#14 She’s 50 Years Old And Photoshops Herself To Look Like She’s In Her Late 20s. Women, There Is Nothing Wrong With Looking Your Age. You’re Not Expected To Look Like A 20 Year Old Forever

Image source: reddit.com

Hilary Mol : “No, not 20 forever, but the idea of “youth” is pushed on us pretty much until we’re in the grave. Still, it’s unrealistic for women to try and carve decades off of our faces (and bodies) in photos to try and convince anybody we’re THAT much younger than we are. Eep. J. Lo, you really don’t have to go this hard. You’re beautiful as you are.”

Makabert Abylons : “Ugh.. she is a beautiful woman as is.. most would die to look like her at 54.. but not not good enough for her”

Gwyn : “I wish accomplished women like this would embrace the way they look naturally. They must believe they have to look young to be admired or successful but it actually makes everyone like them less when they do this. It’s so sad.”
