Not old but not young either in general. Middle aged. However, it's too young to die for example.
@SW-User Far too young to die

@startingover23 cwazy b*tches 🤷‍♂️

It depends. For example, I would say 50 is pretty old for playing junior varsity volleyball.

Sadly...seems so. It's the age when aging already shows in most people.

In 2020 the average life expectancy for a male was 77.28 years. If you assume the last quarter would be old age, then that would be at nearly 59.5 years. So using that as a scale, 50 would not be old. At 65, I am old!
val70 · 56-60
Yes, it is. The average age before the industrial revolution was 37. That's atleast a quarter of a century less than someone who's already 50 today

Since I am 56, it is an age I thought was old when I was younger and since my doctor said I would have a good life until I was 30, I am glad to be past my expiration date.

Age is a myth. When young you need to be old enough.. and when older you are young enough with experience ..
Amylynne · 31-35, F
To old for what?
depends, on why you are asking, is 50 to old to be a teacher?
play basket ball ?
or are you being hit on by that guy
Funlov · M
@Amylynne all you have to do is look at the age that is asking and go really 🤔
Amylynne · 31-35, F
@Funlov dont be too sure.. there is alot of "age gap" out there,
some reject that
others embrase that
and maybe sometime this is the kind of thing where she i looking for approval or not
Funlov · M
@Amylynne she doesn’t need approval she’s her own person her own decisions age is nothing I see your age I’m older than you do I think I know more than you know not at all it’s just a number
Rhode57 · 61-69, M
In my case yes . Suffered heart failure at 50 was given zero life expectancy and approx 8/9 years on still here but feeling old and tired and the simplest of jobs are hard work so in my case yes . I suppose it all depends how you feel etc .
Rhode57 · 61-69, M
@Funlov Haha NO . It was thanks to genetics on my dads side of the family .
Funlov · M
@Rhode57 sorry
Rhode57 · 61-69, M
@Funlov No problem its life there are others worse off than me just got to make the most of each day were all gonna die some time .
DunningKruger · 61-69, M
I suppose it depends on your perspective, says the 60-year-old.
cherokeepatti · 70-79, F
40 is the old age of youth and 50 is the youth of old age.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
I was that age once I think. 🤔
ChipmunkErnie · 70-79, M
Not to me, kid.
@ChipmunkErnie Nor to me. My "baby" sister will be 50 next year.
SW-User
@bijouxbroussard And my baby sister will start on Medicare next year!
Funlov · M

No. I still have the body of a 20 year old and the same mindset. Age is just the number of years you’ve been on this earth 🤙🏻
Lackwittyname · 51-55, M
Well I would have thought so 20-30 years ago, but I do not feel that way now
Pretzel · 70-79, M
it's younger than me but what I remember of it - I didn't have the pep I did in my 20s and 30s

@acpguy see you at your age you’re so rocking it 😊
Nevaeh0081 · 41-45, F
Not to a 100 year old.

Youth is fleeting.

Marinate in it.
SarithBorn · 22-25, M
It is old but it just means they are more experienced than most. 😇
LunarOrbit · 61-69, M
Yeah. Thats old.

Unless you’re almost sixty…then 50 is young
Rambler · 61-69, M
depends on where you are on the scale ;)
calicuz · 56-60, M
For me, yes.
For others, no.
scooogy · 31-35, M
Yeah, 50 years is old, old :P
Dino11 · M

Not now but in 2010 it was
Strictmichael75 · 61-69, M

50 years old what?
Man, woman, regime, building, turtle, oak tree, relationship....?
In the USA it's old and retirement is even older than your life expectancy, now.
Werkkk. You love jobs jobs jobs.
DestroyerOfIdeologies · 26-30, M
what context?
Rainandforest · 26-30, F
Definitely too young to be dying. Probably too old to be a first time parent, but even that depends on the person.
Justenjoyit · 61-69, M
For some people who are 50 they are old for their age and for others they are still young
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
Next to you a 50 year old could be your mom or dad
