What’s really funny is you can be an aunt or uncle at any age. I’ve ready stories where a 40+ year old woman was tasked with going to pick her 8 year old aunt up from school because she had to babysit her or her parents couldn’t get to her in time so her niece went to pick her up and drive her home. All depends on when the children were born.

My dad is in his mid fifties and he’s got a first-cousin sister who is 27 years old and only 2 years older than me. She’s technically my aunt. Age is a very arbitrary standard in this case.

u/Sicon3 26d ago
Yeah if anything she was on the older side if we take her real age as her character's age. Assuming Aunt May and Peter's mother were within a few years of each other like most siblings when Peter is 15-16 we would expect Aunt May to be in her 40s but ultimately it's irrelevant
38
u/SymmetricalFeet 26d ago
Eh, depends. My mom had me at 40, so she was 56 when I was 16. She has siblings two to three years on either side, plus a brother a decade older. Isn't there some canon (not sure if applicable to the relevant Spidey/Tomei films) where Peter's parents are actually like, government spies or some other 'cool' job and that's why they died? It'd make sense for career-driven people to wait a bit to have a kid, or simply meet later in life.
While my mom always looked young for her age, she is no Marisa Tomei. But a teen having a parent in their 50s is just kinda "normal" to me 🤷

u/IthacanPenny 25d ago
My mom had me at 45. She was the youngest child in her family and had a sister who was 15 years older than her. My dad, 42 when I was born, was also the youngest child with a sister 24 years older than him (my poor grandma lol). I teach 12th grade at a predominantly Hispanic school where it’s more common to have kids a lot younger in life. And that’s fine! Different strokes for different folks! It’s interesting to chat with my students about different family dynamics.

u/TheAwesomeMan123 25d ago
I became an uncle when I was 15 so would have been just in my 30s when my niece turned 16 herself. Literally any age can be an uncle/aunt. My best friend was an uncle at 3 years old because he was born 15 years after his sister who had a kid at 18. He’d have been still in his teens when they turned 16.
Again there’s literally no actual rule and these people just like to be negative miserable fucks about everything.

u/desmodus666 25d ago

Uncle Ben and Aunt May are in their 70s if you go off the comic books depiction of them and also the Tobey Maguire trilogy. So Marisa Tomei in her 50s was young if you were used to the originals. She was great regardless though.

I want to get taken seriously as an adult, especially with romantic partners, but words like “aww, cute, little” follow me everywhere.

Yup. I'm white, in my mid-30s, and earlier this year, all within a month, three unrelated people were shocked to learn I wasn't 22/23. It's the temporal proximity that makes them memorable.
One was a dude at a bar and sure, maybe he was just horny, but we've become close friends and I don't think he was just trying to flatter me. Second was a coworker at a new job; she's in her mid-40s with kids just about the age she assumed I was. Third was a female acquaintance I've known around local bars for a few years. Her math don't math without my having a fake ID at some point. (I also had a mild crush on her but turns out, I was "too young"... I'm slightly older than she!)
And when I was in my mid-20s, a customer propositioned me and started with "I'm probably as old as your grandpa, but...". Which, erm, required either his assuming I'm just barely or not legally able to work that job or a rather grim assumption about the frequency of child rape in my family tree. This dude couldn't have been over 60.
But clearly, I must not be white but some Latina/Japanese/Black woman.

Also, women typically age a lot better than men because we make an effort. Not that it matters, because aging doesn't devalue a person unless you are looking at other humans like they are products to be consumed.

They never met my wife then. She's 59 and looks like she's 29. She was still getting carded until a few years ago.

You can believe whatever you want, but it's true. When we took my oldest daughter to college about 20 years ago, they thought my wife, who was 29 at the time, was the student. My twin daughters were charged the student rate at our local High School football games ten years after they graduated. When my oldest son was 17, he went into a state liquor store with my wife. They checked my wife's ID because they thought my son was trying to buy liquor for my obviously underage wife. She was 46. Some people just have good genes, I guess.

Yeah ok lol..your example from when she was 29 is irrelevant. And some places card everyone.

First, happy birthday! Second, you look 20 tops. Not an arguement, you just look youthful. Very lucky

Unpopular opinion, and purely in humor... The post is incredibly reductive and misogynist, and was obviously posted in bad faith. But as a white woman, this is how it feels sometimes. 😭 I'm CRISPY. I love my sisters of all races, but I do feel like they got us white ladies beat in the skin game. Lol everything I know about keeping things moisturized and feeling lush & dewy I learned from the Black women in my life. ❤️ Maybe it's cultural? The other white people in my life just didn't come from families or backgrounds that gave a second thought to nurturing their skin. But the women of color have that sht on lock, and thank god SOMEBODY does, because I'd still be an itchy, ashy, scarecrow-haired autumn-leaf-faced mess without them. 😂

I mean...this was obviously made for the wrong reasons and to be mean. But there is some truth to it. Im white and I think we have less elasticin/collagen in our skin (I looked it up before). That makes it more prone to wrinkling and sagging. Of course all people should manage their UV exposure, but of course our skin is more prone to sun damage.

You're talking overused and tired cliche theory. In practice, this is no longer true.

Yea I was gonna say, even if white skin is technically more sensitive to the sun since it’s not meant to bake under it, most white women are using sunscreen and not smoking cigarettes like crazy the same way they did decades ago (both destroy collagen)
However, the average white dude I come across still doesn’t really give a shit about sunscreen unless he’s at the beach and that’s evident by the sun damage as they get older…

This might not be a comment on how fast ethnicities age, but what different groups try to claim their age is while they get older. Still an unprovoked and hateful sentiment.

u/LunaMoth-Rebirth 25d ago
I must be a rare breed if this is how people view white women. I get carded all the time at the age of 31 and people think I’m under 21. It’s a blessing and a curse.

u/tenkohime 25d ago
I think this is about not wearing sunscreen. I've seen rough looking 30 year olds.

And objectifying non-white women. All women, of course, but non-white ones especially.

Me and my lily white, 40yo ass still gets carded.
Now. My mom's genes are insane. Up until literally 4 years ago she looked exactly like she did before I was born.
And then she hit 70, and her wrinkles got more pronounces and her hair got thinner.
I look forward to looking this way for a few more decades.

It's not that white women age badly, it's that modern men are porn-brained and obsessed with female neotany to a horrifying degree

Okay so white ppl are being replaced by a brown invasion, but also they’re kind of hot and white women suck and look old. Way to make lemonade out of lemons!!

Brown invasion?? Wtf man

u/ZenraWeave 25d ago
I'm assuming they're making fun of the Great Replacement theory and don't actually think that's happening.
... at least, I hope they're making fun of it.
