But women in particular are never encouraged to look forward.

We're encouraged to dread what is coming ahead.

So many of us ward her off.

And it's like, she knows what's up.

She's got all the answers.

She's having way more fun.

Whenever you watch interviews of women in their 80s, 90s, even 100, and you ask them, what would you have done differently?

It's almost always like, I wish I had not centered my life around a man, or I wish I had done more of what I wanted,

I wish I had misbehaved more.

I wish I had not cared so much what people think.

Unequivocally, those are the answers.

I've never yet heard someone say, I wish I'd been thinner.

I wish I'd had less wrinkles.

I wish I'd been more obedient.

Mm-hmm.

It's never the case.

So I really take heed of those words.

And I think we're very lucky to have access to those words and access to these women.

And the reason society tries to erase these women and make these women try to behave like young girls and look like young girls and mutilate ourselves to emulate youth is because they're terrified of what we might tell the younger ones.

And so I feel very, you know, that's why I'm trying to launch my cronies early.
