I read Apple News and love the diversity of sources that are included. When a female in my 50's with minor impact from menopause symptoms, I felt that I could do anything that I chose to do. In my 70's, I still don't accept all the limitations that society has imposed on older women.
This article https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine...opause/596662/ explores very well all the influences that menopause has had in a woman's life socially, financially, politically and sees life as I do, full of possibility and adventure and hope.
Yes, I am aware that menopause can be truly awful for some women and I do empathize but can we, please, please, please, avoid discussing menopausal symptoms and comparisons and focus on the power of the menopause for the human race as this article is suggesting.
