hi Sonnet
My theory is that as men age the proportions of sex hormones change as they do in women. In men less testosterone and more oestrogen. So what you perceive as better is actually more feminine. The opposite occurs in women who gain more testosterone and loose oestrogen and so become masculinised. Female form is equated with beauty and male with power and so as humans age men become more beautiful and women more powerful.
Of course all such attributions as beauty are culturally determined.
Best wishes

So what you're saying is mean are like a fine wine get better with age? 😂😂

Make me look forward to my 40th now though I'll probably still ask who the old man in the mirror is everytime I look lol

It's because we think less about the things that cannot be solved

Not all of us!

Thats one of those things everyone says but I dont see it.

Or looking like men who don't age well 🤔

😏 I like to say... men dont grow older... we just become more handsome 😏

Life hands men and women different benefits. This is one that more or less got handed to the fellas. But your right.. It's not all that fair. But we die sooner. Actually that's a good thing too.

I think mature women look beautiful as well .. i don't agree they are melted wellies .. maybe its a case of being youthful in mind ..then it shows in the body and attitude as well ;)

Meh... My Wife of thirty years looks incredible, thin, petite and very pretty. Not everyone ages equally. Some retain vigour and figure some do not. When my Father was my age he was dead, my younger Brother did not make it even that age - meanwhile I wear no glasses and have no grey hair and I can touch my nose with my toes. Not everyone ages equally, not everyone is equally healthy...

There's no good answer to that question.

But I like waffles. 🤔

Im sure you look nice

It depends on genetics ,most men don't look better unless the work out heavily like 6 days a week and eat right.Thats what it takes me and it's brutal

Men look just as terrible. They just have the gift of a societal lens that makes everyone think they look okay. It's like beer goggles but for sober people. I choose to call them Clooney-Gere goggles. Where everyone hopes the man they end up with in their 60s looks like those two. The reality is... we all look decrepite.

I was an ugly duckling and now I will turn into handsome swan 😂

Are you a fan of beer bellies, missing teeth, b.o., idiotic leering, egoistic ranting, jokes that are totally unfunny....?

I'll take that melted wellie over the perky idiot any day. Although I might stare a bit at the perky idiot.
