women's voice for change

Daily Creator E.H. sends us this information:

This is an invitation to change your life a little and to help change the world a lot.

We invite you to click on to http://www.womensvoicesforchange.org/.

There you will see what has taken the time, energy and passion of a group of dynamic women dedicated to changing the way women over 40 are viewed.

Begun in New York City in 2005, Women's Voices for Change is standing up for an accurate view of the 68 million of us in the United States alone who hold the bulk of the buying power and make the bulk of the important buying decisions in this economy.

We are a vital, versatile and vivacious force that is virtually invisible.

Featuring writing by an array of thoughtful and powerful thinkers and doers, http://www.womensvoicesforchange.org/ is your blog. It is where women in and beyond the menopausal transition are recognized for what they are: important.

We have articles about current events, health, sexuality and popular culture. We've got ruminations on everything from dynamic living to dynamite role models. We've got the former president of Vassar talking about the new president of Harvard.

We take on the bashers (Christopher Hitchens says women aren't funny? Please!), and we do some bashing (Suzanne Somers might be a nice person, but she isn't qualified to talk about hormones).

We invite you to visit the site now and often. We invite you to comment on what you see there and to consider going even further into the blogosphere by reading our writers guidelines and submitting an entry of your own.

It isn't about older. It's about better. And it's about time we started making some noise. Join us and pass this message on to others who feel the same.
