Why Julianne Moore Says It’s “Totally Sexist” To Say a Woman Is Aging “Gracefully”

“I think we are given a narrative as children that we keep growing through school, maybe go to college then, after school is finished, the idea of growth is done,” Julianne continued. “But, we have all this life left to live. How do we continue to challenge ourselves, to interest ourselves, learn new things, be more helpful to other people, be the person that your friends and family need or want? How do we continue to evolve? How do we navigate life to have even deeper experiences? That’s what aging should be about.”

And the actress remarked that lessons like these shouldn’t just apply to Hollywood, but the world at large. As she put it, “I think it’s about time things change, and it’s fantastic that these behaviors are no longer being tolerated. The old hierarchy is being disassembled.”
