    I would also like to point out the double standard. While this is a fine… I mean freaking fiiiiiine picture.

    To the point the dumb shit was trying to make, there is a picture of Pierce Brosnan on a beach with a giant gut. Don’t see the dude posting that kind of shit.

      It’s not this tweet, but I have seen people try shaming Brosnan over that.

      There are unhealthy beauty standards set to both genders. They’re just geared differently. Women are suppose to be prizes and men are suppose to be warriors. Tate is the result of decades of masculine marketing and the exact thing the movie Fight Club warned about.

      Look at what they did to Luke Skywalker toys over time.

        And the real tell is that the warrior ideal combined with super broad chest and shoulders are meant to denote strength, but the strongest men tend to be thick through the middle and lack the bodybuilder v-taper they give these toys. Not that bodybuilders aren’t stronger than most people by far, but when you look at the people who hold records for lifting the most weight they’re nothing like those toys. It’s just as shallow and dumb as a lot of women’s beauty standards.

      I think it’s even worse than the double standard. Saying that people shouldn’t get married because some decades later your spouse might not be hot is infuriating to me. You’re with someone for decades - if the only reason you’re with them is because they were smoking hot at 25, you’re immensely shallow and immature. People get old. Age happens.

    They both look incredible for their age

    Incel manosphere culture is partially a result of many closeted bisexual and gay men having to succeed under conservatism

    Same guy probably complains about his near certainty of dying alone as well.

    I bet you she looks as beautiful to him now as she did then if not more so. What with having kids, my wife’s body has changed over the years and I found her gorgeous in every stage.

      Keep them only caged enough to be socially acceptable, i say.

      Women’s bodies have been policed for too long.

    I might be wrong but so many times I hear people talk about how big breast are desirable, how a big ass is desirable, how curves are great.

    And then seemingly the same idiot look at women like that and talk shit… I am wondering if it is cope because they are jealous because everything else is insane.

      They’ve both put on a bit of weight over the years but only one gets criticised here.

      I’m sure he appreciates the bigger fun bags as a bonus. And after 25 years of marriage I don’t think either of them is staying for the other’s body anyway.

      My theory is that men who agree with this post can’t find any woman to marry them and this is just a way of them consoling their fragile ego.

    Oh man, what would I ever do if I met someone who I enjoyed spending time with so much that 25 years in I still wanted them living in the same house I do and going to special events with me? I might fuck around and find out I’ve become happy.

    I’m more attracted to faces. If my wife still has as beautiful face wise as Brosnan’s wife, I’d be the luckiest man.
