I often see people ask what women mean when we say we feel invisible as we age.

These are two ads I was served in the last 24 hours. A man promoted as 60-something reads as virile, strong, boldly acceptable. A woman supposedly in her 50s looks significantly older than him and reads as quiet, granny, sexless. Have you noticed this too?

It makes me angry. Not because there's anything wrong with being a grandmother. Because it implies we can't be both.
