Women of a Certain Age: How Old Are We?
I’ve just finished reading an article about society’s extraordinary, generous and open acceptance of Women of a Certain Age. Baby Boomer women. Half-way through the reading, I began to wonder where in the Universe the writer of this piece of rubbish was living … certainly not this one.
