I love that in recent years you and others have unpacked these biases that we (societally) have seemed to expect of women. It’s crazy all the things women have to worry about. 😭😫🙈 And I hope as people keep talking about it, in the next so many years, we will look back and be like, “Whoa! Times were crazy!” You know when we look at 60s-80s overt sexism in workplaces.
I read all your posts with great interest from the lofty heights of early post-menopause. I always think to myself “Great, she‘s working it all out, she‘s motoring towards the acceptance and joy of letting things go that does come if we let it“. But then you write about make-up and I realise “Yep, I‘m not quite there yet with the self-acceptance and letting things go“. I am now able to leave the house regularly with no make-up on, that came at around 50, but if I make a video or am on a call, I still always appear with my full face on. That’s more for other people than myself. Thanks for doing what you do. It‘s important.
