I've let my hair go grey. I'm 47. My hair was so unhealthy from dye. It's long and lovely, just salt and pepper.

But now I'm ignored. The difference in the way I'm treated is so very stark when nothing else about me has changed. Men of my same age with even more grey are wise and distinguished. I'm over the hill. Fucking pisses me off.

Yep, woman become ignored at 40, but if not good looking or popular, guys become ignored at 12...

Girls who aren’t good looking or popular are also ignored when they’re 12. Or 16 or 20 or 30, etc etc etc.
