[the truth]

In light of the endless false claims of my so called anti female sexism , Id like to start a thread celebrating women and some of my favourites

In my part of the world, we saw the first ever female atlantic crossing, when amelie earheart flew a plane from america to a small welsh village called burry port....another is the great warrior princess gwenllian who was the first known female war leader fighting the normans 900 years ago ...the female cockle pickers of south wales made more money than their husbands too...the welsh had laws for equality over 500 years ago, but were invaded and the laws overriden by english laws

As for actresses, well has there been a greater legend that maureen ohara? I think not. stunning, feisty, talented, passionate , eloquent, honest ....betty davis, smart , forthright, intelligent, original...ingrid bergman...oh boy, classy, smart, versatile, elegant, funny , mysterious and drop dead gorgeous

singers the list is endless, from aretha franklin, to barbara streisand, to dolly parton, etta james, tina turner, bonnie tyler, diana ross, joplin, warwick, karen carpenter, blondie, ella fitzgerald, nina simeone, dusty springfield, annie lennox,

sports stars, one of my faves the amazing steffi graf, serena and martina navrat...nadia comaneci the greatest gymnast, jayne torville, greatest ever skater, annika sorenstam and laura davies the 2 greatest female golfers, florence griffith joyner, paula radcliffe, dame kelly holmes, tanni grey, jess ennis, vivky pendleton , nicola adams etc etc

literary giants, range from jane austen to agatha christie , to enid blyton, mary shelley, charlotte bronte, to harper lee, jk rowling to danielle steele to virginia wolf , anna frank, barbara cartland , emily dickinson and beatrix potter...etc

political figures, span the centuries...from our own queens elizabeth and victoria, russian empress catherine the great, going all the way back to BC with cleopatra, in recent decades... israeli PM golda meir, legendary pacifists and spiritual leaders, princes grace kelly, ang san suu indira ghandi, mother teresa, Diana princess of wales etc etc there have been 100s of female political leaders across the world and many are viewed as strong leaders, especially those I have outlined

But outside of the fame and fortune what of all those women who volunteer their to help those who need help, missionary or charity work, help with groups that deal with mental health, depression and the network of disabled organizations across the country and the western world...


These are the types of people and the types of stories young men and women need to hear about...positive strong people who give their all and seek to make the world a better place. This is what inspires the next generation

I salute all these women
