of a certain age
青春不再

Sometimes the age is so unnoticable at the lovely conversation. The only thing you can see and hear is joy, laughter, mutual undestanding. It’s and awesome experience that you’ll be sharing after.

In general, women have more pressure to stay youthful than men because men prefer younger women to older women and women prefer older, wealthy, and powerful men to young men with nothing to offer.  In other words, women lose value over time and men can actually retain or increase their value through other means over time.  I believe most women are well aware of it so they take full advantage of their youth to lure the best men they can find.  Is it sad, no, just human nature.      

Am not afraid of telling my age. And yes, the pressure is always there to look youthful, who don’t want to look forever young?

I don’t know what to say, sometimes I do tell people I am 30 sometimes I don’t. I think it depends on who I am talking to.

I would not call “a lie” what a woman says about her age. She simply wants her man to hear what he desires.

Do only women age?People here are discussing mainly about women. The survey shows that one of the distinctive fears of men is getting old. Am I right, men? Or it relates only to a sertain type of men? I guess, no :)

In the whole world is a pressure to appear young. Fact!

I never shy about my age :)))))

getting older is something that one surely want to stop bt its certain like death.. time dont stop for anybody..so life turns into race for accompolishing life goals because everybody have limited time….....if one have to enjoy life to the fullest. he must enjoy every phase of life … girls dont be upset jst enjoy every moment of short life and accept the change..

I think it is sth natural that women do not like to tell others their age.Because as they grow older,their appearance changes.(the wrinkles on their forhead and…).And this matter annoys them a lot.So they prefer to use cosmetics and other products to apper younger and as a result they avoid telling others their real age.Some day me,my friends and all of the girls will face to this matter.But now I prefer to be older.Because I want to reach my goals and enjoy life.

Happy new year to all Iranian!

We all are getting older someday, so the age is not a matter. All we have to be worried about in the future is the following:

- What did you do in the past?

- What did you achieve?

- did you do things you like?

- were you happy?

I agree with you Ola33. Just do things you like and you’ll stay young and happy all the time.

I think Sally Field is still beautiful whatever her age is.

In my view to be young is not related to the age u are, it’s sth that u feel inside. It’s just a matter of attitude:)

I would accept that I might be wrong  but I think that  in our modern societies  young and beautiful people  have more possibilities  to land with a  job than  older ones , this is sad, because  we are not ” old”  at our 40th or fifties  .Trying   to stay young for ever is an illusion  , no matter how expensive are  the facial antiage creams . I have decided not to hide or lie about my age , I am what I am  ,69 years old , more mature , experienced, and I thank God for all the good  things that  over the years  I have been  enjoying: as… family, friends, foods ,trips  and good health . I feel bless  and i don´t care if I drop dead  now …lol

Nikki, Kate Blanchett and Tilda Swinton looks gorgeous in spite of their age, with just a few lines on the face. Coco Chanel was always irresistable. Jami Le Curtis is anti anti aging  saying , ” “We are in the chain of our ancestors, like it or not…These are truths to be celebrated and in other countries they are. The term older and wiser is actually in play everywhere but here.”

Of course there’s a huge pressure on women to look always young and unfortunately some women do the best they can to look young by having many plastic surgeries and so on and some just feel satisfied and okay with themselves and they don’t care about getting old, they let their faces and bodies without any surgeries and their hairs turn into the silver white as The actress Helen Mirren and Judi Dench. I just love this satisfying with yourself.

Fact is our society demonizes the natural aging process and celebrates youth and stereotypical beauty. But let me tell you, being of a certain age simply means I’ve lived life in a fascinating way. Why not accept the inevidable? I do! My mind does not feel anything near how old my body is.What’s the secret? It’s about loving yourself just as you are inside and out. Judi Dench shows us in a divalike way what aging realistically and gracefully means. Amen to aging naturally and with grace.

The older you are, the wiser you will be, just enjoy the flowing beaty of natural life. Age is not a problem and in my country it’s impolite to ask about age… don’t mind, it’ll be fine to be old hhhhhhhhhh…..age can be old but it’s a blessing to look young uh Ohhhh…

I have heard that some countries consider an age question as impolite thing to ask. In my country, lying about our age is not necessarily important though age plays a significant role here in many aspects of live such as work or relationship.
