Elderly? Not while i draw breath!

l loved this, I have been listening to it in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, retired, feeling isolated, a bit sorry for myself, inside I feel in my 30s, so much I still want to do with my life, and yet it's people's attitudes to someone of my age that annoy me! The other day a friend made the comment re isolating yourself and said in all seriousness "you and other elderly", to say I was affronted and annoyed is to put it mildly, cheeky cow! Some of the letters have reaffirmed my belief that just because you are a woman of a certain age, you should not let others opinions, actions or beliefs lead you to act or be, less than you know you are, I have no intention of ever being "elderly" or of being who I am not just to fit in with their presumptions. if that makes me a "difficult" woman, then so be it, it has taken me a very long time to get this confident and comfortable in my own skin and I will allow no one to undermine me however well meaning they may be.

Inspirational and comforting.

This podcast serves as a reminder of just how blooming lucky we are to be surrounded by powerful women. I listened to it during lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic and when you are already missing those closest to you, the letters feel all the more personal and really hit a nerve. I have been inspired to write to my women. To the women that matter to me. Thank you for the reminders, the inspiration and the comfort in knowing that I too am blessed with such wonderful, wonderful women.

Need tissues

I cried through most of this, reflecting on the women and from the love that surrounds me, the ones that have passed on and the ones that need to hear these letters. It is powerful and wonderful. Have a listen

munroe bergdorf is not a woman

do we really need a man who's pushing a vapid hypersexualized pantomime version of our sex representing us? we are not a costume. Sick to death of men opting in to tell us how it's done. women are adult human females not the current or formerly bepenised no matter how made-up and splattered with glitter.
