Sometimes i see older people wearing skin revealing attire, and somehow it sits wrong with me. I know i have issues but... am i alone in this?

 

[GamerJM]

There isn't and it shouldn't. You have control over your body and what you wear, you should show whatever you want despite how old you are.

 

[markofhavoc]

Man when I get older, I won't give a fuck what young people think

 

[disappeared]

76½

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I like to show sack sometimes. NBD.

 

[Ralemont]

Depends how good they look.

 

[Strangelove77]

When you see it you'll know.

I guess.

So, you'll be that old man walking around naked in the gym lockers?

76½

Don't think i remember seeing anyone that old showing skin.

lol

Depends how good they look.

That's the odd part, i find i notice it even more if they take care of themselves...

When you see it you'll know.

WHAT!!?

 

[liliththepale]

I don't know but I hope you're alone in that. Old people have just as much right to expose their skin as anyone else.

 

[Valhelm]

all adults over 45 should be made to wear full HAZMAT suits so the rest of us don't have to see their hideous, decrepit bodies

 

[Reptars Revenge]

Watch the first episode of game of thrones this season to find your answer.

 

[ugly]

There is not an age, no. There is no reason to be alive. Enjoy it!

 

[UraMallas]

Fuck. No chill.

 

[ugly]

It's true!

 

[chrisPjelly]

Skeleton

 

[FO-totality]

Nope, just whatever age you happen to be when the Skeleton War starts, but you won't need or have skin then.

 

[Prodigal Son]

No.

Wear whatever you want no matter how old you are.

Once you're comfortable.

 

[norm9]

Old people should cover up in a burka. Or not because this is America.

 

[CharminUltra]

No shirtless Iggy Pop pic yet? For shame, GAF!

 

[Opto]

100. Then you buy the full body latex suit

 

[ThisGuy]

If you look good show it. If you don't, show it anyways. I still wanna see.

 

[Subpar Spatula]

Like, I get it, where what you like and all but sometimes you gotta understand you look bad and need to rethink your approach.

 

[webkatt]

It is kinda like asking at what age should a person start dying their hair.

Depends on the person and if they want/care to do it.

 

[jetjevons]

The day you care what other people think or care is the day you lose control of your own self-confidence.

 

[Finaika]

Depends how good they look.

Pretty much.

 

[kinoki]

Never. Are you just going to stop needing vitamin D?

 

[yongeandcollege]

Never. No one cares about your sensitivities.

 

[The Horror the horror]

No, but there's a weight.

 

[liliththepale]

Like, I get it, where what you like and all but sometimes you gotta understand you look bad and need to rethink your approach.

News flash, not everyone has to be beautiful and attractive to everyone else around them.

 

[Log4Girlz]

You should be able to strut around nude upon hitting retirement age

 

[brianmcdoogle]

Helen Mirren is 70, I guess.

 

[Ralemont]

News flash, not everyone has to be beautiful and attractive to everyone else around them.

No, but they probably should be if they're going to wear revealing clothing. They can wear whatever they want, and others can find they look disgusting for doing so. I don't know where "rights" come into this unless someone is suggesting legislative action.

 

[liliththepale]

This behavior is far more disgusting than old people revealing their skin, I'll tell you what.

 

[hodayathink]

No, but they probably should be if they're going to wear revealing clothing. They can wear whatever they want, and others can find they look disgusting for doing so. I don't know where "rights" come into this unless someone is suggesting legislative action.

But people are under no obligation to give a shit about how anyone else thinks they look. If I don't care that you think I look disgusting, then I don't need to rethink anything.

 

[jb1234]

Yes, you have issues. Get over them. Older people aren't obligated to cover up their bodies for your comfort.

 

[Ralemont]

But people are under no obligation to give a shit about how anyone else thinks they look. If I don't care that you think I look disgusting, then I don't need to rethink anything.

Sure. It's not like even if I could I would force people to not wear revealing clothing. They can wear whatever they want to fucking wear. Just like other people are free to find it gross. Amazing how that works.

 

[norm9]

Sorry dude. I doubt an old person cares. And they shouldnt.

 

[Ralemont]

This behavior is far more disgusting than old people revealing their skin, I'll tell you what.

It isn't actually a behavior because it's not an action being expressed. I don't go out seeking old people dressed revealingly and tell them they're gross. This is a thread specifically asking for an opinion. But keep on demanding other people's aesthetics fit yours, I'm sure that's not gross at all.

 

[liliththepale]

This is a thread specifically asking for an opinion. If what you're doing is demanding people don't mind unattractive things, then that is a behavior, and also gross.

Man, don't twist this on me. You specifically said people "probably should" be beautiful and attractive if they're going to go out in revealing clothing.

 

[Ralemont]

Man, don't twist this on me. You specifically said people "probably should" be beautiful and attractive if they're going to go out in revealing clothing.

Okay, so let's clarify what "should" means here. It's not a legal imperative, nor an attempt to institute one. In the same way certain haircuts fit people better, or a certain style might make someone more attractive, revealing clothing looks better on more attractive people. So should here is my recommendation. This is why I originally said "it depends how they look." Some 50-60 year olds look a damn sight better than some 20 year olds. Some don't.

 

[TickleMeElbow]

Yeah, my dad told me that back when he was a kid, wrinkly ass old men would swim totally naked infront of everyone at the YMCA.

Also, when I was living in rural Japan there was this old dude who stood in his yard every morning with his dick out pissing onto his vegetable garden. I'd be walking to school, and be greeted by the sight of his ashy dick on the reg. He'd just say "good morning" in Japanese and keep pissing. Old people don't give a fuck.

 

[MrToughPants]

Nothing more attractive than a XXXXL BBW wearing crotch high spandex booty shorts and just a sports bra.

 

[Jonbo298]

I'm gonna own my flabby man wrinkles. Kids will laugh but they'll realize in time to have fun.

 

[ThisGuy]

...I'll tell you what...

 

[Alex Stroud]

At least make sure it's flattering. The world has enough young muffin tops as it is without old folks joining in.

 

[KingBroly]

It's not really an age. It's how you look.

 

[Killer Queen]

Tru

It's not really an age. It's how you look.

Serious answer is this though.
