I think western women look too old

I’m an Asian American and find that western women look so old, 20 years older than they are. Women in their 20’s look like they are in their late 30’s. Women in their 30’s look ancient.

As a general rule, Asians think that Caucasians are older than they actually are, and Caucasians think that Asians are younger than they actually are.

The reason is purely mathematical. As human neonates develop, their initial craniofacial structure develops according to a cardioidal strain (nonlinear topological transformation). Although Asian and Caucasian features both do this, [i]they start from different initial positions.[/i]

During life, both Asians and Caucasians are exposed to thousands upon thousands of people sharing their features, and they develop very accurate estimates of age... but that experience is misled when they encounter features that have begun from a different basis.

If caucasians are shown, say, eight craniofacial outlines (just a simple line) from birth to eighty years old progressed using a cardioidal strain, they can very accurately sort them into order. The same is true of Asians sorting Asian outlines.

When given the other group's outlines, that accuracy falls away, with many mistakes and general uncertainty.
@newjaninev2 Thanks for a great explanation!

@newjaninev2 @newjaninev2 that’s over thinking things. Asian women look young and are humble. Western women look like hags and behave like them
@NestChicken You simply have no real answer to a learned reply! lol

What a silly answer!

@SomeMichGuy I said what is said
@NestChicken You clearly cannot understand @newjaninev2's reply, but many probably do not have a background from which to understand
"nonlinear topological transformation" along with the notion of differential initial conditions.

Please stop harassing all Western women.

@newjaninev2 Great explanation but sadly wasted on a dumb chicken 🐓
