- Embodied individuals are constantly "on stage" and constructing asymmetric age relations. The age markers that are used to ascribe age to persons are central in these processes. Much research has taken as its point of departure a static understanding of elderly bodies as problematic and lacking in value. However, based on qualitativeinterviews, I will show that age markers are more dynamic, composed of physical signs and attributes and of age-coded characteristics. These results emphasize that it could be fruitful to include context and space in analyses of the processes in which age based inequalities are constructed.
