ppl need to draw older versions of characters more attractive. hate this concept of 'no matter what youll get uglier as you age' like maybe if ppl drew older characters more attractive then ppl wouldntbe so scared of getting older. not bc u have to be conventionally attractive or still skinny/muscular/wrinklefree etc but bc its this idea that its a slow slide into ur body and face changing against ur will and like,,,,,theres nothing u can do abt it. ull just change. idec abt wrinkles i know thats inevitable its just something?? abt how its like portrayed that you cant just stay the same just like an older~ version of urself,,,in media its always like 'ohh yes theres me when i was 25 young n hot' and the older version is like comepletly fuckinf different. like even if they were JUST SAY they were plus size with short straight hair and like omg goth style just go w me here lmao,,,the older version will be some super thin frail lookin lady with long frizzled hair and old grandma clothes. like why..,,,,is there such a vast difference why cant we have the same fucking person just......older?!!??? like she can still be plus size wearing black jeans and a tshirt with the same fucking haircut why does the hair always have to change lmfao not tht ppl dont naturally want differnt styles as they go thruout life its just insidious to me that media portrays ageing as this complete 180 process that will change everything about you and you simply CANNOT remain the same.
why cant ppl just look the same but older. omg like why cant characters just look the same but older. why do they have to change eveything abt them to make them so much (and this is crucial!) less interesting.....like they want ppl to be afraid of ageing bc ur supsoed to instead of geting MORE interesting w age which you would think??? apparently youll get less interesting and more boring. its how older ppl are portrayed and it makes it feel liek a breath of fresh air every time i see a rly attractive older person in media whos like stylish etc NOT bc ppl should have to be lmao sakhxnssnd but bc its like oh wow you caaaan still be?? who knew!11111🙄🙄🙄 they just make all the older characters so boring and like they all shop at the same store. its like you lose ur individuality as you age. its defintly a media thing i know ppl arme tlike that irl it just bothers me that its like, oh r just gonnnnnnnnna get less attractive and ur body is DEFITLY going to change like ytf does it have to lmao like size 10 at 25 size 10 at 40???? why does that have to change size 2 at 20 size 2 at 50??????? whyyyyy does that have to change long hair at 30 long! hair! at! 40! goth princess at 15 wheres the goth ladies at 40!!!!!!! its.....annoying
#its all ageism thats pushed by media to make you aftaid of ageing ovivously ilnowinknow#but still#like this idea that everyones gonna gain 200 pounds and go bald and wear glasses and wear cardigans and loafers and im picking the cliche t#thingns bcthats what!!!! media does!! it makes it like no metter how unique you are at 20 ur just gonna all morph into the same person at l#like 40#and theres nothinn u can do abr it#so annoying lmao
