    I'M 25 AND I'M SCARED OF GETTING OLD
     
    Andrea: But one day we will lose our seductive power. That most basic power the one that attracts any random guy on the street.

    Eva: It's going to be brutal when the day comes when I walk by a man and he doesn't turn around.

    Naomi: ...And of no longer getting compliments in cafes. But since I started to realize that it won't last forever, I enjoy it.

    Andrea: Because now, when we're thirty, men think that we are at our best, seduction-wise. This is great!

    Nathalie: That's totally true! With our maturity, our confidence and looks that are not yet on the downward path, we're at the top!

    Naomi: But how long will it still last? Another five years, maximum... It freaks me out!

    Andrea: I don't take enough advantage of my seduction. I'm already thinking about the day when men will find me too old.

    Nathalie: Of course, after we turn 40, we'll only attract old guys.

    Eva: Except that, when she was 47 or 48, my mother was dating a 29-year-old! Do you remember that, Andrea?

    Naomi: I could never do that. For me, there's nothing worse than an old lady going for a kid.

    Andrea: Once, a guy told me, "do you really want to look like a little girl?" He wasn't interested in that look at all. He wanted a real woman.

    Naomi: I get picked up by guys younger than me. It makes me feel old and I can't stand it.

    Andrea: I'm afraid of the moment when I won't be looked at anymore. Older women are invisible.

    Naomi: Yet, if they appeared in ads and things like that, it might scare me even more.

    Andrea: I think that ads aimed at kids, adults, old people and very old people would be very scary!

    Nathalie: Well, on the contrary, I'm looking for role models and for points of reference to learn more about maturity and aging. A woman like Sophia Loren has kept her seductive power and seems to be comfortable with herself. I'm looking for role models for aging better. Older women are not validated. It could help us to be less scared of aging and would give us clues on how to govern ourselves. I have the feeling that I must search for this by myself.

    Naomi: I'm not trying to identify myself with someone else, young or old, famous or not.

    Andrea: I'd like to take after Faye Dunaway, as long as I'd be as famous as her. When you're not a celebrity, people find it difficult to take a "youthful" old woman seriously.

    Eva: She had aged well. She hasn't modified her whole body like Cher and others.

    Andrea: In the street, if those lipo-ed and tucked women weren't famous, people would say, "What is it with these old women who are totally plastic?"

    Eva: Except that, thanks to their celebrity, they can afford to keep a youthful lifestyle.

    Nathalie: It's not only famous women! Think about the rollerblade phenomenon: there are kids, but also people aged 30, 40 and even 70! And there are the street festivals, like music festivals, that integrate everyone. It's less ghettoized than in ads. People aren't stupid, they can see that there is a contact between the generations.

    Eva: I'm totally unable to imagine myself at 50. I can only see me now.
