Grumble grumble about SW age categories

This is probably just silly vanity but I resent that SW has me in the "61-69" age category. I am not yet 65, which is the traditional age of retirement and being officially a "senior citizen" around here. I feel like there is a big different between me, practically still in my 50s, and someone aged 69 who is almost seventy!

Anyone else perturbed by being lumped together with "much" older (or younger) people here? :)

You don’t have to post your age at all, so it needn’t be an issue. I’m not ashamed of my age, but I tired of it becoming an easy striking point when someone disagreed with something I’d said.

@bijouxbroussard I hear you! Age is about the last thing that progressive people feel it is OK to be prejudiced about...

@ServantOfTheGoddess Especially for women, alas. Senior men are still valued a bit more.
