    ahah...thus my theory. What would people think of a Lesbian bumpersticker if they didn't know it was a Lesbian bumpersticker.

    Hayestreet,

    As I told bobrek, I said "most" not "all." You guys are just wrong. Most women were consider bad or saintly through history, whereas Good ole Boys who did what they were told made history all the time.

    Further, your list is merely currently famous. I'm talking famous that will last through history. That's what the bumper sticker said, and my opening post. Spare me your ability to do a google search. I mean for every one you list I have many Rosa Park's to list.

    On a side note, why didn't you or anyone else here mention Barbara Jordan? Was she a bad girl?

    On a side note, you lost the "How do I start a new thread without misspelling its title?" competition ;)...

    So since Susan B Anthony fought for women's rights she is considered a "bad girl"? Does that mean that every man who fought in the American Revolution was a bad boy (e.g George Washington)?

    Women are difficult because they don't know what the hell they want.

    All famous people fight for something or accomplish something. Do you not see how Susan B Anthony's revolution was considered troublemaking in her time in her country relative to George Washington's revolution was to the patriots.

    Oh well. Nevermind then.

    Your argument is simply one of perspective. Susan B. Anthony is not viewed as a troublemaker now, though she may have been in her time.

    George Washington wasn't seen as a troublemaker by us, but he certainly was by the British. It's all dependent on your point of view.

    ooh, but the bumpersticker is one of perspective in time and place, Mrs JB. Like you say, it is all about perspective. Your perspective is in your time. My is their time and place.

    As an example of time and place perspective, Why were women brutally killed then later Sainted?

    Labels are so difficult, yet the English language revolves around them.
