In the past, some decades ago, women over 40 were said to be in the process of withering. Remember Soviet films, the main character of "Office Romance" was only 36 years old, and she was shown to us as a fading woman dressed in a women's outfit! If a woman decided to give birth at the age of 39-40, everyone around groaned and twisted her finger at her temple. And there was also an opinion that if a woman has already marked her 45, then she should not even try to start building a personal life.
Times change. Now a woman over 40 is experienced, well-groomed, beautiful, full of strength and life potential. The only sad thing is that many ladies 40+ add age to themselves with some things. And it's not about wrinkles!
How are women over 40 being treated today? Here the opinion is divided in two. Some argue that, thanks to modern cosmetology and plastic surgery, absolutely any woman 40+ can look like a twenty-year-old girl. How many of these madams are looking at us from the Internet, with condemnation, like, I could, but you can’t. Others agree that it is the age of 40 that is a kind of milestone, after which everything is already: late to give birth, late to build relationships, late to get younger, too late to do everything. Women seem to be written down as old women, putting pressure on them with their opinions and making them nervous. What now to start a bunch of cats and fill up the apartment with indoor flowers? Is life over?
And how many tips are now on the Internet about how to dress after 40, how to make up, how to behave, how to find a man, how to deal with wrinkles! But here I am of the opinion that for many, life is just beginning at 40, you just need to get rid of these things that age more than wrinkles!
What really ages women at the age of 40+?
Discussing ways to rejuvenate and the fear of aging
Unfortunately, not all women by the age of 40 accept themselves as they are. That is why they are constantly on the lookout for fleas and crow's feet, and then frantically begin to look for ways to rejuvenate their skin. They compare themselves to 25-year-old girls and sigh that there is no way they can be as fresh and resilient as those. Of course, a big plus, when a woman is always on fitness, eats healthy food and has no bad habits, it really slows down aging significantly. But many are simply obsessed with rejuvenation! Age over 40 is an opportunity to enjoy life, fall in love and fall in love with yourself, engage in your development, but many are busy preparing themselves for the transition to old age.
Sometimes you can meet women who, at their 35, 40, 50, talk about body cleansing, diets, beauty treatments in such a way that it seems as if they are already over 70!
Clothes, make-up, communication with men "by age"
How journalists lie to us, arranging a whole drama out of the female age "40". The Internet is replete with articles on “how to communicate with men when you are over 40”, “how to dress properly in 40+”, “how to make up if you are over 40 so as not to add age.” And now, speaking of the last two topics, we are presented with photographs of women who are definitely not 40, but all 60, or even 70! Where is the logic?
And why is everyone clinging to the age of 40, and not to 39 or 38? And I also think that when a woman switches from inexpensive youth clothes to expensive furs and velvet, she begins to look much older than her age. Of course, Mickey mouse t-shirts and tops with an open belly are too much, but you don’t have to change into “women’s” dresses.
age rejection
And here is the other side of the coin. Some women are so unwilling to be considered "old forty" women that they literally get stuck in the image of a young maiden. As a result, they look very comical. Mowing like a girl is rather stupid, on the contrary, a woman emphasizes her age in such a way, and turns others away from herself.
The desire to jump into the "last car"
Very often, women turn on the “late ignition”, and by about forty they suddenly realize that they need a new profession, some kind of hobby, a man, and so on. This, of course, is normal, but only when the lady began to listen to her desires and intends to fulfill them. But not when, in horror, she begins to grab onto everything in a row, trying to catch up. Unfortunately, in this case, the woman drives into her head that for the good she has already grown old and grabs at everything bad.
Prohibitions and restrictions
If a woman is 40 years old, this does not mean that she is now old, and it is not permissible for her to put on skirts, put on brighter makeup, go on a date and change something in her life. Someone puts up with the opinion of society and tries to keep up with stereotypes, but you do not have to do this. And let everyone condemn, twist a finger at the temple and turn into attendants. If you do not want this, you have the right to be different from everyone else!
Understand, dear women, for many, life at 40 is just beginning, it beats with bright colors and there is motivation to achieve interesting goals. It doesn’t matter how old you are, it’s important to accept yourself at any age, love and appreciate yourself, even for wrinkles, even for extra pounds, even if you are 40, 50 or 70!
