View Full Version : Seems like people used to look older at the same age

I watched the last 2 episodes of The Bachelor this year. And I thought maybe I was getting old because everyone looked like kids. The girls also act more immature now, like they’re Instagram characters.

I don’t remember them looking so young. So I went on demand and watched the first Bachelor season. And girls that were the same age seemed much more mature back then in 2002. Some were 22 that I would have guessed to be 36. Maybe it’s just me? I just don’t understand why it seems this way.

The women back then seemed more sophisticated. They didn’t seem like they were in high school or college. The ones now do kinda seem like they’re super young. But the ages are the same. Their faces look younger now. I prefer the woman of the past.

Does anyone else see this? There’s also the possibility that not all the ages are correct. The new bachelorette Claire Crawley is 38. She’s supposedly the oldest bachelorette. But she would fit in with all the 25 year olds in the first season of The Bachelor.

It’s not that they all seemed old, but also more mature and sophisticated. They even sounded older.

Another example is Julia Roberts was 21 when she played in Pretty Women. A lot of 21 year old girls look like little kids. Miley Cyrus is like 27 now. She seems way younger than all the girls from the 02 Bachelor.

Modern medicine, exercise, technology, and people generally trying to buck the 'aging' process.

Obv the mom is in incredible shape but lip injections are so ugly man...it's so easy to tell. Plastic surgery ruins beauty, but I know it's just me cause ppl are obsessed with the overly fake IG models.

Natural beauty is king. The fake bitches are usually gold diggers anyway. Regular, good-looking women don't look like that in the face lmao most of these guys have barely been with women so I guess they wouldn't know
