@enbyecho @asklemmy Well, geriatric pregnancies start at age 35, so it's really a flexible adjective. If you took it incorrectly, that's on you.
Based on the mixed responses I'm getting, it is not an established stereotype that older people write emails and text messages poorly. If I knew it was then I wouldn't have asked if others had similar experiences to mine in the first place.
