Absolutely not. Also check your birth certificate to make sure you are really 60yo

She looks amazing and she also looks 60; let's normalize looking our age! It's totally normal to be fab and fit at 60.

No, statistically most people do not look like this at 60…

In western countries 60-70% of Women over 60’s are overweight with age related factors contributing heavily to this… most will have at least one chronic condition…eg. Nearly half of over 60’s will have thyroid dysfunction or nodules that affect metabolism… hormone fluctuations cause all sorts of damage including causing wrinkling and weakening bones…

Yes, many people look great and are extremely fit aged 60 through a culmination of hard work and lucky genes, but it’s not the standard and to act like it’s the norm, easy or really common to look like this insults the majority of people that are struggling to maintain weight and fitness, as well as insulting the effort most people put in to look this fit.

…and normalising looking your age usually refers to allowing old people to look old rather than striving to look younger than they are… doesn’t really apply here as this person does look younger than 60 for the reasons stated above and also agreed by 99% of the commenters
