If you continue to spend all day here posting when you have a husband living with you, you will learn more about divorce than you will about love, Sarah. That is my prediction. When my husband gets here, you won't see me here from one end of the day to the next posting insults like you do.

Thanks for your help. My wonderful husband is at work today, but thanks!

I don't think that you wishing divorce upon me is a very nice thing to say, however it doesn't surprise me coming from you.

that's a conditional statement, sarah. it's conditional on your actions. she's not wishing anything on you

Isn't Off Topic posting tings you need to correct?

And related to a completely different poster

Looks like someone needs instructions

I love this proverb. My in-laws say something similar in darija:

الله تيعطي الحموص الي ما عندسنان

Sarah, the stereotypes you have about older people must say a lot about the older people you know. Butt ugly mama? I'm just asking. Where did your intense dislike of older women come from? If you're lucky, one day you will be an older woman, and the great satisfaction that I have is that the callousness you display toward older women will then be directed at you.

It was a question. She didn't have to say it for me to ask. The post was an inquiry about where the origins of her animosity toward older women comes from. She displays a deep-seated fear of aging, imo, than applies her negative stereotypes to all older women. One cannot form such stereotypes without something close to home that reinforces them.

Your husband is ALWAYS at work . Work must be more interesting than home. So much for marrying a man your own age. Don't mean you're gettin any.

I'll let you have the last word, Sarah, since posting here is all you have to do all day.

Bye!

This is hysterical. Now a hard working man is a BAD thing? While the internet cassanovas are sitting with their $2/day from their mamas, with their coffee and cigarettes when they can be WORKING (don't hand me any b.s. about no jobs, I actually need 50 guys right now and where are they???? CYBER CAFES).

You are loathesome.

How is that differnt from the stereotypes you have of younger women which are also all negative. According to you we are all stupid, catty, etc.

I've been a young woman. Sarah has never been an older one. I see the difference between then and now and young women now, not all, but cerainly too many, are definitely more course and less well mannered. That, sadly, is what the culture encourages. You, yourself, brag about being rude, as if you are proud of it. Not my words, but they do make me shake my head.

I asked once before, and I ask again, why it's ok to demean age in a way that would not be tolerated when applied to race or religion. Most respondents didn't think it was the same thing, and defended ageism, but denounced racism and religious discrimination.

I'm curious as to why negativity toward young women is so easily noticed, JP, but negativity toward older women doesn't raise a peep from you.

now you are a pyschologist? How do you find the time?

I'm a social scientist. I study, interpret and explain cultural norms and definitions for a living.
