To my same-age peers: do you consider yourself old? Im always astonished by those who wont even use the word. I think it is an accurate descriptor of someone in her/his early seventies. What I really hate is when someone tells me I am young at heart, or calls me young lady. I find both of those terms demeaning and condescending. Old is not bad, its just an age. And a privilege. So many I have known didnt even make it this far.
