Women Who Say They "Peaked In High School" Are Sharing Their Pics For The "Glow-Down" Challenge

Can we really peak as early as high school, though? William Klemm, Ph.D., says it certainly shouldn't be that way.

The senior professor of neuroscience says that our culture is far too youth-obsessed. "We are all going to get old, assuming we don't die first," Klemm says.

"Our friends, relatives, and loved ones are or will get old. As baby boomers retire, older people are coming to dominate the population."

"Modern medicine and the wide pursuit of healthier living styles have enabled many older people to live longer and remain vigorous and productive in their old age. Yet in many Western countries, we shun, neglect, and sometimes abuse the old."

In some ways, it makes sense that we fear getting old. We are naturally afraid of becoming lonely and sick.

"Time becomes precious, because it is running out. You therefore spend it more wisely. You don't waste time on harmful emotions or personal animosities," Klemm says.

So, who cares if you were better looking in high school than you are today?

With good health, aging can be a blessing!

So, in a way, these ladies embracing their age on social media is quite a mature and confident thing to do.

You go ladies!
