" She ’s 31 , not 71 . "

People areonce againmaking baseless claims that people in their 30s are old.

It all started when a picture ofMiley Cyruswent viral, claiming the 31-year-old Grammy award-winning singer “aged like fine wine.”

People were like, “Wait, what? 31 is old now?”

“She’s 31, not 71,” one person said.

Another person said. “She’s not geriatric, she looks normal for a 31-year-old.”

Sooo, because this seems to be a trend, let’s look at what 31 has looked like in our recent history so we can determine once and for all if 31 is old now*.
