Why are women and not men judged for not dying their grey hair?

Asked by Pied_Pfeffer (28141points) June 12th, 2015

Based on some of the responses on this question asking which females dye their hair this one targeted at men who dye their hair, there is a disparity.

Why is that? Does it only pertain to certain cultures? Does it only pertain to the US and there are other countries or cultures where women, and not men, are judged disfavorably for having greying hair?

Do you judge a woman differently than a man who has grey or greying hair? If so, why?
