Minsk Woman Challenges Ageist Stereotypes in Short Video A recent video posted online by a 30-year-old woman from Minsk, Belarus, has sparked a conversation about ageism and societal expectations. In the video, Viktoria Toristashevskaya, a lead iOS developer, responds to a comment that questioned whether 30 is 'young'. She points out that according to the World Health Organization's classification of youth, 18-45 is considered young adulthood. "I don't understand why some people, especially online, think that 30 is old," says Toristashevskaya in the video. "It's the beginning of adulthood, not the end."

Toristashevskaya's lighthearted approach to the subject has resonated with many viewers, prompting discussion about ageist attitudes and the evolving definitions of youth and adulthood in today's society.
