Midlife for Women: A New Perspective

Ski Hunter and Martin Sundel

The middle years for women are often described as being a time of increased risks for emotional, physical, and financial problems. Although some of these problems are realistic, studies have found that many women, especially middle- and upper-class White women, expe rience a better quality of life at this time. This mixed situation calls for an alternative perspective on midlife women to counter myths and stereotypes and to acknowledge that sexism, racism, and poverty hinder midlife women of color from improving the quality of their lives.
