How old or at what age does someone get to be considered an oldy?

[Baluug]

I think for women,27 is the oldy age,because that's the age that they inexplicably stop at.It's like they never get any older!!Ask any somali woman who is visibly older than,say,40,her age.She'll say,"I'm 27."

Soomaalidii hore nidaam ayaa u daganaa, oo dadka kala saari jiray da' ahaan, sidee aqoonta dadka u kala duwantahay ayee da'da dadka u kala saari jireen.

 

Inkastoo maanta badanaa Soomaalida isku qaldaan ereyada da'da loogu waco, ereyada iyo waqtigee u taagan yihiin waa kala duwan yihiin. Hadaadan qaldamin, saan ayaa moodaa:

 

• Dhalad (ama cunug) {cunuga maalintuu dhasho ilaa hal sano}
• Nuune (1 ilaa 5 jir}
• Ciyaal (ama yaryaruurac) {5-9 jir}
• Barbaar {9-14 years}
• Qaangaar {14-18 jir}
• Dhalinyaro {18-35 jir}
• Joobano {35-45 jir}
• Duq {45-55 jir}
• Odey {55-65 jir}
• Waayeel{65+ jir}

Dadka aan da'dooda ka muuqan, siiba nimanka, waxaa la dhihi jiray: Cuti, Curi iyo Coon.

Hibo,

 

Maybe they didnt use make up, but our people have been using things like sandal wood,..... to beautify and clear their skins. Khol is make up, but also called a medicine for the eye. :confused:

Hibo, that's hard to believe. From a preliminary search, I found, once her implants drifted so far apart, she underwent a surgery to fix it. It's not nanotech science to deduce someone at that age, with that appearance, has had some corrections to appear so. Someone before said; nothing is what seems. And there's an Arabic proverb that goes like; not everything that shines is silver (gold?).

I recken You feel as You are regardless of Your current age, i.e......if You take good care of your health being, physically fit and emotionally happy within your current life status should hold the key, in tune with ur over all well being meaning what U are being capable of...then all should be merry merry.

Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.

PS live life to the fullist.....since its too short to count age and its factors

[Animal Farm]

Like WOL said prepare for the after life, where you will not age, just imagine – or just get plastic surgery, face lifts, see a psychiatrist, get laid, laugh a lot, cry a little, work less, sleep more. That's the way

[Iffah]

I used to think anyone over 35 to be old...but I reconsidered that after I turned 20. Then I concluded anyone 50+ was old, but I didn't like my uncle jokingly calling my dad old at only 54, so once again, I moved up the age, now anyone 65+ is old in my book.

 

But it's a different story where I work. Apparently 65 isn't that old after all ... it's just anyone that's over 70 and unable to do their own care that's labelled old.
