I graduated from NYU last year at... not 22 anymore.
Same here and with all the males in my family. We look better older.
My two cents. This is not exactly a regulated profession, there's no code of ethics. That means that each provider establishes his rules as he sees them fit. If a provider wants to give a dicount or discriminate based on looks or age, there's nothing anyone else can do other than deciding to becoming or not his client.
I imagine it will feel great to be told that because I'm beautifull I'll pay less, but if it doesn't happen, who cares. I personally have a dedicated budget already, and if a provider is above it, too bad, too sad.

While I’ve never gotten the “in shape good looking” discount,…twice over the past many years I’ve had two providers turn into friends/relationships and the cash exchange stopped or changed…one once told me “I can’t take your money anymore”. So more the “get to know me and my personality” discount 😉

He's been deeply involved with Exodus International and he's a big proponent of conversion therapy. His wife is a psychotherapist who does Christian psychotherapy and equates man-on-man sex with bestiality.  As soon as the public eye fell on her because of her husband's rise, she took down her website. 
It isn't known for sure that he's an ex-gay, but quite a few people associated with Exodus International have later come out as gay. It is common for someone as energetically homophobic as he is to turn out to be a closeted gay.  So, I'm not being sarcastic - someone who hates gays as passionately as he does may very well be gay himself. 

He radiates confidence - I think he would be very easy to be around.  I wasn't that into him when he was younger, but he makes a great HOM (hot older man).

My husband and I only have a vague idea of who Taylor Swift is.  But then, we're baby bommers, so maybe our ignorance can be excused.

The thing I don't understand about makeup is why women think they look good when their foundation makes it look like they applied a thick coat of paint to their face.

Sub 10% BF will show in your face no matter how you achieve it.

There's more to it than that.   Testosterone is anti-inflammatory; it will increase your energy level; make your body more responsive to physical exercise so that it's easier to maintain a healthful body composition; it improves mood; sharpens your mental status, etc., etc.

When I do a show, I get a mani/pedicure and a coat of clear polish.  I love it.  It makes me sad when it wears off.

You have to really stay on top of the prescriptions - I have been up to as many 11-12 - I could leave the doc's office with a script nearly every time I see them.  I'm down to 5 meds right now and I haven't seen a doc in 9 months.

If you are committed to the idea that it's a medication, I can see that you wouldn't be comfortable with it.  You might try on the idea that it's not a medication but a hormone.

So be it.

But also, she just dismissed it as silly - no drama, nothing personal, she didn't come to any conclusions about his character or the way he used his time., or whether it was bad that he was trying to be different. 

Im neutral as far as  most colors - I can take or leave it.   but a man with black nails - whoa.  I'm thinking of trying it myself.

They would do full-page ads in the Sunday supplement of the newspaper - personal testimonies about the heartache and misery of trying over and over to lose weight and failing - YET AGAIN, until they discoverd Ayds.

I think she's heroic - she has been a willing poster child for all the gyrations that someone with a chronic weight problem can experience in struggling to somehow live with themselves.

Maybe it's an issue of class.  I worked with an Indian woman who was an engineer.  I heard someone comment once that she didn't have an Indian accent. And she said it was because she had been educated in private schools where the instruction was in English.  And if you think about it, Indian doctors and engineers tend not to speak with Indian accents - it's usually perfect Oxford English.  The Indian hoteliers tend to have humble origins  and to be from one state - Gujarat.

Genius.
