[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The picture of the older woman above looks a lot like my older sister in her late 60s.  But the time around 50 was still a little rough and she didn’t look great.  There’s a transition period before you can hit that “nice looking elderly woman” stride.  [/quote]

I think it's due to life stage impacting your looks. 50s are tough for most women -- relationship upheaval, kids in their teens or college or early adulthood (so dealing either with empty nesting or the surprise of your kids needing you more than ever just when you thought you were getting a break), career stagnation due to loss of momentum and age discrimination, aging parents or parents passing and other family issues. By their 60s many people have figured this stuff out and can relax, and being relaxed will naturally make you more attractive.

40s/50s are like a kind of adolescence. Makes sense that it would come with an adolescent-like looks transformation that is often quite awkward.[/quote]

Profound point and I agree.[/quote]
