I don’t like it.

It’s misogynistic, racist and ageist. A pathetic and cruel attempt to silence (generally) white middle aged women. Just fade into the background and put up and shut up.

In an increasingly politically correct society that encourages people to “be kind”, non judgmental and accept difference, this targeting of one group of people is grossly hypocritical. Aggressively demanding to see the manager, sticking your nose into other peoples business etc are unpleasant behaviours that exist in every demographic, not just older women.

I know, like most of these things, it was probably initially a joke but it quickly developed into something nastier. And it’s acceptable because older women are unpopular.

Oh, and I also don’t like the term “snowflake” to describe people under 30 who disagree with or are offended by something. We all have likes, dislikes and opinions and should have an equal platform to discuss these issues.
