Charlize Theron has spoken openly about the aging process and the rumors that she has undergone cosmetic surgery.
The 48-year-old actress said: "My face is changing and I love that it's changing and I'm getting older. But, people say that I did facelift. They say: "What did he do to his face?" and I'm like, “Damn, I'm just getting old! It does not mean that I performed an intervention that went wrong. (Aging) just happens."
Theron added that he has always faced challenges with the double standards on the subject of aging, stressing that "men age like fine wine and women fade like flowers".
"I despise this concept and I want to fight against it, but I think women want to age in a way that makes them feel good. I think we need to be a little more empathetic about what we go through on our journey".
Charlize is not the only one who has accepted the aging process and has also spoken about double standards. Even Gwyneth Paltrow, 50, told Vogue last month that women are judged more than men about the aging process.
"I think it's a cultural problem. As women, we want to be healthy, we want to age. The idea that we are supposed to freeze in time is very strange", said the actress.
