		<description><![CDATA[I’m ambivalent about the word “mature.” It’s a euphemism for “not young.” Some think it’s a nicer way of saying “not attractive.” But to me it means, “I know more about life than you do, kid, and that&#8217;s a good thing.” Recently I read two books about this subject—looking for camaraderie, looking for consolation.

Lilly Daché’s Glamour Book, written in 1956, is a reflection of that time—pre-women’s movement. In it, Daché emphasizes the “duty” of women to look beautiful at [...]]]></description>
