"Ladies, ladies, ladies, I have something really important to tell you: You&amp;#039;re insane, you&amp;#039;re making yourself miserable. Stop. According to a recent study in Britain, women say they feel &amp;quot;over-the-hill&amp;quot; by 29, while men feel over-the-hill by 58 years old. And the reasons are the best part: Women feel old when they spot their first gray hairs and start acting like their mothers; men feel old when they can no longer perform in the bedroom and start to become annoyed by loud music in bars. The UK Daily Mail reports this difference is because &amp;quot;society&amp;quot; has an unfair attitude towards youth and beauty in women, but men are not held to the same standard of perfection. I agree, society does have an unhealthy attitude about women&amp;#039;s youth, but women are half of society and half the problem. By obsessing over youth, or our &amp;quot;lost youth,&amp;quot; we are sending a message to men that youth is better. Men are just going along with us. But I have a secret to tell you: If you take care of yourself, carry yourself with confidence, are healthy and dress well, you&amp;#039;ll still be sexy\u2014if not sexier than some youngin&amp;#039;\u2014cause you&amp;#039;ve got the smarts and maturity to back it up. In French society, older women are sexy. Not the same kind of sexy as a 20-year-old, but sexy\u2014maybe even sexier. I am 29 years old, and I find the idea that I am over-the-hill ridiculous. Who wants to be 22, anyway? I was clueless at 22. Now I know what&amp;#039;s up\u2026 at least more than ever before, and I know I&amp;#039;ll only get smarter. When I see a woman I aspire to be, it&amp;#039;s Kelly Ripa, mid-40s, got it together, looks great, smart, confident, successful. It isn&amp;#039;t Miley Cyrus, I can assure you. So ladies, I beg you. Stop. You are not over the hill if you don&amp;#039;t act over the hill. If you say you&amp;#039;re old at 29, it&amp;#039;s a self-fulfilling prophecy. - Alexandra Gekas, Associate Editor "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
