So why is it ok to make comments about age when it is unacceptable to make comments about race, sex or gender? For example i've had the following comments;
In response to being on fb " im on insta instead as i'm not old."
In response to me asking younger colleague about career aims " I'm not both etc as i'm young ( unlike you)."
Am i over sensitive bit why is it ok to discuss age and not race?
Is it because aging something we fear? Having said that, older people are guilty of looking down on younger people hence the millenial/ boomer strife?
Why the need to hide our age , especially as women and why are older prople not celebrated as wise,? Having said that, I was touched by the respect given to Captain Tom Moore. I have also been guilty of agism and yet it is something that ALL humans face regardless of sex, creed or colour.
