Ok, so I'm in my mid 50's. That is okay with me.But I see myself and my fellow sisters as being a very underutilized resource. You talk of terrorists with fear. What would they do with an angry grandma? Think of the blow we could deliver. And we have the steely determination to back it up. Have you ever changed the diaper of a disabled 7-year old? It amazes me when some reporter is interviewing some heinous dictator and sit right there with almost the devil himself without action. Having coffee with somebody that has killed women and children. I think we are being overlooked as a vastly superior resource in some instances. |

Read some of Elizabeth Moon's novels...she talks about the power of the old 'aunties'...boy, they make you proud to be a woman--an old, ruthless, rude, determined woman.

It's called "iron fist in velvet glove syndrome". Sorta reminds me of the movie "Steel Magnolias".
