Page 3 | Is 30 too old to be deemed conventionally attractive

ThatRealLemonCat · 09/10/2025 17:15

Angelina Jolie is 50...
and she has a conventionally attractive very symmetrical face

so there..

Some women became attractive in their 30s, because their features got more attractive and they learnt how to make the most of them.

Have a word with yourself OP! I've recently turned 49 and I'm bloody gorgeous.

333FionaG · 09/10/2025 17:05

I’m in my 60s and don’t feel ugly.
And I’m aging disgracefully.

TheDenimPoet · 09/10/2025 17:04

I'm 35 and more attractive than I was in my 20s - mainly because I've learned how to do my eyebrows and my acne has calmed down, but even so!

CandleMug · 09/10/2025 16:47

I would find a natural looking 35 year old more attractive than a 25 year old with lip fillers/botox or other injectables. I find the look utterly hideous and their faces would be so much more attractive without the shit they pump in to them.

Just about every reality tv show have women that ‘look like that’ and they all morph in to one with puffy cheeks, fish lips, massive white veneers and shiny foreheads.

So in that respect age is irrelevant

51 and as good looking as it gets - George Clooney would have a man-crush on me.

OriginalSkang · 09/10/2025 16:43

I (a 47 year old woman) was described as "fit" by a 35 year old, recently

Here for the comments, and they didn't disappoint 😁

Threads like these actually make me glad I've never been conventionally or otherwise attractive- you can't lose what you've never had!

Not that anyone can lose their looks in their 30s, that's just silly. Plenty of people look much better in their 30s than 20s, Gillian Anderson for example.

Or not

Perhaps have a look at why u need to post such nonsense.

I saw Catherine Zeta Jones playing golf in a howling gale last weekend. She’s in her 50’s and stunning.

There is a difference between looking beautiful and being sexually attractive and the later is strongly associated for biological reasons with youth, symmetry, looking healthy, and a slim waist that’s suggests you haven’t had children already

yes sexually attraction continues long past reproductive years but it certainly is behind a lot of “looking good” which really means “looking fertile and untouched “ from a biological / animal standpoint

I started to notice ageing from 26.

You’ve got a long road ahead of you op. A long road.

I personally think I was most attractive at 40. But now I'm 58 I have fewer shits to give.

OP, have you seen Judi Dench, Helen Mirren, Kristen Scott Thomas..... not one of them under 60 (& in fact, up to 30 years older than 60) and all of them are phenomenally attractive.
Dame Jilly Cooper (RIP), aged 88, and still pretty, giggly and obviously fantastic company - hugely attractive.
Why on earth do you think it stops at 30?!

If the OP’s a woman, then it was probably some genius male who told her that.
I’ve heard similar crap before, I remember being 32 and being told I was “too old to date” by a man who was older than me

Dontlletmedownbruce · 09/10/2025 16:30

Being brutally honest OP, if you were attractive at 22 you will still be attractive at 32 and 42 and possibly fading a bit after that. If you were not attractive at 22 then you never will be, and need to accept that. Some improve a bit in 30s, some disimprove a bit, as the face shape can change but generally the person is still on a ball park of the same level of attractiveness / beauty as they always were.

Show quote history

You are ageing from the day you are born.

I got lots more male attention (unsought) in my 30s and 40s than any other time.

Onegingerhead · 09/10/2025 16:10

To whom, exactly?
If you’re planning to date Leonardo DiCaprio (whose age cut-off seems to be about 27), then yes, it might matter.
You also wouldn’t be attracting a paedophile, I’m afraid.
On a more serious note though, from what I’ve seen, people tend to lose that “youthful” look somewhere between 28 and 35. It doesn’t make them unattractive, just different.

JaneJeffer · 09/10/2025 16:08

Yes, looking at anyone over 30 makes me physically sick.

😂

Logan’s run

LoveItaly · 09/10/2025 16:07

No! At 30 you are still in your prime, you only realise this when you are well beyond it, in my opinion.

Silverbirchleaf · 09/10/2025 15:34

Yes they are. Many older women are conventionally attractive.

Show quote history

Especially if they were ballerinas. They seem to have been handed out beautiful cheekbones and face structure from birth, as if they were destined for the ballet.

Meezer2 · 09/10/2025 16:03

I’m 58 and more beautiful than ever

BunnyLake · 09/10/2025 16:01

OneSnugLemonTiger · 09/10/2025 15:19

It’s more how I feel about myself

Is that to do with hitting the 30 mark? There is obviously a different vibe to being 20 something or 30 something but I personally felt at my most attractive in my 30s.
