Old Man Myths and Realities

(l)When does a middle-aged man become an old man? Officially, of course, its when we reach retirement age. But, as we all know, this is a fairly blunt method of decision making. As life expectancy increases, retirement planning needs to be changed. This is because being an old man today is very different from what it was a generation or so ago.

(2)Sixty-five is the new middle-aged man. These days people are talking about the young-old, that is ages 70--75, and those over 75 as the old-old. The young-old frequently continue in good health and maintain strong links with friends and family. The old-old have a much higher chance of poor health and social isolation.

(3)Although men are living longer, there are still more old women than old men. This fact alone should arouse interest as to why. Relatively little is actually known about why this is the case or about the experiences of the old man. Sure, we are aware that the old man experiences anxiety, financial problems, loneliness, etc., but thats rea1ly about all we know.

(4)It is usua1ly believed that the old man often comp1ains about their health. In fact, most old man think their health is good even though most are diagnosed with at least one chronic i11ness. The physical health of the old man is strongly affected by their health behavior when they were younger.
