Psychologically speaking, most men.......not all, but most........will keep getting physically older, and maybe mentally more mature........but their personality will be forever stuck at the age they were most happy in life.

For most guys, they're forever in their 20s or 30s. No matter how old their bodies get, their personalities will never get past that.

Everytime I watch this short............I'm reminded of this psychological event.

 
I find that something like 90% of men become increasingly childish and boring with age .
Middle age crisis either nevers stops or they just "Shut Up Shop".

Then its Prostrate Cancer time and they fall to bits .
Just came down off the roof, putting up Christmas lights. In the last 2 months, I have closed our pool, biked between 15 and 20 miles, solo Kayaked 30 plus miles, some so far back as knowing it would be beyond cell service. Friday, I drove 400 miles to a Ky town to kayak underground, then hiked and climbed to the top of Natural Bridge trail for the view (while PJ waited in the lodge bar sipping Long Island Iced Teas). You might say, I'm stuck in my 30s, but having increasing difficulty finding others in 70s still wanting to keep getting out there.

Like most generalizations of large groups, I don't think that is accurate. Older men are a mixed bag of "Git off my lawn" to "Check out muh muscle car!". I'm somewhere in between.
