Women, aging and the ultimate gap, beauty.

Reading the DailyMail days ago I came across an article about the view/feel/ from older women toward younger specially teens.....  http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2128411/My-looks-faded-I-admire-young-beauty--stop-painting-mature-women-embittered-old-witches.html

Written by Louise Chunn, who also write for TheGuardian, is not surprise that her whole career as a writer is about women-getting-old-fat, a quick search on her articles on Daily Mail archives will take you right there....  http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/search.html?s=&authornamef=Louise+Chunn

The article focuses on the just released movie "Mirror Mirror" a modern version of  the fairy tale "Snow White" starring Julia Roberts (49 years old) as the stepmother and evil jealous witch of Snow White played by Lily Collins (23 years old and clearly look younger and due to that she tends to play teen characters) a 26 years gap.

So lets see here what she is writing....  

Seeing as the old folk tale is up for not just one but two new cinematic versions, one has to ask: is the theme itself — the pathological jealousy felt by the older women when faced with younger competition —  perennial because it is true?


Yes, is true, and what is worse these days, is that the average woman feels jealous just after having her first child, considering teen pregnancy in the Western world is rising like taxes, is common these days to find women just 30 years old feeling jealous of a 15 years old who doesn't have a child to take care about and hasn't lost her young body, in case you haven't notice women are getting old more faster than ever, just Maria Yeater the woman who falsely accused the teen singer Justin Bieber of fathering her child looked to be around 45 in a average picture   that is gross and hard to believe for a woman who is just 20.


She continue... 


We may not feel neutral when we’re put to the comparison test, but by the time you are old enough to have had teenagers yourself — say, over 45 — you will also have gained some perspective on life.


This is nonsense, girl are getting pregnant as young as 14-15-16, the avearage age is 16, when they are 30 they already have teenage daughters, adding single motherhood and a welfare state which means they don't have to face penalty for their action introduced during the 70s and 80s, second wave feminism are having granddaughters to feel jealous about.Women born during the 80s were raised into the early stage of teeange irresponsibility, women don't have to wait until they are +40 to see their daughters star having "fun". 
Beauty and youth are valuable commodities, but they are in no way the most precious. Savvy grown-ups also give good health, sanity, friendship and solvency more of a look-in.


She is right, they are not, but women make it the most precious, the way women care about their look and the pursuit for the eternal youth is the way women make their look the center of their personality, tabloids, billions spends on cosmetic treatments, youth is related to health, clean skin, hygiene etc.


 ......friendship and solvency more of a look-in.

A attractive young woman can have all the friends she wants to, and her look gives her the opportunity to get ahead, like a quote that I don't' remember who coined it "a beautiful woman already have half of her live's goals achieved " a quick of knowledge of social network will tell you that.

Most mothers these days are proud of their grown-up daughters (I certainly am), but that doesn’t mean they don’t feel some twinges as they watch their girls come into bloom just as they themselves start to fade.


These feeling is translated into cockblock her daughter's futures male partners, the sexual trade union and feminists want to make it illegal to have sex with any women who (potencials daughters and females related) who is legal adult to have sex but look to be underage, or like California resenlty tried to pass a bill which make student-teacher relationship illegal whatever the age, this is after a case of a mother whose daughter 18 legal adult in the whole country dated her 41 years old teacher. Everything with the purpose to protect and keep their high value in the free sexual market.


Even so, I’d still say most women my age won’t lower themselves to nastiness when dealing with younger women, unless provoked by serious love rivalry (and then all bets are off).



Lie, the biggest rivalry older women face are the young nubile women, middle age men are not interested in women like this  and less interested in wake up next to them. That is why we have a cougar/MILF culture, women going dating guys young enough to be their sons, because they are the only one who will come to them looking for fast/quick sex, one night stands. 

For some women I spoke to, it’s a principle they have adopted because they remember being put down by older women when they were young.
No, far better to face it, and remember that our looks are not — and never have  been — the most defining part of ourselves.

Another lie, women who grew up during the second wave were the first women who most enjoyed the sexual liberation thanks to the male invention the pill, now that they are in the lowest ranked position in the free sexual market, they are the one trying to forbid any interaction young adult women/mature men, and trying to pass bill in order to rise the age of consent.


   
She finish by writingNo, far better to face it, and remember that our looks are not — and never have  been — the most defining part of ourselves.


Women value themselves and other women according to their look, who are the one reading about red carpet dresses, best dress vs bad dress? who are the one buying gossips magazines about celebrity plastic surgery? who are the one talking about the paparazzi's shoot to a famous woman who was seen not wearing make up? who keep the multimillionaire beauty industry flowing?
