[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Its a boomer thing. (I am 57) We played at being adults for awhile in our 20s then the thing was to act like an adolescent. There is not the "grown up" thing that our parents had. Be a man; be a woman. That concept is not really part of it. I guess be a professional does imply being grown up.[/quote] I think you are right that it's a changing gender thing. The things that make some of us feel grown up (high heels, staying home in the middle of the day) are traditional female roles. Maybe our generation is destined to feel a little torn between two worlds since gender roles have changed so much over our lifetime. What it means to be a grown up woman is very different from what it meant in the 1960s.[/quote]
