@grownupdish: Born between 1954 and 1965? Congrats — you’re Generation Jones, the bridge between Boomers and Gen X. Gen Jones women didn’t follow a path. We paved one nobody bothered to build for us. #generationjones #genjones #over60 #babyboomer #nostalgia
And we raised Gen X. We were the older siblings expected to take care of them while our parents were at work

I remember being in middle school and my girlfriend’s mom was a real woman’s libber. This was the late 60s I remember being over at her house and hearing the phrase, “A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle” things have changed considerably, but they’re still a long way to go

My mom worked as a Bookkeeper, she looked like Bond girl drove a drop top sports car. I thought she was so cool and she was. But unfortunately she had to deal with a man's world.

I’m Gen Jones and was raised by a single mom who made herself heard. She was no shrinking violet and had no choice but to speak up. She was the epitome of the slogan “You’ve come a long way baby!”

I am still struggling to find my voice. After 2 failed marriages and then a bad 15 yr relationship I am done with trying, done with trying to please, done with the selfishness. From now on it’s me and my dog. And I am so very happy. 🙏🥰

I was raised to be seen but not heard, it took me 50+ years to find my voice. I may not be loud but I make my point.

Nobody ever ever talked over my mom, my aunts or any of the women in my life. I’m not sure why that was your experience, but I’m nobody’s door mat and it’s because of the strong women who came first.

This is so legit. I tried to forge my mom’s signature in high school and realized she signed the notes Mrs Edward D. …. MY DADS NAME. I knew at that moment, the whole thing wasn’t for me
