The article asks: Can aging stop women from wearing leggings? First answer: Absolutely not! Age is no barrier to wearing leggings. It's all about how you style them. Second answer: I think you can wear leggings until you are 100 yrs old. It depends what you pair it with.
I bet there are more answers - and likely similar. Good thing I am not the one answering the questions. There's a fraternity of social indulgence. You look fine. Really.
Maybe the question of leggings is better than who is the oldest body builder in the Guinness Book of Records. There are two - male and female -showing their muscles in their skimpy bathing suits. I had thought the bathing suits and muscles pictures were unpleasant with younger people and here we are faced with Ernestine and Jim smiling away with bulging arms and legs.
This is Ernestine: “I really don’t need an alarm clock to awaken me. I wake up at 2:30 every morning. I get up. I say my devotions. Then I’ll eat. I will eat ten egg whites. They’re scrambled, sixteen ounces of water, and a handful of walnuts. I have a certain song that I sing every morning...‘Oh I can’t sit down. Got to keep on rolling…Today I am happy and free…Nothing in the world is troubling me'.” So begins the day for the now 85-year-old Ernestine Shepherd, the world's oldest female bodybuilder. She was named six-pack granny at the time.
Ernestine looks young - really young. Is she a SuperAger body builder? Or more likely these are pictures from 15 to 20 years ago when she held the record in 2010 and 2011 in her 60s.There are articles all through her career, so I expect they are using the ones from her favourite time period. I I guess that as pictures of other younger female body builders look their age. And then our male bodybuilder Jim seems more real as he is over 90. But then being more real over 90 isn't that pleasant to look at. And there's a picture where he doesn't even have the weird bathing suit on. That story concludes with "Every body is perfect."
So I won't check out the headlines on the world's oldest bodybuilder - Manohar Aich - at 104 in 2016.
Whether to wear leggings or not? Ernestine and Jim have already answered. No need to wear leggings at all. Come as you are.
I think our perceptions are like this picture of rain on the windshield in front of the Food Basics. Pretty colours and patterns,. Don't use the windshield wipers and see what's really there.
