Would you be offended if you were an older woman and a guy said to you you have a great body ect for your age? I see alot of older women on here and im amazed at how great of a shape they are in for their ages Sometimes i dont believe them lol. Let me know what the general opinion is |

If I’m being honest, it would be much nicer just to hear “you have a great body” without what can feel like a caveat being added to the sentance. That’s just my two cents though, and I’m sure plenty of ladies wouldn’t even give it a second thought. |

Surely the fact there are many women with fantastic bodies at different age ranges means we should start challenging the ageist myths?
And how old is old?
And all bodies are fantastic really, just some you find attractive and some you don’t (but we all have our different attraction sparkers, so it’s not a one-size-fits-all topic) |

Not trying to offend anyone here just trying to gain insight into how a womams mind works |

Then as stated above, give the compliment without the addendum that could be interpreted in positive or negative ways. |

I have a better shape and body in my forties than I ever had in my twenties. Unfortunately it took me decades to do something about being podgy so I will never know what it would have been like to be slimmer before gravity took hold. Rightly or wrongly, anyone saying I have a good body 'for my age' would piss me off slightly since it reminds me what I should have done years ago, with the benefit of hindsight. |

"I did compliment a woman on ber great shape in the gym awhile ago,her reply was "thanks,and im 53""
And she’s every right to want to own that. The age part wasn’t applied to her by someone else. |

Not entirely sure that’s true
My physique now (35) is spectacularly better than it was at 20. There are loads of people society may consider ‘old’ who have much more aesthetically pleasing physiques than a lot of people in there 20s.
I’d suggest your views (not yours personally, but everyones) on what is ‘old’ and ‘a fantastic/awful physique is largely down to what media you surround yourself/are surrounded by.
A twenty something lad who follows fitness addicts/models on instagram would have a different perception of fantastic than, say, a 40 something gym-going strong man competitor, or a 60 something marathon runner who doesn’t use the internet or read women’s magazines.
There must also be a difference between genders and what each perceives as a fantastic physique.
Plus, on an individual level. I may find a person to have what I’d consider an attractive body, yet another 35 year old married mum of two with the same level of education, similar social standing and location may think he/she is a minger!

I'm not sure that's true, in my 20s I was too busy enjoying life to worry about keeping in shape and healthy, I'm trimmer and fitter now than I've ever been. And I anticipate as little un gets older and less dependant I'll have more time to exercise so even if biologically it's harder life as you get older can make it easier to work on.
If you add "for your age " to any compliment you may as well not have bothered in the first place. |

Yes, agree with this 100 %. It's a very subjective opinion (the ops)... And actually, did you know that the older you get the easier it is to gain muscle mass.. Fact. Google will back me up |

I’d agree!
Mine’s ok - but I’m friends with tigerlillycub - and she has an amazing body for a woman of ANY age! Most women in their twenties would envy her!
I DO know what people mean when they say it and I don’t have a problem with it! My body was ‘perfect ‘ in my early twenties pre-kids - but now I’ve got mummy jelly belly (large babies), squidgy tits due to breastfeeding, and around 50 000 thread veins due to carrying heavy babies and shit circulation - ergo I’ll take ‘for my age’ as a compliment (ish) as I know what they’re trying to say! |

For my age and for having 3 kids lol.
Any compliment is appreciated. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I know I won’t be to everyone’s taste.
I don’t mind giving compliments either. I’m sure guys appreciate them too. Nice eyes and a great smile are always complimented. |

If anyone says I have a great body, I just accept the compliment, people don't say you have a good body for your age, so why make anything of it? Take the compliment, smile and say thanks x |

I was much slimmer in my 20's but didn't have the confidence and I also didn't have tits hip or ass - ok those things came with a belly too lol but I get more (positive) attention now than I did then.
Biologically speaking 'mum bods' are more attractive supposedly.
Boobs, hips and bum all signify fertility which is the aim of the sex drive |

Age is but a number...
Class is timeless...
And beauty is subjective...
I'm not quite sure how one perceives another person to be good for their age OP
You either are attracted or your not....
But then I'm just an old guy...
Maybe I've got it wrong... |

If you think someone has an amazing body just tell them if that's the kind of compliment you think they like. Adding , 'For your age' ........ why ?
Adding, 'For your age' suggests that bodies deteriorate, go past their sell by date, are no longer attractive after mid twenties or for women , following menopause.
Too many men ( and women for that matter ) are hung up on what their body looks like;how firm it is; if it matches media expectations.
What you SHOULD be looking at - is the whole package. There must be many a firm bodied woman between 20 and 30 without much experience and even less confidence and sexual abandon, who remove their clothes and are cowering inside.
Give me mature bodies with mature minds inside them, with wobbly bellies and bums, and stretch marks that say , 'Yeah i've had kids,' With smiles and laughs that say , 'I'm relaxed in your company.' With confidence that shines out of their glossy lips and nails and gives you a slice of reality.
Fantasy bodies belong on celluloid. Come to think of it ..... all those immature botoxed , fish lipped , jelly boobed, peeps can't have been very happy with what they had any old hoooo ..... regardless of age. |

Age is just a number. If someone is hot then age shouldn't have much to do with it |

"Surely the fact there are many women with fantastic bodies at different age ranges means we should start challenging the ageist myths?
And how old is old?
And all bodies are fantastic really, just some you find attractive and some you don’t (but we all have our different attraction sparkers, so it’s not a one-size-fits-all topic) i agree all bodies are fantastic but as we get older it becomes harder to maintain the physique you had when you were 20 if you know what i mean? Not trying to offend anyone here just trying to gain insight into how a womams mind works "
What about those whose physique is much better now than when they were in their 20s or 30s? |

It's pretty much impossible to offend me. I remember someone stroking my arm and elbow and saying "You have really soft skin....for an old woman". It made me laugh. |

"You've all made interesting points, considering your ages.
What do you think Jim? "
If you think someone looks good, regardless of gender, OP. Tell 'em they look good. Fancy a fuck? |

"Some are just looking for an insult....
why not look at it as a compliment and be happy they bothered to try and express it rather than suppress it.
"
Because they need something to feel insulted about. Or they are touchy about their age and looks. |

If you say "You have a wonderful body" or "You look good" - then that is a compliment, thank you very much!
If you add "for your age" then that changes it into a pretty big insult and an immediate turn-off.....
I would have expected that a little thought would have told you that...!

But they’re allowed to be all of these things. And it answers the OP’s question to hear that some do find if offensive.
I personally wouldn’t mind as I don’t feel touchy about my age. Ask me when I’m older and I might though. |

See now everyone is bashing me but i know from experience as you get older its harder to stay in shape. You ache more you get injured easier you fatigue easier ect. Dont tell me age is just a number because its not as you get older
Your body deteriorates its caused by oxygen essentially. But im not saying anyone cannot be attractive at any age im just being real. So if an older woman is in excellent shape i think its great. And by older i mean 40 plus. And dont get it twisted that im saying 40 is old because its not but 40 is older than 20 |

I know what you mean, and don’t entirely agree but I agree enough to proffer my advice to your query — and you sought a general response from women and I’d say generally you’re best off following the advice of the second poster — compliment but perhaps don’t add the age comment. |

"Do people get offended if they’re told they don’t look their age but look younger?"
When I was younger it would annoy me. But at 43,I've now been told I look about 37/38 which is always good. |

"Do people get offended if they’re told they don’t look their age but look younger?"
I don't. I think the look good for your age compliment is open to interpretation. It could mean you look great but you wouldn't if you were ten years younger or it could mean that you look so good that they can't believe you're the age you claim to be.
I think that as its usually meant as a compliment anyone receiving it should accept it as such. However I would still prefer a person to just say "you look good" |

I can imagine some might.
I find it annoying when I get people telling me I’m not my age because they think I look younger. I get annoyed when they do it in that way that’s actually accusing me of lying, like when people tell me I can’t be shy because I have naked pics up. I’m kinda “right, you’re essentially starting an interaction by telling me you don’t believe me or you won’t listen to me, not really going to go well from there...” |

You can see the difference between the two though, right? Like, saying someone doesn't look their age and saying someone has a good body for the age are two different things. |

I wouldn't necessarily say that those who take issue with it have body confidence/age sensitivity issues.
When someone says to me "you're attractive for a fat girl", I take issue because I feel that person should realise it's a bit of a dick thing to say. |

I was very fit & sporty on my 20s, health issues on my 30s saw a massive weight gain.
Now in my 40s,I'm fitter & healthier than I've ever been.
Being told I look good, is a nice compliment, but I don't see my age as an important factor.
What does amuse me though, is messages saying things like "no way your 47"
I mean why would I actually lie about my age & make myself older? |
