Over 50's we are taught to be old

[dancingreenwoman]

love it! Nice to find you!

[Hannible100]

Women over 50 normaly aint interested in sex all they want to do is see the grandkids an fuck about flower arranging! They are past it if you want to fuck one you better take some lub with you ha ha

[MsStarryN]

great attitude! thank you.

[donwalk23]

Beautiful

[seroquel25mgsaday]

you look better than most women any age.

[GQbum]

you r so right. that's the way i've always thought.

[tomwshere]

you look good for your age deff a gilf

[PullMyPoppy]

I have created two videos for a competition which ecapsulates what you have said... age is, indeed, just a number. Please view the videos on my channel to support the thought! :)

[LoveofTHor]

your right, older women are more attractive too...so for the love of god please show your breasts in your next video...

[tbear4pa]

All of us boomers can really attest to that.

[KelliGrrrl]

You are my hero Donna Marie! Your fitness level is my goal. I agree, besides isn't 50 the new 30???? Isn't that a better fit?

[1224barbara]

Donna, I'm 59, have gained 8-9 pounds since my teens (3 children) and I'm in process of losing those pounds. I am just dying to learn how to rollerblade. I have skates sitting in my closet for the last10 years but, unfortunately, I never get over the fear of falling. I bike, race walk, hike and and very active, but I love the grace and beauty of the online skater. Do you give private lessons? I'm in Boca Raton

[ArtsAlign]

In fact, now is when I am feeling the urge to have a child, now that I've acquired wisdom. I've never listened to societal (suicidal) standards and follow my own drum. I'll be 50 in November and never felt better. Yoga!

[ArtsAlign]

I love you. We ARE the generation to break the old age myth! More, please! I've been eating raw (living) foods and my body is loving it!

[hebaelnaggar1]

you are just fabulous ....i'm big fan

[torrents4u2c]

People in their 20's & 30's are in the period that they are the most attractive physically. Of course people can be attractive at any age. I was very nice looking 40 years ago but I didn't know it. My niece once said that I used to be handsome, what happened? I got old. Yes I still feel like that young man but mentally but all I have to do is look in a mirror to see the truth. It's not so bad. My wife of 44 yrs. says I still look good and that's all the counts with me. She looks good too.

[elite1960]

I'm 51 and and am glad I found this video. Like you I don't feel like in in my 50's.

[TECHNOFREAK1023]

Why as woman who are 50 being told that our time is over as far as potential partner in the dating market. I am being told often that because of my age I serve no useful purpose to a potential partner that young girls are being chosen as the preferred choice as a partner. How insulting is the backward way of thinking. I bring so much to the table: educated, still beautiful, passionate, intelligent, and very understanding....so why am I being told I have nothing to offer.

[bloozedaddy]

her "arms look saggy" ????? a u drunk d2dmoore ? LOL

[Alohalakay]

noo you're still young look at your arms? if a woman can wear short sleeves without fear ...she is young .-

[skaha77]

Just exercise 5 times a week for 45 minutes. Hit the weight room 3 times for best results. THEN don't watch t.v. and DO listen to good music. All that from a man 65 who is fit... Singing when you are stuck in traffic works good too. laugh every day. that does wonders as well. - Don' worry Be Happy

[notsocreativegrl]

That makes a lot of sense! I feel like these days people are just living longer off pills and medications, and not really taking advantage of having a higher quality of life. I think people expect to be "old" because not everyone is very health-conscious or fit, and they don't expect to put in the work to maintain their health in order to be "hot" or full of vitality long-term. Anyways, you look great for any age. :)

[menderfire9]

You are so right on about this age thing! Except for one thing, towards the end of the video you said this is a totally new mindset" well, I am happy to tell you some of us started this new mindset in the late 1960's with the help of great books like "Our Bodies, Our Selves" (remember that one?) and we lived outside the "box." We didn't do doctors, medicines or gyms, we did fresh (often raw) organic food, running, walking, climbing outdoors, tending gardens. Now we are vital & sassy at age 70!

[panhandlingtolerated]

smoking hot. wow.

[inilledra]

You look good for your age, means the person paying you the compliment finds you to be attractive even though younger than you are. Maybe by 10-20 yrs. So, take it for what it is worth and enjoy the attention.

[d2dmoore]

I think you look good but your arms are sagging and it gives your age away. I think once your arms are toned you would look much younger.

[Abdulla679]

Thank you for your great video i am 57 and i am a beginner in skating and after i looked your video really you give me a great push forward thank you so much.

[selitten]

would love to have you be my lady. a guy would be lucky to have you. your very sexy.

[VUPdingCLICK]

everyone-especially women are brainwashed into worrying about aging-and do i look good?do i fit in?-and a whole bunch of other stuff designed to keep your head full-at all times-so as all the REAL things,the GOOD things in life pass you by......

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@VUPdingCLICK I couldn't agree with you more.There’s an old saying, If I only knew then what I know now, that fits what you are saying. But it doesn't mean that it is too late. It just means that we know better now and can be whoever we want to be without allowing someone to help us feel bad about ourselves.So it is time to be yourself and don't be afraid to flip the bird to those who sit in their rocking chairs passing judgment on the world that passes them by.

[MrJohnboy006]

@VUPdingCLICK I see the opposite women dont take time to take care of themselves and are increasingly overweight and dont look good or heathy in their 50's.

[uncledonny100]

Your welcome , your a beughtifull woman , and bet you will lok just as great 10 yrs from now

[uncledonny100]

I admire mature women who are in good shape, i,m 64 and can out walk most 20 year olds, I walk 7 miles daily, why??? just because I can, I don,t drink or smoke, and have a 32 inch waist , I feel great

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@uncledonny100 Now that is impressive! I hope that I can say the same 10 years from now. Thanks for inspiring me today :-) !!!!

[cymbeli]

@uncledonny100 But they can probably out JOG you any day

[sjeanp56]

Thank you for this video. This is so true that we are trained to have the "old age" mindset. You have heard that you are as old as you feel. You do not have to get "old" before your time! Thanks!

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@sjeanp56 I don't plan on getting old at all! :-) I remember my grandmother telling me when she was in her late 70's that her body felt old but her mind still felt like she was 30. I believe that your body reacts to the brain and the heart. If you take care of yourself, and you feel young, you will stay young. So enjoy life at every age. Donna

[michaelm742]

Hi Donna, I'll bet you were quite pretty in your 20's and 30's.........

You became beautiful later :)

Michael

[TheClassicQ]

I liked 32 so much i decided to stay there.

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@TheClassicQ Yeah, me too! thanks for the chuckle. Donna

[wepimpha]

i would totally make love to you and im 40

[kiribula]

@wepimpha I don't think everyone needs to know that ?

[wepimpha]

@kiribula why whats the hindrance whos it disturbing.

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@wepimpha The next generation and the one after that and so on. if we are taught to feel old at a certain age, we will most likely talk ourselves into feeling old even though there is nothing wrong with us. I believe it has been a slow and steady brainwashing that parents and grandparents are unaware of doing. I just don't want to do it with my kids. I want them to decide when they are old, not because they were taught to dim the lights at a specified age.

[xraycat30]

The "for your age" nonsense is for the dust pan of history. Women are beautiful througout their lives and I think western society has finally recognized that women are always beautiful whether they're 20 or 80. It's so ridiculous for women to feel unsexy at any age and youth truly lasts as long as we refuse to become old. In many ways, I'm told to feel old as a 33 year old guy but I think whether attitudes change or not, truth lies in how people live and Donna...you are very sexy for any age!

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@xraycat30 You are obviously a man who loves women and I applaud you for that. And you are absolutely right about the western culture. It is changing and it is about time too. Thanks for the compliment. Donna

[kiribula]

@xraycat30 Exactly.

[GetRealFit]

I'll be 60 in January. Check me out! I have felt better in my "older" age than I did when I was young. I'm a fitness expert and a expert martial artist. Thanks for this video!

[jgnatca]

I'm glad you said it. In society and in media, there is no middle ground for mature women. We are to be young and desirable or sedentary grandmas. I have a lot to offer in my fifties that I did not have time for when I was a busy parent building a career. I have discovered, painfully, that I cannot neglect exercise. But what of all the rest that mature women have to offer, such as maturity, perspective, intelligence, and time?

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@jgnatca Unfortunately, those things are too many times taken for granted by others. I can say that easily being a parent of 2 teens! But eventually, and although the hard way, family and friends do come to value women that prove to have and share these virtues that come with age. We can't point them out, we can only demonstrate them which ultimately shows how wise we really are.

Thanks for the comment. Donna

[willintexas]

Very hot "mature" woman.  Quite breathtaking, actually. Kudos.

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@willintexas thanks for making me smile. Donna

[vegascajunqueen]

I am in my 50's also.....And I am glad to see that we don't have to look, feel, act, or dress like we are "old women". Like you I still feel like I am in my 20's. I hope this never changes.

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@vegascajunqueen As you can see from the comments, there are a lot of us out there. We are living longer so we get a chance to live better once the kids are grown. Now it is our turn :-) Keep up the great work! Donna

[jimboFranklin]

sweety you are sexy for any age so hot

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@jimboFranklin Thanks for putting a smile on my face. I intend on staying that way too :-) Donna

[123hoarca]

I'm hopping this video will raise a few question marks for her.

Thank you and keep up the fabulous work you are doing!

P.S. I used more characters than I'm allowed with the first post :)

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@123hoarca Well thank you! I believe in what I teach and i'm having fun doing it. I have had a lot of comments on this video and it is fun finding people, young and older, who feel the same way . Have a great day! Donna

[123hoarca]

Hi Donna,

You are doing a great job and I think you are fantastic for not wanting to get old as growing older. I'll be 30 next year and I feel like I'm still 18, ok maybe 20. You are the best example for everybody who thinks they are old, no matter if they are just over 25 or over 60, 80. etc.

I find your affirmations very educational, because my mom is not 50 yet but she somehow feels like 90+. This is not the point, but the fact that she won't get out of that thought :)

[flitspaaltje]

Interesting video Donna, I love your other rollerblade vids also. I love and enjoy sporty people like myself (O: I'm few months from 50 and feeling wayyyyyyyyy younger, so I totally agree with this video. Thanks for sharing, I'm a fan from this minute (O: I will subscribe after my post, have fun hon (O:

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@flitspaaltje Thanks! It is amazing how many people agree with me and are still living their lives to the fullest at every age. Your channel looks like you are a bit of a dare devil. Good for you! We need to keep challenging ourselves no matter what our age. Today I turn 54. 54 going on 25 :-) Have a great day! Donna

[DonnaMarieWebber]

Comments are welcome. Negativity is not. Good Luck to you finding happiness. You seem to need it. Donna

[TanjaJo]

I so totally agree! The whole reason I did the search on here for fit women 50 or over! (I'll be there next year, and plan on being the fittest I've ever been in my life) Thanks for the inspiration.

[DonnaMarieWebber]

YOu are very welcome and good luck to the second beginning of your life. :-) Donna

[DonnaMarieWebber]

Maybe you are missing the point? Don't fall for that learning curve of when we get old. Stay healthy physically AND mentally and you can possibly surpass the "care" stage all together. People are living well beyond 100 years now. I read your channel and I agree there are a lot of problems in this world. But there are a lot of good things and good people too. Yes, knowledge is power which you seem to have a lot of, but is it possible that it has dislocated the positives in your life?

[resonance2001]

@DonnaMarieWebber I heard of an experiment where they took some old people in a home that needed carers. They put them in a house that was decorated to the 1960 (I think) complete with TV programmes, dressed to that era etc. The people had to take care of themselves and they slowly became more mobile. One decided he didn't need a carer anymore. Interesting...

[Doubledig]

Yes, I agree with these comments and they do make sense. A lot of 'ageing' is about attitudes and expectations. I know someone who took up skiing at 65 and a pal of his is skiing at 72. I often walk with retired people who are fitter and have more stamina than some younger people. There are stricter laws now in the EU about ageism in the workplace but attitudes about 'someone of your age...' are hard to change.

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@Doubledig And that is why I did this video. I want to be a prat of a new movement that says Older Doesn't Mean That You Become Old. The amount of views and comments on this video confirms that their are a lot of people who feel the same way. Thanks for your input. Donna

[Doubledig]

Donna, Thanks for your reply. I've known a number of people who were still active over the age of 100 and it's all down to attitude. 'Act your shoe size' I say ;)

[AngryLesbian]

@Doubledig Donna shouldnt be so smug about being "over 50" when she was my lover for 2 yrs she told me that she was only 44 yrs old.... and that was 3 yrs ago.... the cow left me when i found out she was in a relationship with a man!!!!!!!!!

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@AngryLesbian I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. You must be a comedian or you just like living up to your name. Either way, I sincerely wish you luck in finding someone that will make you a happy lesbian. Donna

[kiribula]

@Doubledig 65 is not really "old" though, is it

[Doubledig]

@kiribula No,it's not. It's also about educating 'society' that people are leading healthier longer lives now and old attitudes to 'seniors' need to change.

[kiribula]

@Doubledig I find the word "senior" to be odd too :) Especially in the climate where people are getting younger, as they age. This whole "age" thing and hw it is treated in society is absurd. I am glad people are speaking up, attitudes do need to change.

People of all ages need to be seen. Not just one segment.

:))

[DonnaMarieWebber]

@kiribula I couldn't have said it better! Thanks for your input. Donna

[DonnaMarieWebber]

Thanks. Yes not everyone has the same metabolism but regular exercise can help slow the aging process especially when humans start at a young age.

I never looked at it as discrimation but I have to agree with you whole heartedly. What a great way to put it!

Thanks for the comment and giving me another angle to think about on this age old issue. Best of health to you. Donna

[uzavas]

i hear ya! im 37 and in good shape physically thanks to the gym. i run on treadmill for 40 minutes 3 times a week and lift weights....keep it up baby! i'd do ya definately!

[angelforfreedom]

You look absolutely phenomenal!

[DonnaMarieWebber]

Why Thank You! I see that you are a filmmaker. Today has been unbelievable. After doing my vids, I decided to try modeling and acting. I had an audition today and I have had 2 more audition requests tonight and I find you responding to my video. Maybe it is fate. Well, I hope you will keep me in mind for a part you might think I may fit. I'd love to see Vancouver. I have been told it is beautiful. BTW - I have lost 10 pounds since I did this video. YEAHHH!!!! :-)

[Creativ1]

Nice video and you do look great!

I look & feel very good too at 51 but can definitely relate at what you were talking about here.

The other day I went for a hearing test (perfect hearing :) and the audiologist said to me oh you must have been a pip with the kids years ago (because I worked in a school)

I wasn't sure to take that as a compliment been but just the fact that she said "years ago"made me feel it was an "older" comment.

51 is young to me!

[DonnaMarieWebber]

Thanks! I think so many people put an expectation on certain ages and when they meet some one who doesn't fit that expectation, they are surprised. We just need to smile and appreciate the left sided compliment because the reality is that it is a compliment. Stay young and show 'em that you may be 51 on the ouside but 30 on the inside. :-) Donna

[Creativ1]

So true. I definitely don't fit the expectation and that is a good thing.I love showing that this age can still look young and classy.

In fact my hairdresser saw an extra few grey hairs on me when it was time to recolor and she said "that's not you"

Anyway age is just a number and I for one and enjoying having older children and more time for me now.

Oh and one more shout out for my wonderful hairdresser when she told me'You're parents must have been something"

Now that made my day!

[nescaffe31]

hi donna, just saw your video about age and still looking good. i agree and like your advice on it. u look great by the way. anyways, keep up the upcoming advices video and stuff.

nescaffe31

[DonnaMarieWebber]

thanks for the compliment. I have something new coming out very soon that I am very excited about so stay tuned as I'm just getting started! :-) Donna

[RangerAlways]

You're right, Donna. I'm 62 & last year bought my 1st motorcycle since Iwas ........lets' say much younger. Got no wife & kids grown w/kids of their own. I Visited the grandkids once & when I rode up on the bike, I could hear the kids say, Wow, you've got a really cool grandpa. Before the day was over I had given a few kids rides & even a few moms. He-ha, ridem' cowboy.

[DonnaMarieWebber]

Good for you! Age is just a number that we don't need to worry about as long as we feel young. Stay tuned as I have a few things up my sleeve that I will be revealing in the next few weeks. I think people of the mature persuation will appreciate it...at laeast i hope so. You keep ridin' you big stud! :-) Donna

[Wisegeorge]

I'm nearly 56 and my mind says 25 but my body keeps telling me 68. That's quite an improvement from when it said 75.

[DonnaMarieWebber]

Sounds like you found a way to drop 7 years. What's your secret?

[Lindy769]

You are so right! I am fed up of people telling me that I am "old" at 56. I too have skates and ride my bike - so if I am old at 56 then doesn't that make those around me in their thirties "middle aged". If you give it back to people who are younger they don't like this. I think you look fantastic by the way.

[DonnaMarieWebber]

I love your take on our situation. I will surely throw it back at them the next time somebody tries to tell me I'm old. Thanks for the kudos. You keep doing what you are doing and stay yourng! We girls have to stick together.

[magicadespell56]

you look great for your age lol... i get that.... its hard to age in this country.. but thats OK..when we were young we did have OLD grandparents.. old teachers..there are days i forgot my age and think i am 30 -40 then if some ask me i say 53 usually they are shocked. and make me write down everything i do..i say dont think about it.. dont act it..dont even bother with #..i never did like math !!!lol x shelly

[DonnaMarieWebber]

You go Girl! Since i started these videos, I have met so many beautiful women just like you! We are vibrant and alive and looking forward to everything life has to offer. I say, The journey has just begun!

[filoeva]

I've been rollerblading for a year when I was 14 and I loved it. Nowdays I feel to old to try again. Seeing all the 8-12 years old kids having fun and being great rollerbladers I'm afraid that it's to late to renew old skill and advance in rollerblading.

Your videos are very inspiring. But I still lack the strength to return to rollerblading. Best wishes! Slovenian girl

[DonnaMarieWebber]

Is it physical or mental strength that you lack? We set our goals so high when we first start out that we make it too easy to disappoint ourselves. Set a very small goal and work your way to a better goal. Small steps lead to big steps. So if you don't have the stregnth to rollerblade, then walk. Here is what I want you to do. Think of something that physically makes you smile. Now take that thought with you and start walking. You will be surprised how far you will go on a positive thought

[filoeva]

You've looked great before but now ... WOW! It must feel good to see your body go through this kind of changes.

I'm 24 but in the last two years I've gained 20 pounds. Probably because I was working and studying too hard (daily college routine). As a final result I simply felt really really old.

[DonnaMarieWebber]

Thanks and yes it does feel great and you can feel like yourself again too! Just start off small. Just walk for half a mile a day. A week later, make it 3/4 of a mile until you start to feel better and better. You will see how simple exercise leads to a better attitude. Attitude is what gets us to a better figure. Don't give up on yourself. College is hard. But a healthy mind gives a healhty body. So start small and work your way up. I believe in you and I know you can do it!!!!! Donna
