Baby boomers are men and women born between 1946 and 1964. This generation brought us the sexual revolution, beatniks, hippies and yuppies. They embraced a youth culture and an active lifestyle. Even though AARP may be recruiting you to join and now defines you as a senior, boomers prefer to think of themselves as “dating after 50,” with new websites popping up that represent them as a vibrant nation. President Jimmy Carter responded to the youthful tendency of baby boomers during his presidency, renaming Senior Citizens Month (May), which was created by President John F. Kennedy, to Older Americans Month. That appeased the first wave of baby boomers, but they still don’t like being dubbed as older. You’ll notice more men are happy to share the celebration of their 50th birthday. However, more women know the ageism of attraction, dating and how our culture relegated women over 50 to the shadows of prime time television and life until the 1980s groundbreaking show “The Golden Girls.” Now all the single women in TV Land’s “Hot in Cleveland” refer to themselves as “looking 40,” and they do look great, feminine, alluring and hot.
