“What would Mrs. Robinson do?” This is the question at the heart of the Mrs. Robinson Society (MRS), a club launched earlier this year in SF by 15 savvy married women fed up with the stigma attached to the so-called trappings of marriage and getting older. Although extramarital flings with young men, à la The Graduate, are not necessarily on the agenda, the Mrs. Robinson Society does set out to debunk prevailing derogatory stereotypes, from the “cougar” to the MILF. Politics aside, the now-100-strong women of MRS (which has since opened up to singles who share the same values) are dedicated to having some empowering fun—whether that takes the form of a luxurious, guilt-free workday lunch or means always having a signature (and strong, of course) cocktail order at the ready.
