Best of: I'm Not Dying But Ageism Should

Modern Gen X Woman

You look great for your age. I didn’t think you were a day over 40. You’re too experienced. I think we need someone with more tech experience. Good for you for starting a business at your age. Do you still play basketball? I can’t believe how fabulous your skin looks, what do you use?

These statements may seem like innocent comments but they are contributing to the negativity associated with aging.
