@SherBeareth @sarahhbickerton ah, it's Carrie Fisher as General Leia Organa.
:)
@SherBeareth @sarahhbickerton It is great. The alt text really needs to note that this is Carrie Fisher in the role of General Leia Organa, leader of the resistance. It's not a generic "woman of mature years" 🙂

These memes are fun counterpoints to the haters who ignore old cis women who aren't breeders. They are still pretty conventionally hot femme-presenting.

I'm going to raise the stakes + nominate presumably postmenopausal *Odo* from Ursula K. LeGuin, "The Day Before the Revolution," a prequel story to the anarchist novel, *The Dispossessed*. As readers, we don't know whether she was a GILF.

Probably the best thing about ep 7-9 is the way the series (ok, well, 7-8 anyway) takes aging seriously, in all its power and complexity.
