All of us generalize and marginalize one another. It's easier that way. (But very few do that to themselves. We're generally a lot better critiquing others than we are at evaluating ourselves...) You are living your life. That's all. A famous writer, sitting in a Tangiers cafe' and talking to another famous writer about Critics' reviews, said: "The dogs bark; but the caravan moves on..."

I get asked all the time "when are you going to act your age (middle aged woman) and stop riding motorcycles?". So I can do what, take up knitting???

I have found that people love to label you because it's a defense of their own shortcomings.
If they're jealous of your fun, your guts to do something unexpected, your ability to afford to do it, it's easier to label you as some kind of deviant than to admit that they're wishing they were doing it too.

Gotta add something here -
The wife and I met up with a group of friends a while back. We decided to ride over. None of this group rides at all! One of the guys comments (innocently because I don't think he ever rode) that mabey he'd go out and buy one- his wife snapped back NO WAY!
NOW - THAT'S A BEGINNING - MIDDLE - AND END OF LIFE CRISIS!!
