White people really do age like complete shit

Date: February 17th, 2018 4:01 PM Author: Odious liquid oxygen I am in my 30s and get compliments about my weight and youthful skin and how young I look, but probably only because I am compared to American whites...Just LJL @ not being a wrinkly, feral boar and they are "OMG AMAZED" at how "THIN" and "YOUNG" you look in your 30s
It's like the default in America for a 30 somethig year old is some wrinkly, fat old hag. I'm sure if I moved to another country, nobody would say anything. LJL |

Date: February 17th, 2018 4:05 PM Author: Odious liquid oxygen They are just comparing me with whites my age in the US, not controlling for anything
I am mixed race, not a single wrinkle on my face, BMI 18. I probably look mid 20s tbh, but have been carded recently. When I was 30, people thought I was in college. If I lived in a normal, non brainwashed country, I'd probably just be considered average youthwise for my age..it's because the standards in the US are so fucked up that if you're not a fat, wrinkly cow you look "so much yougner than your age" |

Date: February 17th, 2018 4:06 PM Author: Kink-friendly School Cafeteria I mean, that doesn't really tell you much to extrapolate such broad conclusions. Do they specifically compare you to white people? Or just people in general? I look young for my age as well but have never ascribed any weird racialist angle to it. Seems like you have some shit to unpack. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3896053&forum_id=2#35425979) |

Date: February 17th, 2018 4:07 PM Author: Odious liquid oxygen I am mainly surrounded by whites, so I just assume they mean compared to whites, but who knows
I don't think I look young for my age compared to, say, Asians |

Date: February 17th, 2018 4:10 PM Author: Kink-friendly School Cafeteria Seems like you're dealing with a skewed sample. I'd wager you'd get similar reactions regarding your age in a primarily hispanic or black country -- granted, asians maybe tend to look a bit younger due to facial hair prevalence.

Date: February 17th, 2018 4:13 PM Author: Odious liquid oxygen Blacks look pretty young for their age, probably younger than Asians do. The issue is that many blacks get fat, which makes them look older, but I've met many blacks in their 40s that I thought were in their 20s because they have insanely tight, smooth skin for life.

Date: February 17th, 2018 4:15 PM Author: Kink-friendly School Cafeteria If you say so - I don't think I've ever mistook a 40 year old anything for 20 so I can't really relate. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3896053&forum_id=2#35426047) |

Date: February 17th, 2018 4:08 PM Author: Odious liquid oxygen I'm not as pretty as her, but that's not the point
The point is that not having a face full of wrinkles and not being a fat cow in your 30s in the US = "OMG SO YOUTHFUL" whereas in the rest of the world you're just average
The standards in the US for anyone over 25 are now at literal farm animal levels thanks to every cow literally patting themselves on their backs with their cow hooves |
