She has been vocal on her Instagram page about how limiting yourself to one's age isn't a good idea.

Porizkova wrote a short entry about a Brooke Shields Calvin Klein ad done when Shields was 15. Porizkova believes that Shields should do the same ad at 56.

Porizkova wrote in one of her Instagram post captions: "Many people confuse my desire to shed a spotlight on our invisibility with spotlighting myself. Unfortunately, I can not do one without the other. But the reality is that if I myself really wanted or needed to be visible, I have the means to turn back the clock and buy myself a permanent 39. Why don’t I? Because I believe our aging faces and bodies are not caving ceilings that need to be fixed. It’s only a different kind of beauty which is not quite accepted or seen. It’s the lushness of summer heading into the color explosion of the fall. IT’S A DIFFERENT KIND OF BEAUTY. One to be celebrated and embraced for its change. We all have personal preferences for the seasons, but it doesn’t negate the beauty of each. Its up to us, the sisterhood, to applaud one another until the rest catch up."

There had to be many reactions to Porizkova's outlook and one particular user took it to his Twitter account to call her out. The user, Gad Saad, is a Lebanese born Canadian professor. He decided to take on Paulina Porizkova by sharing an old photo of himself where he appears to be quite well-built and handsome. He tweeted, "Hey @paulinaporizkov, this was me in 1985. Yes, the body of a Greek god. But then this weird thing happened to me because of the "evil matriarchy." I aged. Today, I no longer have that body albeit I'm still ridiculously sexy. Accepting reality leads to ataraxia. See my next book."
