You have an excellent point. That's part of the thesis of this video. A boomer dressed in Brady Bunch polyester with wide lapels and feathered hair would look older in 2025. youtu.be/vjqt8T3tJIE?...
@mahboi93 @HubPointless For sure, its more so to point out the amusing perception of age across generations. Someone else in this thread pointed out that Homer being in his 30s is not only a millennial but could have even been born in the 90s. https://t.co/mBuamzt27N
@xgigglypuff So 100% everything that you said. I want to add on that 1. Society emboldens men to be predators. Men need to disown this behavior. 2. There is a possible phenomenon happening about age covered here: https://t.co/H1L2VWfwUF 3. It's weird to sexualize every convo about body parts

@MaddockJr14721 @retro_twt https://t.co/wyOebYtss8 this is the best video ab it imo. If u don’t wanna watch it basically he says it’s wrong and people are aging essentially at the same rate.
@ChatPIP @manfuego007 Correct. Although arguable that people do age slower due to modern conveniences. It's a combination of the older hair styles and clothes, thinning hair can be addressed earlier now too. https://t.co/mgJXVfStF1
