old?

I think now days people really start to look older after 55. 

People don't look really old until their late 70s these days.

People stop looking young around the age of 30, give or take a few years.

You become an Atlas old around 30 but not until 50 in the real world.

I'm three years shy of 30 and I am losing a lot of my youthful look.  Obesity really makes you older, faster.  I'm also getting a few wrinkles starting to show up and some gray hairs, especially under the top layer.

Most people on this board make me feel old...  I would say 50 or so.  It obviously depends on the person, I will be 27 in a month, but most people tend to think I look like I'm in my early 20's.  Hopefully looking several years younger than what i am will stay around for awhile Smiley

37/38. There are many, many reasons for this age, at least as the end of any claim to youth; if I have time later i'll go through them.

The body doesn't begin to decay until around age 35, so that makes a useful cutoff for "old". Of course, one should have visibly aged through years of adult cares and responsibilities long before then.

Actually, studies show that the body begins to show signs of age around age 19 or 20.

There's a guy who's 29 at my work who could pass for a high school student, so possibly.

That's most likely statistics concerning peak testosterone levels, sexual response, the first stages of hair loss, etc. With the exception of male pattern baldness, those things that can be hid through exercise.

When you start bragging about your age again.  (Just as you did as a kid).
