"But for males and females, physically, 40 in NOT the new 30. 40 is 40, and 30 is 30."
You are so right. I get tired of hearing people say, "Sixty (or some other year) isn't old." The heck it isn't. I'm 47 and am appalled by all the aches. I'm not talking about the exceptions or the superpeople out there. I'm talking about the average balding, paunchy, 47 year old slobs like myself out there.
Sorry for getting a bit off topic, but we do a real disservice to people when we ignore the aging process and think we're 25.
I used to be 25 and could act that way every day. Now I am over twice that and can act 25 only once or twice a week.
