The Definition of a Yelderwoman (And How to Know if You Are One)

 I've coined a new phrase that I'd like to explain.

It's a Yelderwoman.

Yelderwoman. noun, singular. 1. An adult woman in age from 35-45. 2. A woman who is not quite middle-aged, but no longer young, but also young compared to those going through menopause. 3.
