Just as the times have changed, girls, so, too has the Spinster. When it comes to the Millennial Age, this photo says it all. The Millennial Spinster simply does not give a shit about ANYTHING!!!!!!!!! No one is going to tell her how to dress or behave, because she is so fucking self-absorbed. She is the complete opposite of the repressed spinsters of yore. And, if a man comes along, she does not submit; she takes charge!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now, New Age Spinsters are something else. They are not as empowered as their Millennial contemporaries, but unlike their counterparts of an earlier era, they have decided to make the best of it. Like staying home, and having tea parties for themselves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then, there is the Ultimate New Age Spinster, where caution is thrown to the winds! Like the heroine of "Spinster OF The Parish," which is one book I would LOVE to read. These women often have relations with ministers, therapists, any important male authority figure. As Grace Slick said, at Woodstock, "It's a new dawn!"
Or, this final selection, which demonstrates today's New Age Spinster is not about being an old maid aunt, and playing bridge with your nephew or niece (who were spinsters in training!) like it used to be.
Spinsterhood--it isn't about Jane Austen, anymore!
