To be fair, a very large chunk of old people are likewise uninteresting. Aside from the general dulling of the mind that comes with age, you have to actually do things with those years for them to mean something.

Ahem they said "older", not old. 50 is middle aged.

Even if a person is a simple product of their times, as one gets older that gets increasingly interesting. Because the times change so much over the years.

Middle would depend on life expectancy. The lower and upper bound is probably 30 to 50 respectively. 50 feels straight up old though. I thought 40 was considered to be the "middle"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_age

"Middle age is the period of age beyond young adulthood but before the onset of old age."

In my book it's 40 to 59. 60+ and you old.

Would you consider Joe Rogan straight up old? He's 53.

And you need opportunity to do it, and other people need to find it appealing. You could do 1 of the 10 old / young people tropes and get clicks.

"Meaning something" personally and "being interesting" are not the same.

Also there isn't that much wrong with just exploiting popularity machine. So a bunch of people thought you were a young girl, and you're not... who cares! If anything you are teaching people to stop putting so much credence into the SM sphere... which can only be good.
