“I’m seventy-three and I want to be a movie-star.”
“Honey, It’s too late. Act Age appropriate.,” Janet says.
“Everything is age appropriate. Age has no rules. Only outdated fallacies.”
” Tell that to the world.”
“I will. I’m not a senior. I’m a person.”
Age March is for those at any age to celebrate their real age. Who feel the pressure to look, act, and be YOUNGER. For those who want to pursue their passions, without age segregation.
Let’s protest age divisions. As soon as you’re sixty you’re relegated to an outdated stereotype. Life is more than others tell you to be. It’s passion, individuality. It’s for all people! Let’s create e a POWER AGE society, not an ANTI-AGE SOCIETY! We must stop the absurd rules that are set forth. Anyone, no matter what, can contribute to society.
Why?
We get the message that unless we are puffed from Botox, we can?t have a job or romance. But this is simply Not true! We should move forward, not backward, to be who we are and not bottled like a Calvin Klein perfume ad.
The first step is not to lie about our age. To be “real.” Then we can have it all. I want anyone who feels the disease of age discrimination to march in protest of ageism. We will wear our real age on a sticker that says, “I’m __ years old.” This way the whole world can see that we’re not ashamed to be who we really are. We are celebrating who we are.
What do you think? Are you with me?
