From Plymouth Rock (when a woman was considered marriageable if "Civil, and under 50 years of ageâ") to a few generations later, when they were quietly retired to elderdom once they had passed the optimum age for reproduction. To recent decades when freedom from striving in the workplace and caretaking at home is often celebrated, to the first female nominee for president, American attitudes towards age have been a moving target. Gail Collins gives women reason to expect the best of their golden years. 650 4 $a Books on compact disc, Unabridged. 650 0 $a Older women $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a Older women $z United States $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Older women $z United States $x Social life and customs. 700 1 $a Eby, Tanya, $e narrator. 941 $a 2 945 $a cdab 952 $l VTPD454 $d 20200211011240.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20191114010101.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6DF56D9006AC11EAB7FC8E1797128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
