There's that little thing called the biological clock. Can't second guess that.
Otherwise--yes, I know that you can stay "hot" older and older. And I agree: Raquel Welch has got most of those starlets beat a mile. (Except maybe for her own daughter, who is just as hot as she.)
As with everything else, it depends. Once you're a fully fledged adult, age is pretty much just a number. I've met 80 year olds who in their mind/soul/spirit are only in their 30's. The body may fail for any number of reasons. Age just happens to be one of them.
Yes and it can be a pain at times when you get over a number that your body does not believe you should get over, maybe use Roman Numerals and fool them all!
there are age groups but being a number shouldnt slow you down people put pressure on themselves to be something and rush to get married just becuase they've hit a certain number

If you're willing to make a judgement on that then clearly age isn't just a number.
Handy rule of thumb - half your age plus 7.
