      I’m fifty. My wife is 49, her friends and my life long friends are around the same age and they definitely include a few grandmas. In 2023 fifty does not look like fifty did when I was a teen. The amount of smoking hot women in their fifties that pass for later thirties and early forties is incredibly high.

      EDIT: Case in point, Marisa Tomei as Aunt May. Why Aunt May ever looked like an octogenarian is beyond me.

        smoking hot women in their fifties

        Coincidentally, the decline of smoking probably had something to do with this.

          I never thought of it, but you’re probably right. Most everyone I know has quit smoking by around 2003.

            And lead in the air. That dropped off significantly.

            now we gotta get folks to realize alcohol is shit and poison like nic

            at least curb the superiority complex people seem to have over drinking large amounts of poison to feel the same as a couple bong rips with 10x the internal damage

        Why Aunt May ever looked like an octogenarian is beyond me.

        The protagonist was a 27 year old actor playing a schoolkid so I have to assume that everyone in the Raimi universe ages about 75% faster than we do

          I ain’t complaining. Google Photos gave me an album from 2008 and my wife looks exactly the same (hair dye is magic). Sadly, I look like I’m pushing seventy and dating a woman half my age. Nevermind… I’m ok with that.

        Yeah as a 29 year old I was flirting with a woman I thought was only a bit older than me, then after a bit of making out we were chatting and learned her daughter and I are the same age…

      Know a woman who was grandmother by 28.

      Yep, her daughter had the first child at 14, too. Apple, tree, you know the drill.

    Weirdly enough anime is closest to real life. They’ve been putting chemicals in the water that are turning the frigging grandmas hot. …or I’m getting old. I’m probably just getting old

    Honestly, its rare that you see ugly or old anime characters. Especially if they’re girls/women

      Uhh, ugly and old characters come up pretty often. Though, this might depend on what genres you watch.

      I know you’re making a joke, but for the uniformed:

      1. watch Jojo

      2. Lisa Lisa (bottom actual grandma) is in her 50s, but training in hamon decreases the effects of aging.

          Yeah the whole “stand” thing was just yet another attack on the sanity and coherence of that series. The entire thing is an exercise in suspension of disbelief and faith despite constantly escalating deus ex machina. That being said, chefs kiss.

    Because when you want the best representative of an old woman, the one you should chose is the one that literally doesn’t age…
