New article for Miista!
This time a brief presentation of ageism and a briefer interpretation of it.
"In Western societies, advanced age is commonly understood as a synonymous of ignorance, impairment and general decay, as if these conditions were equally inevitable for everybody through the wide spectrum of ages that go from the fifties or sixties onward. Furthermore, in this culture where a person’s worth often equals their productivity, older people, conceived according to this stereotype, are many times seen as useless or burdens."
