The other day I was thinking about whether acceptance of transgender people should or would extend to trans-race people. I considered the concept of "trans-age" as well. If some things we previously considered to be biologically defined and immutable are now seen as more fluid, seems like the future is to extend that to all parts of our identities. Especially with things like VR, genetic engineering, more advanced surgical and chemical procedures...

Exactly. Ageism is as negative as any other stereotype. I completely believe that if you hit a certain age and start to believe you're old your body and mind will respond to create that experience, and vice versa.
