Five Things to Never Say to Me, a White, Older, College Graduate, Overweight Woman



Lately in the Diversity Magazines on-line edition, they have had articles about,"What not to say to African Americans, "What not to say to the Handicapped, "What not to say to Asians, and so on. So, Ladies, and Gentlemen, Boys, and Girls, and all others below are "Five Things Never to Say to Me, a White, Older, College Graduate, Overweight Woman:"



1. You don't look that OLD!


2. Why are YOU so grumpy?



3. I wish I could have experienced the 60's like you. You are SO LUCKY!



4. I am sorry, I didn't see YOU. (This one is when you have been standing in a store or restaurant and it is like you are invisible.)



5. Have you LOST WEIGHT?

Laughter Parties

During the 1970's and 1980's I went to more "Tupperware" parties than I even want to admit. For those of you who don't know what a "Tupperware" party is let me give a very short description. It is a party at some woman's home. Between five and ten women go to the hostess's house and a "Tupperware" advisor shows the latest tupper ware products, which can be purchased.

Back in the 70's and 80's it was a rite of passage for girls to go through. Before you could proclaim that you were a woman you had to grow breasts and go to at least 10 "Tupperware" parties.

I am suggesting that we replace "Tupperware" parties with "Laughter" parties. And these parties could be for both women and men. So a host, man, or woman, could host a party and invite people over and bring in a Laughter Leader, who could teach people to laugh without any reason.

There are "certified Laughter Leaders" throughout the world. To find these "Laughter Leaders," go to http://www.worldlaughtertour.org/ These "Laughter Leaders" could lead the guests through laughter exercises and for an hour people would laugh and help reduce stress and feel better about themselves and life.

So, America, let's do less "Tupperware" parties and do more "Laughter Parties." Be the first person on your block to host a "Laughter Party."

Let me know what you think. Who knows maybe we could bring in our old tupperware tops and "burp them shut."
