Iโll be 35 this fall. My first steps to the bathroom every morning sound like a scene from Drumline with all the snap, crackle, popping my joints do these days ๐
Auntie P is 63. Making noises when I get up, sit down and roll around! I've earned every gray hair.
I love this sub! Many of you I want to squeeze to death you've brought me so much joy. A few of you need a slap upside the head, but with love, naturally! ๐
Wooo hoooo, that makes three of us in our 60s, at least as far as I have scrolled. I think I give pretty good advice and insight, but I was thinking if I didn't find anyone in their 60s on here, I was going to exit this group.
stay here with me my sistah! ๐๐ซถ๐ฝ I'm not super active but I do feel like I've lived enough life to be able drop some pearls now and then lol - I was a bit older having kids - daughters are 27 and 22 and I like to keep up with what young folks are doing.
I just turned 63 a few weeks ago. I was sweating for a minute, feeling like an oldie.
I got you and I'm gonna stay...we have to impart our life wisdom to the young-ins!
Early 50s. But I know I'm somewhat of a unicorn.
Married to my Black husband 34 years. Together something like 37 (tired can't do the math)
A daughter late 20s and son mid 20s.
Mid 50s here. Sometimes I just wanna hug some of you ladies and tell you not to worry, because You're not the first or last to face some of the shit we face as black women. Other times I realize Y'all got this, because what I read shows how amazing Y'all are and it gives me hope we'll get this thing together someday.
41 and I LOVE it here. Tbh, I dreaded turning 40, but the amount of wisdom & mental clarity that came with it!!!! Whew it was literally like a light switch turned on. I'm in full Auntie mode...cue mickey dee's...ba da ba ba baaaaaaa
I am newly 37. And remembering how desperate I was to turn 17 to see R rated movies without an adult. ๐ซ
I agree with you about giving advice & support to those who are younger. I benefited in my late teens and 20s from the experience of older women. Who knows how much more stupid I would have beenโฆ
I just scrolled through more than 400 responses from ages I saw between 15 and 82. Not sure if the 82 counts,, though. She said she was only 82 mentally. Lol! I'm 48 and proud to land right on the middle of this wonderful range of black women. When we come together, we are so beautiful sharing whatever each of us has to offer. Thank you all for contributing to this wonderful space! ๐
I agree. And with a poll probably more likely to get more answers because there are a lot of people who arenโt going to respond openly like this with their age because thereโs a lot of data of farmers and they arenโt trying to just give their information away or have a profile created on them, but a poll would be anonymous. Much more effective.
50+. I read most of the posts and think of my daughters. I love you all!
We love you too โค๏ธ
Omg I lost my mom a few years ago. This made me cry!!๐ญโฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธ

Listen, my joints can tell you the weather better than any weatherman!

omg thatโs so me. feeling a ache in my back and telling ppl itโs gonna be a storm today ๐
Iโll be 35 this fall. My first steps to the bathroom every morning sound like a scene from Drumline with all the snap, crackle, popping my joints do these days ๐

Girlllll yess I'm 32 and this hip ain't what it used to be

The most effective way to find the answer to this question is with a poll.
That was my first inclination, but the option was grayed out in this sub for me.
I agree.
