Twitter Analyzer Can Determine Your Age By Evaluating Your Tweets

Ageism in social media is a double-edged sword. With Twitter specifically, ageism isn't apparent (at least to me) in the Twitter stream.

Getting Old Sucks: Captain America As An Old Man [8 Pics]

I read this week that "getting old isn't for sissies," and that's so true.

Playboy Bunnies When They Get Older [10 Pics]

The whole aging process is still such a dichotomy to me. On one hand, I feel more confident and strong as I get older, and I wouldn't trade any of my experiences in order to be a teenager again. On the other hand, I curse mother nature every time I stumble across a gray hair or find a new line on my ...

Elderly Mickey Mouse: Redesigned To Show His Age

Unfortunately, for most of us, aging is not something we celebrate. We cling to our youth with all we've got, and we try hard to keep the natural signs of aging from being exposed to the world.

I just love old people. They are so cute and full of wisdom. When I think about all the stories my grandmother told me before she died, it makes me smile.

10 Purchases That Might Indicate A Midlife Crisis

Recently someone I know suddenly sold her house and gave away almost all her possessions. It was such a bizarre move, and to me, seemed very out of character. She is about 50 years old, and when I was telling my friend about it, she said, "It sounds to me like she is having a midlife crisis." I was ...

As a woman, I know firsthand what it's like to feel pressured by society to look a certain way in order to be considered beautiful.

Age. It's one of the last mysteries that us humans haven't yet been able to master or control.
