I don’t notice this at all.
In fact, my husband who is far younger than me looks much older and his face seemed to literally drop in a years time making him look very similar to his mom which I’d ‘best’ not describe what ‘that’ looks like.
My mom is 85 now and she most certainly isn’t looking more masculine. In fact her hair is longer, she’s thinner and is actually turning into a sweet old lady which surprises the heck out of me. She’s looks very frail but most feminine.
And I most certainly don’t look anywhere close to masculine.
Not a chance. I’m still very feminine looking.

OGF will agree with this, its a pity folks don't spend as much time worrying about keeping there physical frame in good functioning shape, it is no good being 70 and looking 25, if you cant skip up a few flights of stairs without getting out of breath.

But women do often tend to look more masculine, usually in their jawline.
I don't mean you in particular Bratti.

Sorry for appearing so offended. I really wasn’t.,🥰
Perhaps just more surprised than anything. Maybe there is some truth to it and I haven’t been observant enough to notice. We do get more facial hair. I hope it’s not true Morti.
I hope my voice doesn’t change to become more masculine.
Being feminine is wonderful. I don’t want to ever lose that.
Can I start whining about the unfairness of that now? 😏lol

It's all down to the reduced oestrogen, post-menopause, and hence the relative increase in testosterone balance.
I think a lot of the old stereotypes about grumpy old battle-axe women were due to that too. The relative increase in testosterone, etc., again.
The jawline effect could also be due to less elastic facial tissue, of course.
It might be less apparent these days as women become more conscious of their appearance growing older than perhaps they used to.
However, you only have have to look at old photos of old women from the past, to see this effect.
