Do you enjoy "What do they look like now?" articles?

To be honest, I have never been a fan of his...even in his early days or prime years.  Just never really did much for me.  Could easily turn him away if he wanted to hop in bed with me.  Brad Pitt, on the other hand, has always been a looker in my eyes.  Certainly would not send him away from my bed.  Might handcuff him to it instead.  lol.

I've never been into bondage, although I'm a huge fan of Logan Lerman's and relished seeing him tied up naked for most of the movie Oh, Hi!

I don't have a 2025 pic, but here's what he looked like in early 2023, when he was 59:

Yeah, I guess I'd pay for that, too!

Though I really creamed my pants when I saw him for the first time in Thelma and Louise...

I show Thai friends pictures of my teenage years and get the comment "Oh I'm sorry. What happened?"

That reminds me of the photo my husband has of me on his dresser--I was in my 20s! 😯 Sometimes he shows the photo some of his friends, who sometimes gasp "Oh, my God!" as if I'd turned into an ogre. 😄

At least I can take a consolation by having a sister who more or less looks the same like 40 years ago. Calendar is gentle for some people but "some" is key word here.

Looks a lot better in second pic!

I have never shown any of my Thai 'friends' photos of myself when I as young - or any photos of my personal life for that matter.

When I was young, I was actually quite cute - I had the 'kawaii' face that Japanese loved! I got a lot of attention, from both sexes. I shamelessly took advantage of it.

But my looks faded to the point that by the time I reached my mid -30s, I didn't attract and special attention.

Sadly, it has been downhill since then. 😢😢😢

To be the contrarian to the thread, when I attended a screening of Tab Hunter Confidential, he appeared on stage afterwards for the Q&A. At the time he had reached 80 and still looked quite trim and still handsome.

I hope to keep it all together as I age, like Tab Hunter did.  Of course he was born with good looks and he lived right.  Some things we control and some things are just fate and genetics.

 

To the OP, frankly I don't appreciate these before/after articles.  They're one more version of Internet click bate without much of a redeeming message.

No, I do not enjoy. What is the point of posting that photo of an ageing Shirley Maclaine? There is no point in a gay Board! I agree with @Pete1111. Clickbait! Unless you want to have sex with an older guy what is the point of a thread like this other than some weird form of personal jollification. Some peole age well; others don't. An example of the latter was posted some months ago. Bjorn Andresen was named "the most beautiful boy in the world" when he appeared as Tazio in Visconti's 1971 movie Death in Venice. Some years before his death he looked very different.

What is wrong with either photo? They reveal a real person.
