[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]5ft tall and 37 years old and yes, my experience has been exactly that people often think smaller = younger. I've never had a problem with it though, I enjoy it. This is obviously cancelled out if you have heavily sun or smoke-aged skin, but if you look relatively around your age and are also smaller, that combination reads as younger to lots of people. [/quote] People really are that simple. Their brains link short and young, bald and old, fat and unhealthy - whether or not it's true. It kind of makes sense because you rarely see a young bald guy for example. It's just a common mental shortcut. Don't believe me? Take a Harvard implicit bias test. It's about race, but the premise is the same; some associations are ingrained in your brain. https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/iatdetails.html Just my opinion but it seems petite women look younger for many years and then boom, look totally little old lady.
