In addition, since the 1960s, women have almost invariably outstripped their male counterparts by 6 years. Yet retired women receive an average pension that is 28 percent lower than that of retired men. At 75, widows outnumber widowers 4 to 1, and at 90 and over, this figure is 5 to 1, which is a major cause of social isolation. Women face the combined effects of sexism and ageism. Ageing is therefore not a neutral factor and poses specific problems for women. However, over and above the injustices they encounter, these “old women and citizens » bear the full brunt of the responsibilities of the pivotal generation—those of helping their children, grandchildren, and their own parents.
