Invisible Men?

I shouldn’t be surprised, and yet I was, at the number of men who identified with the invisibility of older women in Old Bean’s Last Fantasy. “Once you retire from your business or practice,” one 67-year-old man told me, “it’s like you never existed. No matter how successful you were in the past, you are now invisible. Younger people you used to work with no longer see you.”

Any comments out there from “invisible” men?
