Stuffed. Sorry girls, but even in December 2024 when everything festive is about diversity, inclusion and equality, women over 50 are more likely to feel patronised or ignored because of their age.
Fifty. Bloody 50! Sorry but some of us have got handbags older than that! Supermodel Elle Macpherson turned 60 this year, for Gawd's sake.
But, sigh, it seems that entering your fab 50s means you're more on the shelf than that damn elf you bought as a joke to scare the husband.
More than one in three middle-aged women say they have been patronised because of their age, while 27% feel they have been ignored.

'THAT'S NOT MY BABY'
Lying in the hospital bed, my husband Michael had tears of happiness in his eyes as he showed me a photo on his phone. 'Here she is,' he said proudly. 'This is our beautiful baby girl.'I stared at the photo and shook my head. 'No, that's not my baby,' I said. 'There must be a mistake.'It was August 2010 and I'd not long before had an emergency caesarean.
