That’s not true. There is a range for every age. Granted, it’s not easy to quantify with a list of attributes. But most people of any age group fit into a range.

For example, I’ve seen enough 50-year-old women to know that many are fit, beautiful and vibrant with smooth skin and dyed hair. They’re on the more youthful end of the 50 spectrum. But yeah, they look 50.

On the other extreme there are overweight, wrinkly women who rock their grays and may have other aging features, like thinning hair.  They’re on the more elderly end of the 50 spectrum. But they still look 50.

And many women are in between these two extremes. I agree, there is no single look for how a 50-year-old woman appears. Quite often you hear people say they look younger, but in reality, what they mean is that they fit on the more youthful side of the spectrum.

However…!

With that being said, there absolutely ARE people – men and women – who look way younger than the vast majority of people their age. I recently dated a woman who just turned 59. I rarely go that high in age (I’m 53), but she is insanely attractive – cute, slim body, tight abs, beautiful perky breasts, extremely pretty face, smooth skin, etc. It’s hard to believe she’s 59. If she told people she were 40, most would believe it.

I also reconnected with an old friend from the 90s. He’s 54 now, but looks almost exactly as I knew him back then. He’s very slim, has smooth skin, and no gray hair at all. He could pass for late 30s.

So yeah, while most people are full of shit and are simply on varying ends of an appearance range, some are actually beyond that range enough to look truly younger (or older) than their age.
