Dominic West at the “Testament of Youth” Premiere

Posted on October 15, 2014

Darlings, is there anything more tragic than a hot man who hides the hotness? So frustrating.

And it’s made even worse when it’s a mature man, because we just want to shake them and scream “DO YOU KNOW HOW FEW YEARS OF HOTNESS YOU HAVE LEFT? PUT THE WORK IN, FOOL!”

We may be taking it a tad personally.

But that’s the thing; if there’s one thing we’ve learned as we got older (JESUS CHRIST, WE HOPE NOT), it’s that the aging man has to put progressively more work into himself if he wants to look good. We don’t just mean moisturizing (although Dominic: please start. Like, right now. Use Vaseline if you have to.) We mean when you’re 25 or even 35, you can get away with skipping a haircut, growing some stubble, and making it work for you. But when you’re at the 45-year mark, you’re better off learning to keep yourself groomed from now on. Cut the hair and either grow a full beard (which we wouldn’t recommend until you get a serious moisturizing regimen under way, mister) or shave it off.

Also: gigantic suits and cheap shoes only add to the hobo effect. PUT THE WORK IN, MISTER.
