The Societal Pressures of Aging and Menopause

In this chapter from the podcast episode, the speakers discuss the societal pressures and stigma surrounding aging, particularly for women. They acknowledge that being called old is seen as a negative label, even more so than derogatory terms related to sexuality. The conversation also touches on the personal experiences of one speaker, who reflects on how her perspective changed after menopause and how this transition affected her emotionally.
