Many women my age have known the experience of giving up crucial parts of themselves to please the man they love.

It's the kind of clothes that mothers and daughters can wear in terms of concept... It's not about age. It's about taste and it's about lifestyle. I believe women of all ages can wear anything.

I've an enormous respect for my mother who at the age of 39 raised three children and I grew up with my grandmother in the household. And so it was a really strong household of women - my poor brother! It was great growing up with so many generations of women.

You have to be desirable. And that's why so many woman of my age or even younger are pushed to Botox and plastic surgery all the things that people say 'Why do women do this?' Where do you go in your 50s in your career?

Whoever fleeing marriage and the sorrows that women cause does not wish to wed comes to a deadly old age.

Study after study confirms that even when you control for variables like profession education hours worked age marital status and children men still are compensated substantially more - even in professions like nursing dominated by women. No wonder there's a gender gap.

I wrote a screenplay for a 'Sweet Valley High' adaptation and it's really amazing to me how many women who are my age have responded to the idea and are excited about the movie.

I can't hit on women in public any more. I didn't decide this it just doesn't feel right at my age.

I figured out it was a social thing what women were allowed to do. At a very young age I decided I was not going to follow women's rules.

I remember at the age of five travelling on a trolley car with my mother past a group of women on a picket line at a textile plant seeing them being viciously beaten by security people. So that kind of thing stayed with me.
