I'm over 50 and I can tell you what I prefer to be called. Linda. Failing that, a woman will suffice. My rule of thumb is that if a person looks like granny on the Beverly hillbillies, they are elderly. If they don't look like that, they're just people. I know tons of young people that are stuffier than me, and in worse shape, too. So all the names for age groups went out the window.
