Well, personally, I kind of want to slay the dragon.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Best. Baby. Pose. Ever. Mostly because it means they are DEEPLY asleep.

What about Ada Lovelace, lisah?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Working for equality is an interesting question -- Lise Meitner was great, but I think she was more just doing her own work.

More recent history (I KNOW): Geraldine Ferraro?

Because books.

Nilly baby! Oh, man. So sweet. Also, Nilly! I love it when you come by.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Pi Baby! That's an awful lot of cute.

And FAQ Update! Congrats, Jon.

Because books.

Yeah, lisah, if she doesn't has to focus on specific women, she could write about women jockeys, or women in auto racing, or other women like the one Cash mentioned.

Ann, that's a ferret.

lisah, the more I think about your question, the less I feel qualified to answer. But here are a few thoughts.

I suspect most students will focus on gender equality. So someone like Rosa Parks or Harriet Tubman might be a slightly unexpected choice.

Maybe Pat Schroeder. I don't hear about her much today, but she was quite a voice in the House.

Frances Wright and Sojourner Truth, public speakers (pro-free love and anti-slavery, respectively) in an era when women simply didn't engage in public speaking.

How about Swanee Hunt? [link] She's current.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Congrats on the FAQ Update!

Yay for Nilly baby! So incredibly cute.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Nilly! Look at that, you made a tiny person. So cute! He has a mouth made for smiling.
