[quote=Anonymous]Don't know what to say, OP, but wanted someone to reply ... so you don't really think you're invisible! But yes, I think there is a real issue of older women becoming invisible in society. There's a lack of respect in society for older women and no real role for them (I say this as a woman heading towards my 50s). I think it's a legacy of women being primary home and child carers and not in leading professional roles. Hopefully it will change for our children's generation. Also, our culture generally doesn't respect older people (like, for example, Asian cultures). The most important thing is not to get bitter about it! Keep yourself active and involved and definitely don't rate yourself by your looks![/quote]
