[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find both men and women, but especially women (probably since they do the majority of child care) look soooooo much older if they had kids young.  Not just compared to their childless peers- but when they get older and things have equalized, the ones who had kids young just look more haggard to my eye.  Generalizing, of course.[/quote]

Yikes lady. Feeling insecure and trying to justify your own choices much? This is objectively not true [/quote]

Shrug.  It's what I've seen, time and time again. But... to each their own.  [/quote]

You are clueless. As a woman who became a parent in my 30s, having kids older wrecks absolute HAVOC on an older person. There is no comparison. My niece recently had a baby at 23 (5 months ago) and we just got back from the beach where she was parading around in her bikini, but cheeks barely covered. Not a single inch of lose skin or flab. Young bodies bounce. Young bodies are biologically designed to bear children.

You will not find a single older mother who will tell you that having kids at an older age will perserve your looks. It's the absolute down fall into rapid middle age. [/quote]

Not talking about bodies, really, talking about overall youthfulness and specifically the appearance of the face. [/quote]

Hahahahaha what?? As an older FTM with a community of similar friends this is just...not true. Trust me. I really do not know where you're getting that but please do yourself a favor and don't harbor any such illusions [/quote]

Getting it from my experiences and observations. It's fine that you have different ones.  We'll just have to agree to disagree[/quote]

Haha I guess so. Seconding the earlier PP that said a little perspective will be very good for you [/quote]
