"Think of a man... and take away reason and accountability"...
Just kidding.
But seriously though, real women are complex and full of surprises. They can be a frail damsel on the surface but a crisis reveals her true strength. And vice versa.
I know a gal who's career Army. She's built like a man, stands like a man, is rude, crude, abrupt, physically intimidating. She is every negative stereotype you might have about NCOs. But she's a soldier, and given the appropriate opportunity she wouldn't think twice about killing an enemy. And yet, I know this gal through my quilt group. She quilts, crochets and knits. She loves bright colors, 1930's-era pastels and lace. She makes dolls (and talks to them while she's at it). Oh and she loves manicures. Complex! And I love her to pieces.
