I get discriminated against all the time because people think I'm 18 when in fact I'm 36. When I walk down the street with a lover of 38 they think she's a youth molester. Ageism sucks.
As you get older you get more aware of the youth people and the harm they can do to you ie the older generation, youth people move so fast and act so weird,,,,
I am 22 years old find working stressful enough, also I embrace aging it is a good part of life, it isn't bad, it is good because why would you want to live forever, you people who do enjoy working for the rest of your days paying bills etc and even if you do retire young you will get bored my dad retired young owns the fastest most exotic toys like fast cars and he gets depressed and decided to work again and hates that too. You people who want to live forever are nuts, enjoy'
Why can't people just grow old gracefully it is the way of life. I am 22 years old find working stressful enough, just existing is stressful enough and if you didn't have a job like my dad who retired young get depressed even when you own the coolest things like the fastest cars Ferrari etc. I mean I embrace aging I want to get old and gray because I do want to die one day, living forever I would lose my mind literally lose my mind!!! Have my perspective on life and you will do fine!
Ageism is something most of us will have to deal with from both sides old people were once young people and i'm sure they had to deal with ageism against young people too at one point in their lives.Ageism is different from any other form of discrimination in the sense that you will see it from both sides from the young side when you are young and from the old side when you are old.
Ageism is wrong in all it's forms. Old people get discriminated, young people get discriminated, everyone gets discriminated, it cannot be put down to one side all of the time. Everything, or nearly everything within this world has a good and dark side to it, including every generation that has, or will exist. Do not judge people for how long they have existed, but for who they are. You are born, you are young and you are old, this is life.
I live in a "popular" town in America that must be the age bashing capital of the world. They even publish a local free news paper that does it in practically every issue. We are living in a time where the Opedious complex is the "norm" and the media is plowing that into everyone's conciouness.
many young people are subject to ageism through the supression of their oppinions and the media stereotyping them as violent, incoherent and disrespectful...
if i walk down the street with about 5 of my friends, people stare at us like we're going to commit a crime!
@storm0fnova One day the legal drinking age, marriage age, voting age, full time job age, or driving age will be lowered down to 14+ instead of 21+ 18+ or 16+ when people stop being so ignorant and ageist against teenagers in the future.
as long as only teens are considered adults and as persons too, why should that matter?
teenagers always looked more like adults than kids to me and it is ageist that I'm not allowed to get married to a 16 year old just because I'm 22.
@Joanthecutey technically lowering it doesn't make it not ageist, it only makes it ageist towards less people, there should not be an age restriction on anything, because of two reasons:
1. defining age by a number of years is inaccurate, maturity and capability are acquired through time, but at different rates, a 15 yro can be more mature physically and mentally than a 21 yro but the 21 yro is legal to drink alcohol
2. time is constant, not chronological as in i am 20, i was 20 and i will be 20
if what you mean by seen, is people paying no attention to them? great! that's better than a load of sensationalist propaganda perpetuated day in, day out by the news and current affairs programs...
there even trialling this device that emits a 22000Hz ringing noise in australia, saying that it'll be able to break up crowds of teenagers at the authorities' discretion... i mean, c'mon! that's the sort of thing they'd be using in iraq!
who the fuck are you to say old people have it bad?
Even though I was kind of a nerd when I was a teen, some old people and adults still tried to find ways to make me look bad. And they asked me disrespectful questions like if I smoked, or went to partys.

Ageism is unfortuantely the biggest issue in the US (Europe sadly acknowledges traditions better, and I live with a liberal president who some call "post-American", and our Popular Music really stinks!
Easy to laugh,I guess that's the privilege of youth. Unlike other types of discrimination - all of which are abhorrent - we will all suffer ageism. You,me and everyone.
My advice is take advantage of your youth as you will very quickly be past your useful economic lives in the eyes of most employers (35 years in many occupations). I hope you earn enough in your 10-15 years of employment.
i am working on ageism now in class and i find this is really true. why are people constantly stereotyping and abusing the elderly? do they find them not worthy in the society? think. even you as an adult, will grow old one day, would you wish to receive the same treatment as the elderly now?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Yeah, there's some pretty cool old people, very few but still, some. Way more cool old people than cool gay people. Some old guys use to be badass marines and shit like that and I know some fucking hot old chicks I'd still love to fuck.
@MassZombicide Plenty of cool old people, you don't sound cool when you say things like "I know some fucking hot old chicks I'd still love to fuck" though, but rather retarded.
if your fit and healthy enough for a certain job then age should not count thats wot i think anyway

It's like black people and white people
or men and women
white people and women would be more like the old people because they are the more snobby ones.
black people and men would be more like young people because they are always the ones being looked down apon and classed as low.
ageisms against teenagers, racisms against black people and sexisms against men more than vice versa.

@FormulaOneFan4Eva So true,
which is why I'm glad not to be young any more.

even though I looked nothing like the type.

Old age is still viewed by many as less important! and less productive, surely
less appealing physically or attractive?
yes old age has many stereotypes and realities
we must address.
