Women getting older
often think they are ugly.
Their skin is loose, their hair is thin.
They no longer look like the models in magazines.
They are suffering not from aging, but from
internalized misogyny.
We’ve been taught our whole lives
that old women are ugly.
That is because the men in power
are pedophiles.
They want young women
because they are gullible.
They hate old women
because we are wise.
Embrace your hag years!
Find beauty in being unmanageable.
