In Opinion: Here’s the thing about ageism. It’s not always malicious, but it hurts. Is there anyone who would say that we don’t want everyone, no matter what their age, to participate fully and to the best of their ability in American society?
The idea of living to your fullest potential seems to stop when a person is seen as “older,” Darcy Evon and Thomas D. Kuczmarski write.
Here’s one to think about: How can you say, “You’re only as old as you feel,” in a way that makes the point that many older people are healthy and active without implying that younger is better?It all feels so innocent, and older people even do it to themselves! How many of us have forgotten someone’s name and chuckled it off as a “senior moment”? Jokes about “seniors” — are there “juniors?” — are still told as casually as forms of jokes long since put on society’s trash heap.
It should come as no surprise that a movement to end age bias is being driven by the baby boomer generation. Each step of the way, just by the strength of numbers, that generation has had a profound impact on society. And now, 10,000 of them are turning 65 each day.
