Why do Asian girls look younger than their age?

[Anonymous]

Most of the Asian girl I meet in my college look like they're 15, not until they said they're 20. Mind blown! Why do most Asian girls just look so young?

[LunaMay]

I'm currently studying abroad in Asia in my parents' home country for college, even my own classmates thought I am younger than them. They all thought I was 16 years old (the youngest in my grade just turned 18) but when I told them I just turned 21 (making me one of the oldest) they were pretty shocked. Lol, I look young in America and I still look young in Asia.

Like everyone said, it's in the genes.

Lucky you, yesterday a 27 year old guy in my college said I and my friends look like 40 or domething. omg I'm so pissed i dont look that old!! Arghhhh

[Asker]

that 27 guy is Asian by the way

[CheeseLoveWhiz]

From what I observed, there are two main reasons.
1. Caucasians are more prone to pre-mature aging after sun a lot of sun exposure. Also, many Asian women don't tan or sunbathe as much as some Caucasian women do.
2. There are many Asian ethnicities who are naturally shorter in stature genetically. Sometimes if a young women is short, she appears younger.

Its manly in the genes, then maybe lifestyle and diets and climate etc. Most Asians from the Asian subcontinent look young as a whole.

You gotta know one thing about Asians. They look cute and cuddly until they hit 35-40, then they look like raw chicken thats gone bad haha.

[TheINTJ]

:)) I'd say that's 50-60. My mom still looks like she's in her early 30s though she's over 40 now. :D

[Asker]

What do they look like after that? Will they look as old as me when I hit 35? I've seen an asian's grandmom probably over 60 but she stll look very good...

[kangy]

Raw chicken? I don't think so

[Catherine333]

You just admit that you are jealous. My Japanese grandma looks like she is middle-aged, but actually she is around 80-year-old!

[Catherine333]

An actress called Yin-Tze Pan. She is 71 years old, but she still looks young. Many Asians just like her, and it can break your theory based on jealousy.😏

[Insaan]

Yeah! So hot isn't it?
Infact.. i thought @kangy was 28-30 until i saw her age bracket of 36-45. Lol

[kangy]

Genes, of course:
1. Neoteny - slower trait development.
2. Thicker dermis - less wrinkles.
3. High ceramide - less dryness and irritation.

It's actually pretty simple, generally speaking. The more fat one has on their face, the less wrinkles they'll have.

The more contours, the more likely for wrinkles. Think of it like this, two twins, one is thin, is healthy and eats well. The other smokes, is fat.

The thin one is more likely to get wrinkles, the fat one won't have apparent wrinkles on their face

[Asker]

Dude this makes no sense.

[Opinion Owner]

I'll give you a very simple analogy.

Imagine pressing a piece of paper around a ruler. Then imagine pressing a piece of paper around a bottle.

Which do you think will crease more...

The less deep contours. The less the skin moves. Especially when making facial expressions

[queen-b]

I dono, but they are lucky
Cuz no matter how old they Are , they will always look young

[Asker]

Yeah... I feel old sometimes cuz I'm 18 and I look older than 23 Asians...

[reddiechin]

I'm half Asian half black and in my 30's. people continuously ask if I just left college.

[Klaatu51]

[Klaatu51]

by the way there's a girl here in her mid 30s who looks like 18-20. i won't mention her because you might end up depressed about it :-PPP

[Asker]

I look normal for 18. but all the Asian girls just look so young.
