#a lot of 'ageing' is cellular damage and morally neutral

[cleverthylacine]

be pro-ageing but not pro-biological damage.  It’s fine to admire signs of a life well lived but just like I can admire scars without wanting to have events in my life that lead to them, I admire healthy aging but I’m not a fan of collagen loss or bone loss or sun damage.  I do many things to keep myself looking younger than my age and am pleased when people are surprised by it, but that is largely because I do not like having uncomfortable skin or feeling like a single fall will kill me.

There is much to be admired in the wisdom gained from living a long life; if you have not died by the time you’re 70 or 80 or 90 or 100+, you must have done something right and you must have some survival skills.

But you can admire the life experience and not the fragility.

be pro-aging but wear sun screen. sun protection is not beauty industry propaganda it will save you. wear it. or else.
