[quote=Anonymous][quote]Women in their 40's in this area often are skinnier and better looking than even teens. It is sad, but the truth is that many are obsessed with their weight and make sure to be skinny and yet teen girls and many women in their 20s are heavier. Weight, unfortunately, is the first perception of good or bad looks in women. I am in my mid 40s and when I pick up my DD from high school, or go to sporting events, I am among many skinny moms, and teens are either heavy or approaching heavy. So, in the shallow culture that we have, yes, skinny 40 year old is considered better looking than fat 18 year old.[/quote]

1+.  It is shocking to see high school classes out and about, e.g. on field trips or on tourist/out-of-state tours.  (I stop at Union Station to get to work so see a lot of these groups.)  The teens are at least 2-3 full sizes larger than I remember our classes (which were only maybe 10-15% overweight kids, and zero obese ones).

And since we are on the shallow topic of appearance, my friends who have maintained the [i]same weight [/i]look pretty darn similar now in their late 30s-early 40s as they looked in their mid twenties when I first met them.  Perhaps there is more upkeep (cover grays, watch what they eat, skin care), but I think if you compared photos of now and 15 years ago (and I have pics from all eras), you would often be hard pressed to choose which was which.[/quote]
