I'm just going to freak out if I don't get the right answers to this question. who get's Older first...Man OR The Women, now I'm getting very much confuse cause my girl friend argued with me that men gets older faster and die first, but I just can't believe that because I read that women mature faster than men and also acquire grey hair and winkles faster than men do, further more, is it true that a 60 years old man has much higher chances to die than a 60 years old woman??.

women gets old faster than men..biologically speaking maybe because of the estrogens.. I don't know the best explanation there...all I know is that women really gets old fast like physically..

Women mature earlier, it's fact but by the time women and men maturity stacked up.
Huh..man older faster? ;D I think it's not true, because to our body the bigges influence make environment and life style, so if you eat fast food and live stresful, of cours you die first.

That I think totally depends on the person. I am 60....I don't look or act it..but alot of men my age are already couch potatoes and I am feeling like I am just getting started! I am enjoying life much more....more relaxed etc. But still it just depends on the person and how they take care of themselves.

There is no definite answer to that, some women look older than men of their age, while some men look older than woman of their age. There is no standardize gauges to measure how a man or woman should look at certain age, like the number of line of wrinkle one should has at 40 years old or 100 years old, layer of dry skin, and etc.. that make the comparison very difficult. A 30 years old woman may look young compare to her 30 years old aging looking husband, but she may look old compare to a youthful looking 30 years old bachelor. So it is hard to conclude.

That is right, Sid! Since there is no world/fixed standard stating how a 20 years old, 30, 40 or 50 is supposed to look for either sexes, so it is impossible to compare which gender look older or younger between both sexes. I can look younger to people when compare to my former female classmate my age who appear old with wrinkle on her face at 30, but may look older to another one who still remain her youthful look of high school appearance due to better skin care or genetic. It is just hard to come a definitive conclusion.

I think men and women are just the same when getting older.It only depends on how we take care of our selves.Men and women may looks younger if we know how to care ourselves.Age doesn't matter,if we really like to look younger yes we can.There are many tips to do in maintaining good looks.

In my own observation,its yes....Women get older faster than men coz women had all their thinking with regads to family.It is the women who give extra attention to their family ,give much care and more works compared to men.So women get old faster than men........

I'm not sure about the women aging faster than men part, but, I do know that men usually die earlier than women. Why do you think there are so many widows, and not widowers? There are far more old ladies on the planet than old men. So, my conclusion is, that women may age faster, but men die sooner.

I think aging has to do with hereditary and the lifestyle though I think women tends to get older faster than men mostly due to effect of too much chemicals in the beauty products. On the other hand, I think more men die wmuch younger compared to women due to risky vices and nature of their work.

I believe in people saying that the women quite fast older than men. A good example is a same age of a guy and girl get married. After a few you can found that girl is older than the guy. Might be her face become older without make-up. Don't think that i lying here, but this is entire truth.
I agree that might be men are die first but women is become older than men. This is the unpredictable truth i think, believe it.

Keep in mind that there are exceptions, not everyone is the same but MOSTLY girls tend to live few years longer than men and also the "look more aged" thing could be because they devastate their faces with tons of makeup.

From what I know, a woman gets older faster than a man. Because, a man have more collagen in the face, that's why a man face more oily than women. And for who die first, I think It's not depend on gender. In science, it's depend on how you can maintain your health. But, on religion it's about the destiny that you got from the God.
