Thanks for these words, Adair. To heck with any notion of a best-before date for any woman. Women's compassionate and creative approach to leadership is exactly what the world needs right now.
Thank you for this thoughtful piece. The current undermining of civil society organizations, particularly those led by women, is disastrous. You remind us to stand up to 'best before date' attitudes and practices especially in these times.
I’ve always loved Patrick Swayze’s line from Dirty Dancing - “nobody puts baby in the corner”. I think I’ve got that right and I think most women have realized that we won’t let any one tell us who we are or think we should be. I think of Dame Maggie Smith - nobody looked better while delivering acerbic zingers of enormous quality. Thank you Adair.

I loved the fact that I didn't know what the piece would be about based on its title. Very engaging.

Love this piece and thanks for the tip: next time a peacock says something along those lines, I will snap back ‘ I don’t bave a best-before date.’
Bravo! Very timely, unfortunately, because of our changing world.
An interesting story to make an important point. Thank you.
Thank you for the writing and for your life work. Brought back many memories of work in development over 50 years ago.
Looking at the world with violence and greed everywhere, where humanity keeps showing its true colors, what can we conclude?
Vera Rubin a Nobel prize winner in ASTRONOMY? No, maybe if Vic instead of Vera.
What in hell did Emmy Noether do? Nothing, a woman. Ok so she gave Einstein the math to have general relativity.
This is behavior among the intelligent and yet the majority of white women voted for Trump. Damn, both women and men?
Humanity keeps showing its true colors but hey, don’t be a pessimist.
Ditto to what Kristin said Adair; a universal story no doubt.
