How old am I?

I changed username for this as I have disclosed my age previously.
I uploaded this photo to AI to guess my age and I’m wondering if real humans are more accurate.

How old am I?

Ah, but you can generally tell a lot from a person’s knees. These knees look slightly saggy, so I would say they belong to someone approaching middle age. Maybe 40 to 49?

I would say hands and neck are also more obvious on giving away someone's age.

My legs are horrendous - genetically unblessed with varicose veins- had them since my 20s 😂

No offence but AI was being kind

I’ve already said multiple times there is absolutely no offence taken as I have no aspirations to look younger than I am.

Your knees aren't sagging yet so I put under 50.

I thought you were my age (50s) but the outfit is not flattering.

It’s for running, not intended for flattering, even if I felt the need to flatter myself or anyone else

I think you are completely missing the point, so once more for those down the back; I DONT CARE HOW OLD I LOOK!!!

I was asking to see how human responses would compare to AI

I know that you don't care (and good for you).

I was merely pointing out that the responses you get on here are skewed by people not answering honestly for all sorts of reasons. I did admit that I would answer dishonestly, but ironically I would have "accidentally" been correct.

Congratulations on the impending arrival of your first grandchild - very exciting.

Your skin is amazing for 60, your hands are so smooth.

bigplate · 13/09/2026 19:29

Deleted, because I just saw the update!

therapymedswhatelse · 13/09/2026 20:24

You have fantastic muscle tone and skin is clear and smooth too. You absolutely could pass younger than 60. I wish I had your legs!

I think MN should ban these threads. How do we know that the op is genuine and that the photo is not of someone else?

I agree with this actually. An OP on a thread like this could well be posting a photo of someone else to invite criticism.

PrettyLittleRose · 13/09/2026 20:37

I haven't looked through the thread, and am going to guess 55.

Well to be fair if that was the aim it failed spectacularly since most people have been very polite ( other than those that told me I was trolling, insecure, looking for validation, needed to iron my workout gear and looked like an overweight older man with breasts😂😂😂)

There you go then. Point proven. If it's not you, then another woman has been subjected to those criticisms.

SlightlyTerrifiedButPolite · 13/09/2026 20:57

I’m guessing 52

Fatiguedwithlife · 13/09/2026 21:01

Your legs look younger than mine and I am 46. Mine are wrinkly and have Varicose veins. But your outfit ages you. My gosh is anywhere between 30 and 60

SeptemberRains · 13/09/2026 21:02

The op has said she is 60.

Surely you can see I’m joking…
I guess I could be using a photo of someone else but it’s an odd photo to have randomly available of someone else, and as someone else commented it’s not exactly dramatic and obviously going to invite criticism.

if it makes you feel better I could upload loads of other photos of me but that seems like overkill

An overweight older man with breasts? WTF? 😆

Aren't some people just awful?! I can see now that you say you're 60.

Oh for goodness sake!

SeptemberRains · 13/09/2026 21:38

@Autumngirl5
Actually MN have deleted similar threads where they felt the op was not posting in good faith - they should just ban them altogether.

ViciousCurrentBun · 13/09/2026 21:55

I also have 60 year old legs but I’m not brave enough to put them on for comment.

summater · 13/09/2026 22:13

My legs have looked old since I was about 50, they are quite long and slim but I keep them covered as I have saggy knees. OPs legs look quite young.

So many people seemingly trying to hurt your feelings today OP. I love your attitude. I think your skin looks amazing and your legs are great. Even if they weren't, so what!
