An Example of Aging Gracefully. Susanna Hoffs, 1980’s vs Now.

I saw this picture linked above with this headline on Reddit. This is not achievable for most women. Susanna was already in the top 0.000001% of human attractiveness. That just naturally ages far more gracefully unless you become a heavy meth or other drug user. She’s also had some tasteful and very-expensive high-quality plastic surgery too — not to the extent that she looks inhuman, but definitely some work.

And she’s rich. That alone reduces stress and you just look better longer. And she works out, which also promotes skin youthfulness and elasticity (and this seems to be even more true for women than men here).

That said, no, contrary to popular belief, you really don’t have to look like a blazing dumpster when you’re 64 years old, unlike a lot of Americans believe. It’s not inevitable. But you aren’t Susanna Hoffs and looking like her at any point is not a realistic aspiration.
