I feel this way often. I am a 30 year old woman and I honestly believe that after about the age of 25... I ceased to be visible in society!
I'm not exactly bland as a person both personality wise and aesthetically, so it isn't that. I put it down to my increasing age. Women past their 'prime' are no longer relevant, so it seems. Thus I feel both a sense of loss for my younger self and a sense of freedom that I no longer have to be so self conscious!
I can walk into a night club and no matter if I'm wearing a low cut top or short dress, I can dance completely unnoticed by those around me! I can walk down the street and people literally do not see me... I've been walked into countless times by people who were directly in front of me and looking in my direction! it's like an invisibility cloak!
In all seriousness, I want to know what you all really think about women aging in society, whether they become 'socially invisible' at a certain age.
What are your experiences of it, both men and women!
