i am thinking.... raquel welch, cause of the oddity. she made a quote the other day i loved.

and then judd, though we love her.

even though it may not be a mainstream feminist, and all may not go with the quote or whatever, but a feminist perspective.

3. I think that kind of thing is better suited for individual threads about inspirational women.

I don't often read pinned stuff, so my first instinct would be to ignore the list if it were posted as a pinned thing.

Maybe a thread with a header like this ***"women who inspire us"*** that we could keep posting in to keep it kicked up? Just a thought.

with both you and Blue Iris. I rarely read pinned threads. I like the idea of just bumping it up when we run across inspiring stories of women. I going to close this thread,as I now think it's something we don't really need or want. Thanks for all the good opinions though!
