The five oldest-known people in the world today. All women, naturally.
Born in the 19th century, still going strong well into the 21st, having lived the 20th in its entirety.
From top: the oldest, Misao Okawa, 116 (b. March 5, 1898, Japanese); Gertrude Weaver, 115 (b. July 4, 1898, American); Jeralean Talley, 115 (b. May 23, 1899, American); Susannah Mushatt-Jones, 115 (b, July 6 1899, American) and Emma Morano-Martinuzzi, 115 (b. November 29, 1899, Italian).
G’wan the feisty old dears!
“All women , naturally”.
How about photos of the 5 most well paid people in the world. All men, naturally.
lol, hit a sensitive spot did we?
You can’t be mad because women biologically age slower than men, can you?
How is that natural?
Women live longer than men, that is natural.
Years of evolution and envoiroment conditioning Clamps.
Damn you evolution for my innate ability to live 5-10 years longer than my beloved!! Damn you to hell!
Yeah, but you’ll have 5 to 10 years uninterrupted use of the remote !
And 5-10 years of the whole bed to myself! Score!!
*sobs alone, waiting for death*
and..er.. LIFE INSURANCE….
*buys lots of gin*
Having a bed to yourself isn’t all it’s cracked up to be… you’ve to do everything yourself.
Ironing sheets, make it, puffing pillows…
…what were you thinking!
…making the pillows Fluffy…wiping away the Biscuit crumbs….
Clampers, you iron sheets?!!! What?!!!
I don’t Don *sniggers*, not in my own place, not on your life. Must’ve been a memory …used to help me Mum in the B&B back in the day :) Used to get a pound a day for a few hours work, good times.
Phew. I thought you were a complete nutcase for a second there!!!
*chuckles*
Not in the slightest Don. Women seem to be mad that men are instinctivly better at providing for the tribe though.
Obvs I’m trolling slightly with this but this is a shining example that people are not equal. It’s also a shining example of how BS would never ever ever use the by-line above.
Yes but “women seem to be mad that men are instinctively better at providing for the tribe though” isn’t biologically true
The life expectancy difference is more social than biological though I believe, especially for anyone born pre-1950. Their male peers had far less a chance of avoiding physical turmoil or mortal peril than my male peers do.
Partly but also http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-22528388

More inspirational messages for our children. Aspire to be a supercentenarian and only be relevant or of interest because of your age and the century in which you were born.
Myopia is curable.
John Cleese recently talked about his late mother, who was a centenarian and also a sufferer of depression saying she witnessed all of these historic events of the 20th Century but was miserable throughout the lot of it. You have to wonder how much you’d remember at that age.
GGGILFS
I am not sexually attracted to any of the above-featured ladies.
I think the first one is Harry Enfield in drag.
wait until they get their teeth out.
They’re not impressed by you, either.
Probably not. I found this posting extremely hard to masturbate to.
“Feisty old dears?”
Come on, Broadsheet. You’re better than that s****.
Retired Li’l Wetzers?
‘Fiesty old dears’ seems like a pretty innocuous phrase to me, endearing even. What’s your problem with it? Also, how do you feel about the false teeth blow job comments above? I thought they were really funny but I’d say you’re horrified altogether are you?
apart from the first lady they all look a bit pissed off
They’ve probably outlived their grandchildren in fairness.
Ms Talley looks about thirty years younger than she is!
I’ll have some of whatever Jeralean’s having
reminds me of the old joke “why do men die before their wives? Because they want to”
Haha,Old but Gold..
