i love seeing elderly women who clearly have reached that point where they don’t care about how they’re perceived anymore and are fully engaged with life on their own terms. idk that sounds deep but im just really happy to see this woman on the train rn with pink streaks in her hair wearing bright green new balance sneakers and reading a stephen king novel with a book of crosswords sticking out of her suitcase. i feel like ideally at some point in old age women return to the freedom and unselfconsciousness of pre-pubescent girlhood
