how come adults don’t look as ‘mature’ as they used to? I’m told it’s ‘neoteny’ but that answers nothing.

As a millennial, I recognize that us 90’s kids just look like very tall teenagers, where as people our age back 30 to 40 years ago actually LOOKED like they were in their 20’s. Why is this?

Crazy test. Google some of the people you didn’t know well in high school.

I recently did this and was honestly shocked at how old they looked. I have a vague memory of what they looked like in high school. I don’t think I look old, I don’t think the people I’ve remained acquaintances look that much different to when they were in high school.

I did this after running across a comedian that grew up really close to my husband and is the same age as my husband. And he was joking about being middle aged.
