Line 7:
Age is all in the mind.
Well, for some people, anyway. Most of us will likely get [[Grumpy Old Man|grumpy]], [[Dirty Old Man|perverted]], or [[White Dwarf Starlet|past our prime]] and will end up [[Elderly Blue
But then, there are those who get ''better'' as they age; the ones who still qualify for the 'desirable' tag, even when they're grandparents. These men and women have maintained their dashing good looks, class, and sex appeal despite - or ''because of'' - their greying hair.
Line 25:
== Comic Books ==
* Depending on the art style, Commissioner Gordon from ''[[Batman]]'' can be quite the Silver Fox.
* [[Magneto]]. He was a child during World War II, part of his history that has still not been [[Ret Conned]], and still has his looks.
== Literature ==
Line 50 ⟶ 49:
* Sun Jian, starting from ''[[Dynasty Warriors]]'' 6 on.
** It helps that, historically, he only lived to be 36.
* Ezio in Assassin's Creed: Revelations. He's 53 and still running around preforming rooftop acrobatics and charming his new love interest, who's almost 20 years younger than he is.
* Sonya Blade, in ''[[Mortal Kombat X]]'' and ''[[Mortal Kombat 11]]''. She looks great for a woman old enough to have a 20-something daughter. Johnny Cage too, to a lesser extent.
** Possibly a case of [[Beauty Equals Goodness]]; Kano was also one of the original Kombatants, and while still a decent fighter, [[Evil Makes You Ugly|he has not aged nearly as well.]]
== Web Comics ==
Line 75:
* John Slattery, [http://www.societyofjohns.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/John-Slattery-as-Roger-Sterling.jpg so]{{Dead link}} [http://img.poptower.com/pic-32268/john-slattery.jpg?d=1024 much]{{Dead link}}. It helps that he's prematurely gray, making him substantially [[Younger Than They Look|Younger Than He Looks]]. (He was born in 1962.)
* [http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lot97zzDtm1qbhi1ko1_400.jpg Janove Ottesen], charismatic frontman of [[Kaizers Orchestra]], seems to be heading this way. Not even 40 yet, but he's already proudly rocking the grey-haired look.
* The late [[Alan Rickman]], definitely, towards the end of his life.
* Richard Gere.
* Robert Wagner
* Tim Gunn. Named one of ''People Magazine''{{"}}s "Sexiest Men Alive" in 2006.
* Jamie Lee Curtis; especially notable is that she's become quite a vocal opponent of Photoshopping and other forms of photo retouching, and manages to look damn good with only a pixie cut and a little bit of makeup.
* [[Food Network|Geoffrey Zakarian]].
* Some men's hair dyes are designed to cover up some, but not all, of their gray hairs, so as to give them a dignified salt-and-pepper look while still remaining somewhat youthful.
* [[w:Ming-Na Wen|Ming-Na Wen]], the actress who played [[Anime Chinese Girl|Chun-Li]] in ''[[Street Fighter (film)|Street Fighter]]'' and [[Dark Action Girl| Fennec Shand]] in ''[[The Mandelorian]]'', and voiced [[Mulan]] in the 1998 Disney film, turned 60 in 2023.
* Cassandra Peterson, best known for her role as [[Elvira, Mistress of the Dark]], was born in 1951, and [https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BMjQ1OTUwODYyOV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwNTY4Nzg5ODE@._V1_UY1200_CR134,0,630,1200_AL_.jpg still a looker even without the makeup.]
