It all started with a client. I quote: “at 29 I feel like a sad, stupid AUNT.” Immediately after, in my friend feed, I found several posts on the topic) For example: By the way, the post was preceded by information about chauvinistic content and a touch of sexism)).... In fact, there is nothing wrong with the quote... But this is an excellent indicator that reflects our views at ourselves...What do you think were the most comments? I think you guessed that the bulk of the responses were from women who were touched by the contents of the post... Like a stone thrown into their garden... After everything I saw and heard, the professional sociologist in me woke up!)... I was very indignant at the fact that social stereotypes instill in us the idea of ​​already outdated social norms! We compare ourselves with them, and often the comparison is not in our favor, it causes an inferiority complex... So)... I would like to give 2 facts about all this!) Fact number 1. And you know that 200 years ago the average life expectancy was generally 33 years? Now in developed countries we live on average until 70-75 years old and suffer from depression... And before people were decimated by infectious diseases, and by the age of 30 a person was already considered almost elderly... Maybe this is where our feeling comes from that at 30 you are young has it already passed? Social norms, as we know, are an extremely changeable thing, but they do not always change in a timely manner!...Fact number 2. And my favorite) Sociologists from the UK conducted a large-scale survey in which two thousand people, men and women, participated. Based on the survey results, scientists were able to determine the most attractive age of women. You probably guessed that the peak age was 30-31 years old?) It is at this time that the fair sex not only becomes as seductive as possible for men, but also gains maximum self-confidence. In the UK)…And in Russia, unfortunately, there are still many women who are afraid that after 30 their youth is gone!….But, fortunately, not all of them! Why am I saying this? Let's believe the facts! And in a good sense, cultivate the self-awareness “I’m okay!”... Don’t bother yourself with outdated norms!) Then relying on reality will give us that very solid ground under our feet, which will allow us to effectively get out of the transition period and live better than before!) Did you like the article?
