Yo, vieja

This is a tour of human rights in old age and, specifically, of women's rights, synthesized in three principles that Anna Freixas considers fundamental in old age: freedom, justice and dignity. Therefore, these survival notes are designed for the new generation of old women who are new freedoms, for those who maintain their dignity, for the elderly who while moving through the calendar are able to scrutinize life and daily relationships with perseverance and acuity. This book tries to be a reflection and a diversion on an assortment of little things that at this moment of life can make it bitter or, on the contrary, make it easier for us. A kind of focus to illuminate situations in everyday life that we believe so normal that we do not consider them important and that, nevertheless, constitute the bulk of discrimination and social rejection of older people, solely for the fact that they are. Freixas also tries to make visible certain factors that consolidate the stereotypes that society has about female veterans. Yo, old woman is a song of freedom and self-confidence; to comfortable and affirmative old age. With the intention that between all of us we manage to live an elegant, relaxed and firm older age.
