[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 50 and the one thing really making me feel down is that 50% of my fellow citizens think it’s great that a racist misogynist who espouses hate is the leader of our country. I was totally okay with having been screwed out of promotions and pay because I’m a woman, especially since I had the pleasure of raising kids. But the fact that I don’t feel like I’ll be left alone to enjoy my hard-earned money in peace when I finally do get to retire . . . well, that makes me want to rip someone’s face off. [/quote]

I completely get this.

FWIW, I'm coming to a certain peace about doing whatever TF I want because it's not like society values me anyway. [/quote]

Yes! NP here, and I’m just starting to see what older women have told me about the power of invisibility. Once you go grey and get some wrinkles, people (men, really) honestly don’t even notice you! I’m 44 but I’ve stopped coloring my hair and am starting to embrace the freedom that comes from just not caring. Watch out, world! [/quote]

My SIL is 72 and men follow her around the grocery store. I’m 58 and it depends on where I am - LOL. [/quote]

^My cousin is 60 and every one refers to her as the "hot" mom. She has always been gorgeous and she is very fit and active. Still wears a bikini and poses next to her two daughters in it and looks really GOOD. I should note she also has a great personality and is very outgoing as well. She has no problem getting and keeping attention even now.[/quote]
