I feel like Whit men Don t age too bad and men of other races don't age bad its just white women

Some of them age in dog years I believe.

I remember a girl giving me examples of white women that aged gracefully.
The thing all of these women had in common was that they were all celebrities.
I told her, never look to celebrities they get procedures done all of the time, their photos are edited/airbrushed, they wear layers of face transforming make up.
If you want to know what the average woman between such an such age looks like, look at the Average every day woman.

I think for some white women this comes down to genetics, culture and exposure.

The lack of melanin in their skin makes it both thinner and more susceptible to UV ray damage. But if they make good lifestyle choices such as not smoking, drinking, wearing sunscreen and moisturizing regularly, they can counteract their high susceptibility.

Many are obsessed with tanning, which means skin damage and premature aging from spending too much time in the sun over the years.

White people also tend to live in countries where there's a lot of car use and plenty of high calorie processed food, which means an inactive life. Being fat and out of shape also makes you look old.

its all about how healthy the individual is and how much they take care of themselves.

It's very true. I've been around more diverse races of women than anyone on gag growing up in Toronto.

White women look mature looking after 25. Of course some have bigger cheeks and rude faces that makes them look younger long but generally dry looking skin and face and defined facial structures tend to make you look older and mature than other facial features.

I don't know really... Only white people where I live.
But it might be because you can tell more on fair skin then on darker skin - just like clothing. A stain on a white blouse is much more visible than a stain on a black blouse...

[LittleSally]

- doesn't mean the stain isn't there though...

Yes typically they do. It has to do with the Medline in their skin. Darker skin blocks sun light just like shades or tinted glass would. The sun slowly destroys Medline. This is why whites are more prone to skin cancer.

At least @aledeeurope will always love me! :*

It really depends on the person. The skin is obviously usually more sensitive if not taken care of. I know white women that still look young though.

My mom is 40 and still gets carded. o_e and I've been told I still look like.. 14 or something.

We got that baby face though. If I'm lucky it'll last.

It is a proven fact that 1 in 4 black women carry a gene which cause them to age slowly. Ever heard the saying black don't crack. No offense to any white women but most of the time they get crows feet at an early age.

[Jessicocoa]

I've never noticed. My mom is as white as can be and people think that she's my sister. She's 39 and she always gets carded.

[Anonymous]

maybe not faster, but not as gracefully. hahaha!!! not ALL, just more than others i think.

[Anonymous]

i think i heard somewhere that their skin is tighter thats why it wrinkles faster... I don't know

[apexalpha]

They got less collagen in the skin which makes it less elastic, so they wrinkle faster

[WhaChaChaKing]

They have lighter skin so the sun hurts it more or something.

[Anonymous]

I heard lighter skin ages more quickly. & "black don't crack."

[miserybusiness]

Uh not from what I've noticed but who caaares

[Asker]

I know people like white women the best

[miserybusiness]

Soooo?

[bubbletrouble]

As a white woman.

I can confirm.

[Amrod_Sáramondël]
