[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Baby boomers are really not going to go gently into that good night, are they? Hee Hee. I feel sorry for baby boomers aging, since celebrities get maintenance work done, like hair, Botox, teeth whitening, personal trainer, plastic surgey, micro dermabrasion, chemical peels, money on clothes, etc. Those Lifestyle Lift commercials with Debbie Boone singing "You Light Up My Life" are the worst. "What grays? Not that I ever had any." "I don't intend to age gracefully. I plan to fight it every step of the way." Fear of aging is great marketing. Only 4 in 10,000 Americans live to be 100. If you are 60, instead of worrying about being invisible because of your looks, think about retiring and enjoying what little time you have left on this earth. [/quote]Oh baby boomer hate. Surprised it took you so long to get here. The issue is not baby boomers, pp, the issue is how women have been socialized to focus on their looks and then some women have a hard time in old age. This can happen to a woman from any generation. Speaking only for myself, I feel great. Never got attention before so I don't give a damn about it now. [/quote]
