40 years ago people lived to be about 65 so over the hill was 37 years old. Today they say people live to be 80, so over the hill is at 40. In the future when people are expected to live to 100, will over the hill be changed to 50?

60 is the new middle age. 70 is the new over the hill.'

I consider over the hill to be when you are too old to be able to do the things you used to be able to do. A lot of people get over the hill by age 30.

Though I will be 60 in December, the gals think I am in my 40's, as I don't smoke, and I don't chew, and I won't kiss, the girls that do!
Besides, the women who look '60' seem to have laid out in the sun, smoked and taste like an ashtray full of spit, and are too old for me!
I love ladies who are my age, as their perspective is one that is relevant to mine. But, the body is fine, skin is smooth. Won't reject the younger ones, but, they need to accomplish some goals, while the older ladies simply appreciate each day of perfection, in their own beauty and health, and that a man finds them so delicious.
I am 60, feel like 25, think like a 14 year old!
One more thing, the excess modifications to your body, for tattoes, piercings, shaved, or scared bodies, is simply sick, and an indication that you are a control freak, or 'some' kind of a freak or cheap idiot.

If your healthy and mobile, "over the hill" is a under statement
