What does Collins seem to be saying about the subject of aging?
exis [7]

Answer:

Gail Collins in her book <u><em>"No Stopping Us Now: The Adventures of Older Women in American History"</em></u> talks about women and aging in America. According to Collins, aging is an unavoidable event of life and happens to everyone.

Explanation:

Collins is an American journalist and first woman who served as page editor of paper editorials. She has authored seven books, and<em>"No Stopping Us Now: The Adventures of Older Women in American History"</em> being her recent one.

She got the idea to write this book when she was penning her last book about the history of women's. She found a letter written by an elderly male colonist, who was looking for a wife, so, he writes back to England. The qualification that he asked for in his wife was, first, she needs to be civil, and second, under the age of 50 years.

Collins asserts that the definition of "young woman" had drastically changed over the years in American Society.

She explained, how early women were considered valuable because whole household were dependent upon her. But when people started moving towards cities, men would not look with interest in a woman who is past child-bearing age. She continued, that during Colonial period, if any woman dyed her hair she would be considered that she is trying to lure men into marriage by showing that she is younger.

In her book, she takes her readers on a ride, how the acceptance of women in society have changed over the periods, and how women's find it difficult to accept aging. But she suggests her readers to accept these golden years because aging happens to everyone.

First I would take them to the park. I would want to show them some earth games. No doubt at least one would fall and hurt himself, so I would have to take them to the store to show them around. Unfortunately one doesn't under stand the concept of paying for things so we are arrested.

While we wait at the police department, we are interrogated by FBI agents. They want to know everything about these aliens. The aliens are strong though, and they do not speak a work about their ship. I know where it is, but I am strong too. When the FBI Agent's head is turned, we sneak out. I take them to my house to eat cookies and play games. Then the FBI shows up at my door. I am forced to take them to the aliens. When I get back to the living room, they are gone! I am happy to have met them, and even though I will never see them again, I am happy.
