30 is the narrative online where you're pretty much 100 years old. They're convinced once you hit 30 you might as well be her grandpa. The manosphere propaganda feeds off ageism insecurity.

    It's the cultural narrative of where adulthood begins these days.

    Childhood has been extended through your 20s.

    it used to be 18 in the 1950s.

    Current cultural narrative
    Baby: 0–6
    Kid: 7–29
    Adult: 30–39
    Old: 40–49
    Ancient decrepit mummified creature: 50–120

    There's a small window between 30 and 40 that is considered ideal. Everything else suffers from some kind of ageism
