While you were correct the thing people forget with these types of comparisons is that they would not continue to look like the before images even if they didn't get any work done.
A lot of these women are well past their 20s and while I don't think the result of their work is attractive however in the age of social media (or just regular media) it is better to look like this then to "look old" as a woman.
An old woman who looks her age can command respect, if she's used those years to earn respect. Which is not something any of these trans-mantis women have done.
Old women who look their age can be straight up hot. Tilda Swinton comes to mind.
Many are in their 30s, some in their early 30s even. Most people have the first signs of aging come in their mid-late 30s, laugh lines, first few grey hairs, etc. It depends on the individual but ultimately most people will have minimal visual signs of age in their 30s. This isn't trying to hide aging, this is something else entirely
People are getting "preventive Botox" in their 20s now....
Who are the freaks that are reinforcing this shit?
