AARP’s new video: Aging Stereotypes Aren’t a Punchline

I like! It’s provocative, witty, and a huge improvement on one that preceded it, “What Does ‘Old’ Look Like to Millennials?” I do take issue with the video’s first punchline, Aging is a state of mind. Ageism is indeed a state of mind, but aging is also a physical reality; it’s the same problem I have with the saying that “age is just a number.”  The punchline improves when more two words are added: “Own it.” I’m down with that.

  1. Yes, way better than their last, but still missing the mark in my mind. Too Hollywood perhaps. Would like to see and hear real people and their voices.
