I am concerned about ageism and the loss of beauty - the perception that as you grow older, you 'lose your looks,' which I think is diabolical.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Any fear of aging, I think, is simply vanity.
Everybody is so anti-aging, but I don't want to look younger than I am. Our face is a map of our life; the more that's there, the better.
Aging in Hollywood sucks. There's always so much pressure to look way younger than you are, and everyone's watching! I'd like to embrace getting older, because it's kind of inevitable. The different, wiser me, to be at peace with how I look and I'm supposed to look - it's a work in progress.
The idea of getting old is horrific, but I don't want to make it worse by becoming a grotesque caricature. A lot of people have made that mistake of trying so hard to hang on to their looks that they make themselves look really scary.
Ageing is one of those battles you're not going to win. I'll try to look as good as I can as long as I can. I don't think I'll do cosmetic surgery because I'm a wimp.
Ageing is inevitable, and the idea that we can be eternally youthful is the pitfall of our society.
The older you get, the more you realize that the way you look is a reflection of how you treat yourself.
I look forward to being older, when what you look like becomes less and less an issue and what you are is the point.
This idea that being youthful is the only thing that's beautiful or attractive simply isn't true.
You can only perceive real beauty in a person as they get older.
