[quote=Anonymous]Now wondering if the blazer I have on today is an emotional support blazer. I have a very stark memory of being home on maternity leave in the early aughts and seeing a TV add (this was before DVRs so I had to watch the ads) for Boflex or something with this ripped woman in a tiny string bikini, and at the end of the ad she said "And I'm a grandmother!" And with my post-partum body, I thought to myself --- this is a sign of the end-of-days. Seriously, our grandparents just did not have this pressure to look great after menopause. They were expected to look good, meaning appropriately put together (clean, nice jewelry, actual shoes, probably a dress that is ironed, etc.) but no one expected them to look bang-able, unless they were Sophia Loren. On the one hand, I'm glad no one expects me to wear heels and pantyhose. On the other hand, I'm really sick of caring about my meno-pot and my crows feet. [/quote]
