The Average Asian Aging Process

Featured Replies

I think Thais age faster than Europeans. They have good genes but they eat cheap crap food, smoke too much, too much sugar, not to mention the yaba ...

My girls all eat very nutritious food - that's all that's provided for free, they have to spend their own pocket money on snacks. Obviously no alcohol, smoking or drugs are tolerated.

And they get a minimum of 2 hours strenous exercise every day.

The other key is to make sure that you catch them on the upside curve where they only get more lovely as they get older, let them seek greener pastures once they've started the down side.

Although I have to admit, I've seen some pretty nice looking women even past 22-23. . .

Everybody ages quickly here because of the Sun. And the lighter your skin the more quickly you will age. Thais love pure white skin. That's it really. Nothing to do with diet, As to why white skin is considered beautiful - same as England in the 18th century - you're not working on the farm, are you? As an aside, hats in England became unfashionable for men with the introduction of automobiles, basically if you were prosperous you didn't need one. This whole tanned body look took off with mass production. People working in factories were pale, so it no longer signified wealth to be white-skinned, but it did signify wealth to be able to afford a holiday in the South of France. Hence the whole industry that has since built up. Actually tjhe whole concept is a bit dated now, as black, tanned, or white skin really mean nothing in terms of wealth, But societal values lag behind, so there are still people who think the tanned look is beautiful, and people who love pale, white skin, or think black skin is exotic in some way. As for me, I don't really care to be honest, but then I'm a guy, so if my skin gets all old and gnarly I think it adds to my attractions, adds character if you will. Having said that there's no doubt that in women young looking skin is attractive, what color is immaterial really. To much sun can be a turn off. White skin tends to get gnarly with age, whilst black skin does tend to retain its youthful vigour, especially in a Western environment. But these are just adornments anyway. I go for bone structure myself. Now there are some women who will be beautiful no matter what happens to their skin. You look at them, and you know at 60 they''l be basically the same as they are 20, just older. Strangely enough these are the women who seem to have the most character and are the most diffficult to handle. Especially for a useless ne'er do well like myself. .

I age like a Thai Chinese person. I know how old I am but no one else can tell except for naive Thais and ex pats who think they know how old people are by looking at them.

Drivel.

Good 30th post. Of course we/me or anyone else does not really know who you are referring to or what you mean or how to respond. But I'll give it a shot.Drivel drivel!
