Julianne Moore slams ‘sexist’ comments like ‘ageing gracefully’

American actor Julianne Moore is calling out the sexist phrases that have been normalized in the industry.

The Hannibal star, 60, said that the phrase “ageing gracefully” is “totally sexist”, during her chat with As If magazine.

"There's so much judgement inherent in the term 'aging gracefully.’ Is there an ungraceful way to age?” she said.

“We don't have an option of course. No one has an option about aging, so it's not a positive or a negative thing, it just is," she went on to say.

"It's part of the human condition, so why are we always talking about it as if it is something that we have control over?" she shared.

She echoed the same sentiments earlier this year during an interview with The Sunday Times.

"It seems so silly to talk about it as something negative when it is a privilege to continue to age,” she said.
