What if Snow White's "evil" stepmother was just a perimenopausal woman grieving her fading beauty?
Society puts a heavy emphasis on beauty for women. So, naturally, how we look becomes a part of our identity. As we age, and we're no longer "young and pretty," it can be a blow to our ego, a loss of how we've seen ourselves.
It's a first world problem, for sure, but can be tough for many women. We can grieve the loss - and learn to recognize the real beauty is still inside.
