and her face became permanently stuck with a pissed off look.

(35,015 posts)of course she loves her lifestyle, so there's no way she's gonna dump his ass. She just puts up with his crap and wears a permanent sneer.

(28,158 posts)After a certain age a lot of women go a tad overboard trying to "fill back up" the fullness in their faces nature naturally reduces with time.
The results of over use of fillers, coupled with Botox, gives the face an unnaturally puffy and rigid appearance. IMO anyway.
I have a friend I'm going to show some of these pictures to. She's already a getting heavy handed with the injectables and she's only 40.

(28,158 posts)I think some of is the false belief that we women are no longer desirable when we age. Which is a meme created by an industry designed to prey on these insecurities.
I guess that's what it boils down to, personal insecurities. If you base your value as a person on time leaving a mark on your body, you're destined to become insecure.
For me, I was insecure when I was young. Painfully so. I never thought I was smart enough, or educated enough, to compete. Now I'm a woman grown and confident in who, and what I've become.
Which may be why I don't fully understand the trend. I'm happy to be wiser and don't miss my youth.

(32,076 posts)see the small verical lines between her eyelids and eyebrowS? Botoxed faces trying to make a mad face will scrunch up in the unbotoxed areas -- lids, top o' the forehead near the hairline.
Her neck reveals her true age...which is weird, b/c you can actually botox THAT if I understand correctly.
The weirdness in her lower face may be due to her oversized tooth veneers -- a common screwup. When it comes to fake teeth-fronts, bigger is NOT better.

Ann sneers like she thinks she is totally above everyone else in every facet of her existence and how dare anyone question her or Mitt.
Disgusting.

(8,646 posts)Who was, incidentally, a Mormon (which ended up being the reason they broke up too). She was blonde and pretty, but even when she was smiling her mouth had that sneer-look to it - the corners of her mouth were always in a downturn, even as a small child (we all went to school together). It was very pronounced because even when we were kids I used to think what a shame she always looked angry. Maybe she was related to Ann Romney.

(3,414 posts)the facelift (she can afford it). Pitty her neck shows her age. It's that "aging Prom Queen" look that is soooo fashionable among Republican women. See Cindy McCain, Kay Bailey Hutcheson, etc. And, for the record in case some of you mature Democratic ladies get your knickers in a twist, I am a (natural) blond woman who turned 60 the end of last November. I can assure you that my face is my own, and if I have a pissed-off look, it is #1 fleeting, and #2 deeply meant. And I was never a stinkin' Prom Queen.

Just because the republicans find solace in taking shots at the spouses of our people doesn't mean we have to as well.

(60,567 posts)In fact a lot of us can't. People making rude comments about Ann Romney's appearance or behavior are on their way to a train wreck when she plays the Multiple Sclerosis victim card.
