I’m curious to see y’all post some examples of what y’all think a 45 year old typically looks like

...I'm 28 and can still pass for a high schooler...

btw if this is true you will more than likely experience the same thing when you get to my age...I used to look like a teen too when I was 28...I’ve always looked way younger than I am...me being slim helps too I suppose

I always looked younger than I was and use to hate it
when I was 27, I was mentoring group of young adults 18-22 and they really thought I was one of them in the first day :russ:

as a teacher I liked working among the students...not just standing in front the room in one spot talking to them like a politician...on many occasions a coworker or admin would come in the room and sometimes they’d have to really look for me if I was sitting amongst the students helping them

I feel it man, it's amazing how genetic works. In high school while I looked like 12 year old in the 9th grade, there were students that were my age but looked like they were in their mid 20's. lol

ya I remember this spanish dude had a full damn beard and moustache as a freshmen in HS lol...it’s not until my late 20s/early 30s I accepted my boyish looks

*pats face*

my folks looked young for a long ass time too...moms kinda is starting to look her age (she’d be mad if she knew I thought that lol)...pops is older than her tho and still looks very good for his age

No way in hell you can be 37 and look like a 20 yr old.
Bianca Lawson would like a word with you. Even Stacey Dash kept up her looks at one point. shyt Bernice Burgos had surgery, but she still looks young for an abuela

Yes & no. LL had a facelift years back. People noticed when he was on that magazine cover with chinky eyes, lol

Yeah, some co-workers and even women i messed with thought i was at least in my early 30s. "Wait, you're in your 40s?"

My youthful energy, knowledge of current events & trends + the way i dress AND no grey hairs :blessed:

What gives me away is when i go in-depth about the 80s & 90s

Im 39....
:ohhh: seasoned coochie :banderas:

Same with my pops, he looked young until he was in his mid 50's when he got sick (diabetes, blood pressure, kidney issues etc) and that took a toll on him.

I feel like if you dark skin, eat good, work out and generally look after yourself both physically and mentally, you can retain your youthful appearance for a long time.

1st off he’s a celebrity with bank and access and most important time to stay in shape

many Other brothers don’t have bank and don’t have time because of work and kids

however a lot of brothers mental health isn’t right because the shyt we going through in life

but all in all black men more than our sisters stay in shape as we get older

Its the hairline. All these young lookin old nikkas have one thing in common: a solid hairline!

He'd look his age if his hairline was fukked up

:mjcry:

yup. Main reason why I’m fighting the good fight. Crispy hair line knocks 10 years from your age, off top.
