I have been travelling on the bus quite a lot in the last four months, and have noticed something quite interesting: Young women don't sit beside me.
Mine is usually the last shared seat to fill. My seat companion is most likely to be another older woman. If not her, then a man, irrespective of his age. Only when there are no other seats on the bus will a young woman share mine.
Why?
Is it because I look grumpy? Is it because I remind her of her mother - Will I tell her to party less and study more? Is she afraid that old age is contagious?
Hmmmm ....
