re: Why did people in the past look so much older? (Picture from the 80s inside)

My class is turning 60 this year and I’ve been wondering when do we start looking old like our parents and grandparents? Especially the women? Definitely better health products, better eating habits and better health care.

You want to see young people looking long past their young years, just look back into the 20's-50's. My late father-in-law, born in 26, was just 16 when he lied about his age and went into the Navy in 42 and was heavily involved in the Pacific Theater against the Japs when the Marines were island hopping. He piloted the landing craft to the beaches to drop off the troops.

The wife and I have a picture of him from that time and he looks to be in his late 20's at best and very much resembles a young Art Carney.

Guess what? You already do but you just won't accept it.

There's nothing psychological about that. They all look at least 10 years older than their age.
