Why do men's ears get larger as they age. " The better to hear you with my dear?"

Factual Questions
1

Recently compared my ears at the age of 70 to photos of me in my 20’s. Noticeably larger now.

Have always noticed that in older people. Thought it was just my imagination. But it does seem that ears grow larger with older men. (Haven’t really noticed that with older women…but could be camouflaged by longer hair.)

What causes that?

Not just your ears, but your nose as well.

head shrinkage.

Thanks. Pretty much answers it.

My nose seems about the same size as ever, but I guess will need to give it another 10 years.

And don’t our eyes remain the same size as when we’re born? Or was that debunked?
