What age do people look there best?

and what age do looks start to decline? Or is it different for everyone? For example what age do girls think that guys look there best and vica versa? I don't mean exact age but I would say in general girls look best at age 18 - 22 and start to decline looks wise age 27. I don't know, what do you think:confused: When is the peak age in terms of looks?

I guess the decreasing gradient of the curve is controled by diet, exercise and other factors.

I think most men improve with age.
Women are better between 20-30, but it all depends on different things...
18-33 ish
This has to win the 'most depressing thread' prize, I think.

I think for both men and women it's generally considered to be the early 20's
Guys are said by some get become more handsome as they get older.

Different people peak at different times. For example Britney Spears probably peaked in her late teens, early twenties, but Uma Thurman is probably at her peak now, at around 40.

Lads - 24
Ladies - 19

I have the sort of bone-structure that is apt to render me rather attractive come fifty, albeit in a 'Bill Nighy' sort of way.
I looked my best at 17-18 without a doubt
Females - I'd say early 20s is pretty accurate.

Males - About 25 is ideal for the "OMG, he's so hawt! ", and I feel that they develop a separate sort of
charm up/charisma to the 40s - eg. Pierce Brosnan and George Clooney.

So for us guys, we don't need be worried !
I disagree, would say that most Western girls look good btw 18-25...

but Asian women tend to look their best 25-30 :biggrin: :biggrin:

Are you asian? I think most women look best in there early 30's. It depends on the woman though, some look really young for their age and others look older.

Yeah... that's true too.

Horrorboy you do ask the weirdest questions! I remember, oh don't worry. Well there was the panda one but we won't go there :wink:

Sorta, mixed race with Asian - definitely. I guess the reason why I posted that comment was because my dad loves Asians (he's half himself) and always goes for them :p:

So it's prolly my upbringing, meh.
