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!

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 · 26-30, 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
val70 · 51-55
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
dsrice · 56-60, M
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 ..
Rhode57 · 56-60, 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 · 56-60, M
@Funlov Haha NO . It was thanks to genetics on my dads side of the family .
Funlov · M
@Rhode57 sorry
Rhode57 · 56-60, 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 .
Funlov · M
Not at all just old to someone younger that don’t no any better 🤔
DunningKruger · 61-69, M
I suppose it depends on your perspective, says the 60-year-old.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, 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!

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 🤙🏻
In the USA it's old and retirement is even older than your life expectancy, now.
Werkkk. You love jobs jobs jobs.

@acpguy see you at your age you’re so rocking it 😊
Pretzel · 61-69, 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
Lackwittyname · 51-55, M
Well I would have thought so 20-30 years ago, but I do not feel that way now
LunarOrbit · 56-60, M
Yeah. Thats old.

Unless you’re almost sixty…then 50 is young
SarithBorn · 18-21, M
It is old but it just means they are more experienced than most. 😇
Nevaeh0081 · 36-40, F
Not to a 100 year old.

Youth is fleeting.

Marinate in it.
scooogy · 31-35, MVIP
Yeah, 50 years is old, old :P
Rambler · M
depends on where you are on the scale ;)
calicuz · 51-55, M
For me, yes.
For others, no.
Strictmichael75 · 61-69, M
It depends
For a 15 yo yes
jackson55 · M

50 years old what?
Man, woman, regime, building, turtle, oak tree, relationship....?
DestroyerOfIdeologies · 22-25, M
what context?
Rainandforest · 22-25, F
Definitely too young to be dying. Probably too old to be a first time parent, but even that depends on the person.
Justenjoyit · 56-60, M
For some people who are 50 they are old for their age and for others they are still young
