Yeah, I saw that. I thought she'd only chosen unfortunate adjectives. She knows that Sophie isn't really an old lady; wouldn't her objection to someone who only looks old be, well, that they look old?

If she really believed that old-looking people must act old too, that says something about expectations based on appearence. I mean, in this case Sophie's appearence and personality are connected, but that didn't necessarily have to be true.

...except that in a lot of visual mediums it is. You see?
