My kid wrote a really good paper about Stacey Abrams a few months back. She ended it with this:
"Women are the one resource you can't live without and the day we unite and say fuck you to men is nearing." I admire my kid. She is fearless.

Patty Wagstaff, we inspected an aircraft purchase for her many years ago and she was already a legendary pilot. But still thorough, competent but not egotistic. A real class act.

Seriously, I’ve admired Marie Curie since I first read about her in the 1960s. Others I learned about since include Catherine the Great, Cleopatra, and many others.
In my family I had a great aunt who became a doctor and practiced medicine in the 1930s and an aunt who became an attorney and practiced law from the 1950s through last decade. And others. |

"Not for the first time she reflected that there were many drawbacks to being a swordswoman, not the least of which was that men didn't take you seriously until you'd actually killed them, by which time it didn't really matter anyway."

Since we are continuing this today. There are two ladies that I have a great admiration for.
For simply being a great overall person and a great mother to children, although they are not mine. My girlfriend. She has had a rough life from the start and has become a very well adjusted adult, a great mother and I'm proud of her. I've watched her grow significantly over the years and continue to watch her expand her horizons. Also, I just happen to know another lady, that has struggled, lost and regained her ass, is one of the sweetest people I know and a great business woman. I'd also like to add a great gift giver, kind, considerate and the voice of reason to me on many days. I'll be somewhat vague here as not to draw too much attention. Laura, you're a great person and I admire the hell out of you. |

Thank you, sir. That isn't all but merely the biggest call-outs.
She is a human dynamo.

Mom. She was one of the kindest, non-judgmental people you'd ever want to meet.
