This perpetual whining with hands out for entitlement parts just irks me no end. It gives the really strong, smart, middle aged woman a bad name

I agree. Why don't some of them write their own screenplays with parts of women in their 40+'s and pursue it from there?

Doesn't make these middle aged women sound very "stong or smart" with their insistent whining.

Considering that most (those that can read) are reading drivel from the paperback rack at the till in the local mini-mega-mart, this surprises you?

Melanie Griffith is still a babe, Sharon Stone is a sellout, and I could NOT care less about the rest of the whiners.
