have aged and have wrinkles and stress marks and gray hairs.
Have to agree with Bricks here. Celebs aren't good to go on because no telling the surgery, botox, and other crap they have had done. As a celeb, you can afford to buy a new body.
Like Sean Bean. he's aged. But at one point, his teeth were horrible. He apparently paid to get them fixed, and they looked better now than they did in the 90s.

Yeah... I know. The problem is, you can't find articles on "Real people" who don't age much. No one cares. I am not saying I am one of them, but I've known people who really don't seem to age much at all over a period of time.
The women above are all in their 70s... if I saw them on the street, I would think maybe late 40s or early 50s, but never 70s. Like this woman who is 75-years-old:

Sure it helps, but I don't think the women I mentioned look great just because they're celebrities because there are a lot of rich and famous people out there who are aging badly, but I won't name names.
Found another one... this woman is 54 and claims to have had no surgery. She says it's diet, exercise, taking care of herself and being lucky with good genes. No point to this really... other than I wonder if a lot of people really know when they see someone how old that person really is.

Jen is too skinny now, and I think she had fat sucked out of her face, because at one point, her face and body were much fuller, and curvy-definitely sexier as a younger woman.
Some celebs look bad because they go natural, and age normal, and not every ages pretty. And other look bad due to getting bad surgery.
It's like trying to compare yourself to a Porn star, or playboy model. Most of those women have implants. Breasts don't look perfectly round like that without work. Ass surgery.
So, that's why celebs aren't reliable. Not to say non-celebs don't get surgery. But they definitely are higher candidates. Lighting, air-brushing, cameras, make-up, and surgery.
Mila Kunis for example. Everyone talks about how hot and sexy she is. But when they see her with no make-up, outside of acting and public appearances, she's said to look like a boy. Even though I would love to look like her. But she does look different with make-up off.

She looks aged. But her face is mature. So, yeah, if no surgery, she looks good at 50, even though you can see age on her, it's not bad.
No pix, but my grandfather was a body-builder in his younger years. He has aged, gray hair, and gained weight. But he still doesn't look 70+. He looks 50. Definitely not how you'd expect a almost 80 man to look.
a) Celebrities look terrible. That's why people love to look at pictures of "celebs without makeup." It's like the Hindenberg. Obviously, there are exceptions, but it's amazing what even just makeup does for some of them.
b) All those articles about people who look the same after 20 years were written because it's so unusual, not because it's so normal.
When I was 23 I was dumped by a 22-yr old girl in favor of a 37 year old guy. I was pretty upset about that.
There are a lot of factors that go into attractiveness. There was a woman in one of my classes one time that I was suprised I was so attracted to. She must have been about 15 years older than me - I was 30 at the time, she was 44-47 I think. She never revealed her exact age. I think she thought I was a bit older than I was, because we were talking one time and something came up about my high school days and I revealed what years I was in high school, and she seemed to get really embarrassed. We would still talk after that, but I think she was self-conscious about her age, so nothing came of it.
She was good looking, but I'm sure she looked better in her 20s. However, it was the total package that attracted me - she was really intelligent & classy and she dressed really well - great sense of style. Not a lot of the younger women I deal with have that package.
Sometimes younger women aren't all they're cracked up to be. I know a doctor who got divorced around age 49-50. Until he was 54, he went through a string of WAY YOUNGER women - I'm talking 25+ yr age gaps - women in their early to mid 20s, no older than 30. He worked out A LOT - & did athlete-level sports. He is also obsessive about what he eats - only very healthy stuff. If not for his grey hair - you would think he was in his 30s. Plus, he was a doctor. Apparently having M.D. after your name is the ultimate panty dropper, because it seemed like he could get any woman he wanted. But he always complained about how immature they were, which made me wonder why he dated them at all.
When he was 53 dating a woman who was 24 and smoking hot, and she was totally into him. He finally got tired of her and dumped her for a woman who I think was 35-38 and they're still together. I was friends with the 24-yr old, and she had her issues, I could see why he would dump her, but she was PISSED, really offended! She could not believe that he dumped her for someone older.
Anybody who believes that they look the same in the 40' as they did in their 20's is delusional and I'm not going to waste time arguing with them.
I don't look the same as I did at 20, but I don't look worse just because I'm older, and that's the whole point. When you meet a woman, you either like her for how she is now, or you don't. But you shouldn't care about how that woman used to look at 20 because that's not who you'd be dating, so it's irrelevant.
No 30-year-olds ever hit on me or my gf's in college. How would a 30-year-old even come in contact with a college student, if the students are on campus most of the time? I've never heard of that.
Really? You guys were only in a bubble where everyone around you was college age? I went to a college in an urban area. I interacted with people of all ages often. And many grad students were older too. I'd run into these "old" people at the bar, on the street, on the train, all over the place.
My last 2 years of college I lived in a dorm that had a really wide range of ages, from about 20 to 50 (give or take). Obviously most people were in the 20-24 age range, as it included grad students. But quite a few people were older.
My friends and I ended up befriending a 30-year old european guy. Although he liked to flirt with younger ladies, he only dated people closer to his own age. But he like to invite us "kids" to his wine and cheese parties. And of course we liked to go because they were way more interesting than the horrible keg and bucket parties people our own age had. These parties actually had food! *
*My friends roommate did date one of the old guys. She started dating him when she was 18 or 19, they dated for 3 years and this guy was at least 42. And not one of those "hot older guys." He was balding, had a pot belly, they whole nine yards. And always had sexist stuff to say. I was so happy when they broke up! We were like "eeeeewwwww gross!!!!!"
