I'm ok with Senior.. Mature sounds dumb, but I don't really care.. Elderly does bug me, though.

I never liked labels, ever since I was young. Once, in my late forties, a doctor wrote in the report that I was a "pleasant middle-aged woman" and I had a hard time seeing myself as middle-aged (although I liked that he said I was pleasant, lol). I was active, doing aerobics, playing tennis, and felt as if I was in my thirties. I had not considered myself middle-aged. Now,years later, at age 65, like others here, the discounts make the label of "senior citizen" more palatable. I do know one thing, though - I would LOVE to be called a centenarian one day...

At my age of 92 I class myself as antique.

I'll settle for "Old Yeller".... as my oldest sister nicknamed me. I am olive skinned.... hence the yeller.

Having read all the above, and having commented as "elderly", I think I prefer "senior".

I'm still getting up there. Whatever that means,
