By societies standards my grandmother wasn't an attractive woman and probably didn't turn many men's heads in her life. But to me, she was more beautiful than any super model. She was the only unconditional love that I have ever experienced in my life. I loved her wrinkled hands and face and the kindness of her soul. No man has ever even remotely given me that kind of love. We're looking in the wrong place for acceptance and love. Give it to yourself and the precious babies.

I dont understand this obsession these women have with denying reality and insisting we find old women as attractive or desirable as younger women. They just aren't and that's just the reality. Youth in general, whether it is men or women, is celebrated and is objectively more attractive. Everyone ages and it sucks. But that's part of life and if the current Western culture wasnt as individualistic and obsessed with youth, sex and appearance, older people and especially women would find other roles in society to derive purpose from. For women especially, it is difficult for them to accept aging as they get so many advantages in life and have a lot of sexual power simply for being a young, relatively attractive woman and it's difficult for them to lose those privileges they took for granted when they were hot and young. Eastern cultures and families have great respect for elders and dont discard them or ship them to homes to die alone like Western culture and families do and women embrace the roles of wise elders and grandmothers when they get older.. instead of still being desperate for attention like Paulina and posting pics of her in lingerie online. Yes, she still has a great body.. but there is something undignified about a 55 y/o woman doing that.

The doctor said there was no surgery needed; menopause would shrink them. I was still a size 3/4 at age 44, then menooause hit me square in the face at 45. What has transpired since has been out of my control. I describe it as an alien took over my body. Hypothyroidism, severe adrenal fatigue, hormones out of control...no amount of rest, or medicine, or dieting, or exercise, or gluten free, sugar free, organic, raw, etc. has changed a thing. I am the heaviest I have ever been, a size 16, and accepting myself better and better each day. It sure is eye opening to be heavy-set though. The amount of fat shamers out there is undeniable. Personally, I am loving the fact that a lot of companies are catering to sizes XL and up more readily now. I hope you find a way to love yourself whether heavy or thin.

I’m proud to tell my age to anyone. When you’ve lost both a cousin at age 26 and your son’s friend at age 16 to cancer, suddenly complaining about aging seems so shallow and self centered. Life is so precious and each year that brings new wrinkles is a blessing. I actually look forward to aging. It’s a badge of honor and each wrinkle tells a story. You truly do gain wisdom. I look at life so differently in my middle age. I realize that I wasted so much of my youth on petty things that you could never really realize that they were actually petty until you grow with age and gain that priceless wisdom. It saddens me when I see a young person or child die. They’ll never understand life in the beautiful way that an elderly individual does. Life’s lessons unlearned and many missed opportunities to mold yourself into a better individual through trial and error. Missed opportunities to experience things and to teach the younger generations what you’ve learned. It’s just so sad. The older I get, the more I’m in aww of those that have lived to be 80 or 90 plus years old. To understand all the things I’ve already lived through, and then realize that I would have to live my entire life of over 4 decades over again, plus 7 years just to live to my Nanas age of 93, really just blows my mind! I totally appreciate the elderly even more! I can only imagine their perspective and the things they’ve seen and been through. That’s why I love talking to people that are older. I can only hope that it’s in Gods plan that I will be so lucky to see myself look so old. It’s absolutely beautiful and a true gift from God!

So true! And it happens to us guys, too. I remember when I hit my late 40s noticing the disappearance of the "tension" Paulina was talking about.

Great topic, as a 60 year old gay guy you’re invisible in WeHo at 40. It’s punishing, the oppression of youth worship. Put yourself at the table and offer it up to the Magick Man. The thing is that in other cultures women, and men, don’t gets so wigged out by their aging faces when they have dignified roles and activities and relationships that matter much to them such that the loss of beauty can be tolerated, because they live with so much more than that. Getting that ego hit of catching someone’s eye is so cheap and it’s not sustaining, and in America we live off of it, and it’s crap. One of the saddest things about Covid was all the grandmas and grandpas that died in Italy. They lived with their children and grandchildren and they help with the caretaking and with making the meals and with playing with the children or telling them stories.it was a terrific loss to the family because they were the heart of the family. But the Italians cherish their elderly by and large. And many other cultures do as well, and those people as they get older, just aren’t so obsessed with getting older One of the most gorgeous Italian actresses of her time, Sophia Loren, I think she had a good perspective on aging because she had children to focus on and family was important to her and I think she really aged well. I don’t know if she had any cosmetic surgery but I honestly don’t think she was obsessed with staying young looking. You got to know when to move into the next stage of your life with grace so that you’re not embarrassingly overstaying you’re welcome in an earlier decade you are no longer a part of. a most uncomfortable age, I think, is like your second adolescence, 45-60 aka “midlife crisis.” The slow, final death of anyThing resembling youth and beauty lol. That’s when people really get into the creams and the injections, maybe they go under the knife, the hair color, and then you wake up and just go “0Fxxx this is just not going to work anymore” let go, and focus on something more important, like getting involved with other people, Family or community, Art, garden, whatever floats your boat.. it doesn’t have to be pretty it just can be meaningful, and then it’s beautiful.Like my coworker, an aging nurse used to tell me (and she kept her hair a lovely shock of white), “getting old ain’t for sissies!” LOL I love that. When I also disclosed to her that I was going to resign my job because I really didn’t like the town I moved into and I needed to go back to Southern California to be with my parents etc. she told me immediately and directly, “do it! don’t wait another month. why are you waiting if you don’t like it here? leave.“ And I totally get it now because why waste a month of your life as you get older you see time is shrinking you better make every day count and I did leave and I’m glad I did.

I don't know about you, girls, but now at 45 I feel more beautiful and empowered then ever before, because I don't feel the pressure to look perfect,I just want to be happy and enjoy my life. I have been through so much ,I don't want the pressure of looking the certain way. I can not and I will not compete with 20 year olds. It's pure nonsense! Also, I am not on men's radar that much anymore, there are younger women who attract their attention,so,to be honest it takes off a lot of pressure. 🤣😂😂😂 If you focuse on being attractive to men you will suffer, if you focus on enjoying life you will be much happier.

Justine Bateman battled for years with anorexia and bulimia. She almost died due to organs shutting down , she has always talked about it. And helps others in their fight against these illnesses as well. Dunno if she ever did any sort of drugs , alcohol etc but she did had these illnesses for decades. And she decided to carry her journey on her face instead of erasing it. But at least she’s alive and healthy today not many women survive these despicable diseases . Paulina is still struggling with accepting aging gracefully and she talks about how deep she has to battle within herself to not get facelift. But sometimes succumbs to doing peeling , microbladding etc. She acknowledges that just like everyone she’s conditioned to fight against aging and that’s why she’s trying to ‘deprogramme ‘ herself.

Growing up I believed my looks were very important, it was my currency thru life. My worth was in my looks until I got older but not because I was aging, I wanted to feel better not feel wanted because the men I attracted only wanted what they saw, not who I was. Decades later and with a lot of internal work, I now have the self-worth I wish I would’ve had when I was younger. I would’ve put myself first over the approval of men and the competition of other women.

I loved her explanation of being invisible. Being invisible and feeling insignificant is rather depressing. I wish our society honored age. I enjoyed this interview.

Most people fear aging as it renders them invisible, obsolote, unworthy, taking up space and using resources that can be better served by younger people. In this age of plastic, older women especially are seen as dispensable, reviled for aging as they have been feted all their lives for their youthfulness and fecundity but not celebrated for their intelligence, personality, wisdom, et al; and so they are not allowed to grow older. It should be a crime to deny women the grace, compassion to reach the fullness of their experiences during the best time in their lives.

I've never been bothered by aging. I used to be a hairdresser and I recall how many women were so fixated on their looks and never happy.

I've seen a couple of people who are horribly disfigured from an accident or burns and they have to face the world like this. I realized I had no right to complain about anything. Be happy with what you have:)

Her book needs to have as many likes as this interview has. This is so important. THIS is women taking their power back and not being brainwashed by unrealistic standards by the beauty and fashion industry to get women to buy.

We as women need to lift one another up, not down. It is fine to have opinions, but be careful in how me point fingers. Sometimes each persons situation is very unique, for example, I have a handful of friends from high school that smoked cigarettes everyday. Most of them look older than my nonsmoking friends or acquaintances. All of us have different journeys and I honestly think that most women do not see the beauty in looking older.

At a certain point, they end up with the same bland fake look, which I am certain, weighs on their soul. We rarely get to see true aging beauty, so I value and appreciate what Paulina and Justine are doing.

My 25 year old son had an excellent response to something I said which was, "I've lost my youth". He replied with, "You've haven't LOST your youth, your LIVED your youth". Signs of aging started for me 1 year ago at age 53 (profile pic I was 48 so not wrinkled yet). Menopause hit. Jowls are present as is everything else that I don't need to spell out. I am not a celebrity nor do I possess features considered attractive for today's standard of beauty (wide set almond shaped eyes, upturned slim nose, full mouth, slim jaw, long neck, etc) and I find myself struggling with feeling good about how I look and participate less in having photos taken of me. I need to go full circle regarding what my son said because it helps so much! Older people do become invisible but we had our glory in our younger days need to realize we all transition into old age and the things that go along with it. It's not a bad thing. However, within our own age group we are NOT invisible and are accepted. It feels good! Regarding Justine, part of the reason she may look a wee bit older than she is is due to choosing the wrong hair colour (If she let it go grey she'd look better as it would match her skin tone better) and use of heavy dark eyeliner. If her hair was to her shoulders it would lift her up too but some women have to hold on to their length (I cut mine off---hair grows back!). In addition, she doesn't have a lot of body fat which makes the skin appear 'thinner' adding a few years on (or her skin is just thinning at a faster rate). But in the end who cares? It's who we are as people that matter a lot more than the shell we were born with. When someone who is older is fun to be around, I am not focusing on their weathered or aging features (if they have them).

I'm 68 yrs old and I never felt old based on my looks until a few years ago when I was going through several medical challenges and depression. I looked in the mirror one day and was surprised to noticed how much my face had changed. Since that day I have become aware that my "ageing" is directly related to my physical and emotional health. Also, others' opinion of my looks has decreased in importance as I've grown older.

When I was a teenager, was told I looked like Justine Bateman. I hope I still do. She's still beautiful to me.

Paulina NOW looks Amazingly beautiful, I don't think she realizes how gorgeous she still is!

This woman is a beauty. If I was single, I would be giving her a try. I hope she finds someone that will give her the love and life she deserves.

It's not just America, it's all over the world. One time I woke up and suddenly people stopped noticing me. When I shop or interact, everyone is still nice but cold and distant. It was weird it still is. After some age, if you are a woman, people really stop thinking of you as someone worth even a smile or a smalltalk. It may be this culture that women are objects of beauty, decorations, that looks and sexuality are our "empowerment" and without that, we are nothing. As I am pushing 50 I am coming in terms with the fact that I am aging, and I will never look like I looked when I was 35 again. But well, it's not all that I am. After certain age, if you have nothing else to show or to be proud of except how still sexy and youthful you are, then you might have a problem.

I've heard this referred to as the "invisible cloak of menopause", and I think (at least from my own experience @ 54), it's true. For me, it was actually a relief - I am okay-looking, not beautiful (I am athletic and slim, though) but that didn't stop dudes from hitting on me at the gym, in bookstores, etc., and I really couldn't stand it. I've never defined my happiness, worth or value through the lens of whether men find me attractive, so I'm glad they've stopped bothering me. I'm not sure I've noticed being ignored by shop owners or not...I don't think so, but I could be and just not aware of it. I'd be lying if I said I am loving the physical aging process: crepe-y skin, a sagging seat, and deepening creases on my face kind of suck, but it's better than the alternative 🤷🏻‍♀️. My biggest issue now is trying to get a job, and I suspect my age is a negative for at least some of the jobs I've applied for. I don't look (or act, whatever that actually means 😂) my age, and I do things that most middle-aged women don't do...like 40-70 mile solo backpacking trips. I've prided myself on being an outlier in many ways throughout my life, and I don't see that changing until I'm dead 👍🏻 😄.

It's definitely harder to maintain relevance in a society that worships youth...but also seems to overlook the associated immaturity and lack of experience that goes along with it.

I am fifty- six and I think your great and keep going you give us hope and not throwing ourselves away. Not all women look perfect at 56, but self love is important and taking care of our mental health and more.

Funny, some say Justine looks old, others say she's beautiful - and so overwhelming message is "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" (including You and your thoughts about yourself)

This message is so important and I love the honesty!

Paulina hit the nail on the head when she said you become invisible. I will never understand it and, quite frankly, it bothers me. Who wants to be invisible, especially when you spend time putting yourself together? If you were once considered attractive, it's a harder pill to swallow. I can understand why so many women just stop trying. I'm an absolute ghost to men and younger people but I still prefer to look good for myself. I'm fit and in my 40s and society just has no place for women like me, even if I look younger than my age. Something is not right here. Kudos to both of these women for speaking some truth. We need a movement.

It is harder for us who were always beauties. Hate to say it , but when you are pretty and always admired, complimented , envied and your looks have provided so many advantages and opened doors. When your looks are slowly fading as mine are at 56 it really hurts. It's been my identity for so long. I am still considered good looking "for my age" but am starting to notice becoming invisible to younger people and not every ones head turn when I walk into a room. I am intelligent and witty but my looks were my identity. They probably wouldn't have been if it wasn't for others reactions all these years. At jobs co workers would assume I was dumb for how I looked but within about a month they learned I had brains too. In some ways it's freeing and I don't care as much. I will wear the right shoes for comfort now instead of fashion etc but it is losing a big part of who you are or were always perceived. Aging does suck not to mention arthritis kicking in but I do try to still look as nice as I can with tasteful make up and clothes at least just to please myself. I feel good when I look good. I am not trying to sound conceited. Just writing is helping me come to grips with this new stage of my life plus my kids grown and empty nest.

It's so funny. A young woman in her late twenties early thirties cursed me out. I let her get out what she was feeling. When she was done I informed her that I was sixty-one years old, she almost fell on her face. She apologized. One year later I asked her what the anger was about. She told me she was jealous of me. I was shocked. That was the weirdest thing I've ever been through but I do get strange looks from young women. Ppl always tell me I look young for my age.

Im 57 and I too have had problems with younger women. I too was shocked. They are so competitive and insecure. I don't remember ever behaving that way towards older women when I was younger. No I never did. But, at least you got her to talk about it.

These were 2 of my favorite women growing up, and I like them even more now. Malorie Keaton was the best on Family Ties, back when TV shows were actually entertaining and not politically motivated. I love them for embracing their age, as we all should! Be grateful for each day we're alive. Gratitude is where true beauty lies.

This is such a cutting edge conversation. Yes!!! Let’s do this.

I love that I’m maturing, because I’m still here to see myself...

Enjoy every age you are . I hate when you ask someone how old they are and they cant just say the age they act likes its bad being over 40 . embrace it be proud

I love this it’s been a long time coming.

I remember running into a female co-worker I use to work at, at the grocery store. She was apologising for not having any make-up on, that she didn't have the time to put any on, cause she was in a hurry, I was confuse by that, cause she was as beautiful as I remembered. I was just so glad to run into her with or without any make-up.

I completely agree with Justine. There are some woman that I think actually look better as they've aged. For me, it's something about the the loss of the fat and collagen in their cheeks that gives their cheek bones a more defined and sculpted look. Too many fillers or an extreme face-lift often takes away from that.

She also put in a humble brag about how young her mother looks for her age and how she hopes she got those genes. Tamron doesn't want to relate to this topic on aging, but she is 50 and Paulina is 56 and and Justine is 55. Tamron may have have some work done and good for her if she did. It is no reason to discount these two women. I liked Tamron on the Today show. This was not her at her best, she really was disrespectful to those two women. That's too bad.

Just about every celebrity gets plastic surgery now. Fillers, face lifts, lip injections, etc. No doubt Tamron had work done, too. Tamron can't relate, and acted like a strange child that could not just talk about her own aging. Since you used the phrase "white woman", I can tell you are prejudiced and probably under a certain age of wisdom and experience. Something is fishy about you and your motives to fight for nothing but spread hate. Good job doing both. It will be your downfall in life. Don't go around starting fires without a reason.

Paulina has a lot to say and she is so kind and thoughtful now. She was a super model, in her younger days. At some point in the conversation, Tamron tuned out and bragged about herself and her mother. It was a slight inflicted on the two women she was talking to! Tamron ran away from a topic that would have been very interesting. I felt that Justine Bateman and Paulina had a lot to say about aging as a celebrity in the public eye. Tamron said she is 50. Let the conversation roll. Tamron put a stop to it. She never engaged except for bragging. This is not the Tamron I knew from when she was on the morning show. This is the first episode I have ever watched of Tamron's show and it was here on KZread. I only watch a lot of things for the guests they have on, most people probably do, here on KZread. I don't care for the brusque personality of Tamron that I see here. She used to be so kind, thoughtful, smart, vulnerable and it made her so endearing and beautiful. I guess she hardened up and has a new personality. I will have to search further to find out some more about Justine Bateman and continue with Paulina and her fun conversations, too. I appreciate your insight. I wish Tamron had let them talk more. Tamron one upped them and was a little narcissistic. Strange for Tamron. Is this her new thing? I'm not sure.
