too much money and opportunity - that means easy access to the party lifestyle and too much pressure to look good. Don't forget that plastic surgery can often do much more harm than good, for every celeb who has used it successfully there's probably one who's had something botched.
There are plenty of regular women who look great and it'd be nice to see them instead, but it's not really convenient or appropriate to post random people on here. I like to look at skincareaddiction posts for examples though.

>>265503in my unscientific opinion, babyfaced men are less likely to age well, not more. a lot of the examples in this thread had boyish handsomeness mostly based on facial features, but because their bone structure was just average, their facial features just get lost when they get old and fat. the men who age well tend to be the ones that have strong, masculine bone structure that remains apparent even when they get wrinkly and bloated. if your attractiveness hinges on looking youthful it has a definite expiration date, but if it's more about features that you get to keep as you age, like bone structure, proportion, and symmetry, you have a better chance of aging well.

>>264977The phrase that men age like wine isn't regarding their physical appearances, at least not exclusively. It regards their status socially. As men age, so the saying generalizes, the fruits of their labors become more apparent and they are more likely to have a wider array of resources, both financial and social, at their disposal from their experience. Can the same be said for women? Yes, women become more valuable in both regards as they get older, too, if they are professionals and focus on those gains.
But the primary aspect by which women are judged initially is their appearance. Most people age like shit, but since outward appearance is the first impression society gets from women, the ravages of aging impact their social standing more than that of men who tend to be judged by a completely different metric. Men age like wine specifically because people stop caring about how men look just around the time their looks begin to decline.

As much as I love the thread though, I hate how most anons post middle-aged women who just look younger. In my opinion, aging beautifully is letting the signs of age show but embracing them. Don't get me wrong but I was kind of hoping to see foxy grey-haired ladies who still have it. Monique Parent from youtube is one of my favourites, she's definitely had some work done but doesn't try to hide her age. Her personality is so refreshing as well!

It's not like I have sky high standards for looks though, having a healthy body fat % and a full head of hair is enough for me. Hardly 2/10 pointy elbows level
I put effort into my appearance and body, so I would expect the same from my partner. I wouldn't be with someone that didn't look after their body. Which is why the hairline thing bothers me, because it's out of their control, but it genuinely matters a lot to me in terms of sexual attraction. Maybe that'll change as I grow older though.

This "women age worse" meme is entirely cultural. Women actually age much, much better than men and are in general more neotenic (childlike) in their features. You may have noticed how a lot of trans women end up looking older after switching from male to female attire. A 20 year old man instantly makes a 45 year old woman. This is because male features
do look older and it stands out immediately. We just don't cut women as much slack.

No. 270931
This thread is bad in so many ways. You all completely missed the point of the saying. The thing is that men only want young looking women, so old women can only look attractive if they look young. Women on the other hand have other standards of beauty, mainly the idea that they want successful men, which doesn't depend much on looks and biology in general. I find the woman preference theory dumb and sexist, I don't know, maybe it was true for older generations of women, but that's definitely not my standard and of my friends my age of what attractive men are. But men wanting young women is very much true, read this
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoteny.
1- aging well for women: looking like you didn't age
2- aging well for men: acquiring mature traits that actually make you more attractive, something that young men can't have
Like I said, it's not for me, I don't like old men. The theory goes that men prefer young women because more pregnancies and more successful pregnancies, which means more reproduction success. Woman's capacity of carrying out quality pregnancies decreases fast with age, but modern medicine mostly fixed that. Another theory says that neotenic women might
trigger men's paternal instinct of protection and nurture, pretty dumb IMO.
Notice how most cases of women who mature well in this thread is precisely about women who still have good skin &hair and tight body at old age. Also, posting men who had drug problems or bad life experiences overall, like this:
>>264979>>264986>>264987>>264989just goes to show that you're dumb.

>>270931What the fuck are you talking about? Why are you pretending this is an established scientific theory and not just some brainlet incel mantra to defend their own hebephilic tendencies and cope with their unfortunate genetics? We've all seen the images they create, use and disseminate. You think they care if an unattractive older woman has a history of drug abuse (which, let's face it, all celebrities have)?
I can't with these male-aligned posters. Go back to /r9k/.
No. 270938
>>270931Also forgot to talk about the other side of the coin: men of any age will prefer young women, while women of any age usually prefer men their age or a bit older.
>>270933I didn't say that the theory is true. Both theories that young women means higher reproductive success and that young women
trigger male paternal instinct sound dumb to me, or at least incomplete. But trying to deny the common knowledge that men prefer young women is just dumb. It is simply common knowledge, and it is backed up by many studies, now the theories behind it are something else, none of them convinced me.
As for the drug thing, it is only a side commentary. And I doubt that most hollywood women are drug addicts, like a good deal of the men are or were at some point in their careers. Brad Pitt is a legit case of a man who aged like milk due to bad genetics, but Axl Rose or Fraser are not (Fraser probably partially).
No. 270939
>>270938Nobody denies that men want young women. We're laughing at scrots who think they physically age better.
Old men with status have utility, but they aren't attractive. Having resources and thus being able to buy someone's willingness to tolerate your ugliness is not a "beauty standard", it's pragmaticism.
No. 270946
>>270939I don't even buy into the resources thing personally. What I'm saying is that the wine/milk aging thing is not about who ages less, but about who can still look attractive while aging. Like I said, men of any age will want young women, and if you're an old woman trying to look attractive, you're going to have to look like you're in your 20s. Women on the other hand tend to prefer men of their age or a bit older. The resource thing to me is complete bullshit, might have been true in the past, when women didn't have their independence, but to me at least I wouldn't want an old guy just because he's rich (probably because I have my own money), I never liked men much older than me, and as I said, at least in my circle of friends (my age) this seems to be the standard.
Most of the theories explaining both male and female preferences to me are bullshit, but trying to deny that these ARE the preferences is dumb, you're going against common sense and knowledge. Women "don't age well" because woemn can't look like they're in their 20s forever, men can't do it either, but women don't mind that, and would in fact prefer men their own age range. This is what I'm saying.
No. 270948
>>270938Women prefer older men (as potential life partners, not for purely sexual pursuits) because they will die sooner, leaving us more time to enjoy our lives as merry widows, in some cases with inheritance. It's a strategy.
If you male want a woman who loves you for you and actually enjoys spending time with you, you should go for someone of the same age or older.
No. 270953
>>270948Like I said, all theories trying to explain it to me are dumb. And women only prefer slightly older men, you all seem to be bothered too much about female preference. The thing is that men's preference seem to be absolute: they want women in their early 20s and that's it, but with women things seem to change, it changes with age and it also seems to change with social organization, and this is why I said that the female preference thing to me makes no sense. It might have been true in the past, but to me at least it's not true now. Women of older generations, or parts of the world where they still can't have their own money, will probably weight in male success, but I just don't, I have my own money, and as long as the guy isn't a dead beat, he's game to me. I woudn't mind dating a guy somewhat younger than me… so long as he isn't a dead beat.

Damn, why did you all get worked up because I started talking about the preference in age difference thing? That wasn't my intention. I tend to see both men and women who go after much younger partner as disgusting, doesn't matter if it's Madonna or some pedo KV 40 YO neckbeard. I'm not trying to legitimize men who go after women 20 years younger than them, my whole point was to criticize the bad interpretation of the wine/milk meme in this thread so that you all can realize that the healthy way of preferring things, in an ideal world where men and women aren't drastically unequal in financial independence, is that both men and women prefer partners of their own age range. I was just criticizing these posts that show 50 or 60 YO Hollywood women with good skin, hair and curves as good examples of women who aged well, because that isn't aging well, that is just not aging, this is basically about trying to hide your age (and I personally don't intend to do that), and if you think that this is aging well then you're the one absorbing male standards. I don't buy into absolute biological preferences like "all men prefer young women because they are biologically hard wired for such", I recognize that at least in our society today this is what happens (and apparently many women seem to have this beauty standard too, at least for other women), but I don't think it will always be like this no matter what kind of society we live in.
