You didn't even include the best one!

Carter has held up remarkably well. Isn't she 60 something? I remember the actress being at least 10+ years older than the character.

But damn time finally caught up with Troi. Especially in the last year or so.

This isn't that terrible. With makup, I'd even call it aging gracefully.

Also, god DAMN Kes looks like a scary pedo.

I wasn't saying Lynda aged terribly, just that the OP didn't include her.

Also I'd still fucking destroy Lynda

>Kes looks like a scary pedophile.

She actually is. She was arrested a few months back for sexually assaulting two kids. Last time I checked the court case is in a few months.

I found out she auditioned for the role of Kathryn Janeway in Star Trek Voyager

>>78568048
She's 64, has aged more quickly in the last couple of years but still looks good

I think the other anon switched replies

As for OP's question, Hippolyta counts, right?
>>
>>78568150
Oh yeah, he probably did. I didn't read the top part of his post.
>>
I'm also glad that they are using more blonde Hippolyta lately

Amanda Waller until they made her all young in the new 52

Claudia Black should stick to dark hair

she is 60

Denise Crosby is 58; Jennifer Lien is 41, but was apparently unwell (cancer I think) for some time; Amanda Tapping is 50; Claudia Black is 43.

Partly the reason our bodies (male and female) change over time is down to lifestyle, but a lot of it is genes and environment. Being active will stop you getting overweight (unless you're too active, because muscle mass will also eventually make you overweight), but if you're active in say a physically demanding job over which you have little control, or you eat poorly, all kinds of things can still make you age "faster" than comparably active people in different jobs/environments.

For women, over a certain age (generally between 45 and 55) menopause begins. This is the natural ending of the menstrual cycle - the end of fertility. Ms. Sirtis and Ms. Crosby are both, it's fairly safe to say, in the late stages of or entirely through menopause. This change in body chemistry in itself causes a number of physical changes in a body, and again, genetic factors are very important here. For some it's easier than others.

Also, Jennifer Lien looks particularly bad there because it's a mugshot from her arrest last year.

Man Crosby used to be so hot. The short hair didn't hurt, either.
