I don't think this is true. I would name Marie Curie, Jane Austen, and George Eliot.

Same on Curie, but Hedy Lamarr and Mary Shelley.

That’s for admiration. I don’t want to “be like” any woman.

I immediately saw her point.

Yes, I would not want to give up my man parts. No way.

When I think back to the pictures I had on my wall as a kid, there were lots of photos of John McEnroe, Boris Becker, Arthur Ashe, Jimmy Connors, and Stefan Edberg, and maybe one photo of Martina Navratilova. Even in the culture of a sport where women were treated as equals, I still didn’t see many women I could look up to.

Many men were fans of Chris Evert and even more are fans of those young Russian women tennis players whose names they can't pronounce.

Seriously, though, men are capable of admiring women.

Toure must be going through a dry spell.

This isn't all that complicated. Men who identify as men, are not going to be interested in being like a woman, no matter how famous/brilliant/successful that woman is/was. They will instinctively desire to be like great MEN, because they themselves are a MAN.

For most feminine women who haven't been polluted by feminism, the same holds true. They instinctively admire and want to be like famous/brilliant/successful WOMEN. In some cases, being a "successful" woman might have little, if anything, to do with career accomplishments (gasp!).

This is just more identity politics b.s.

That’s a bias in myself that I’m just now noticing.

The only white person on his list is Elizabeth Warren, and she’s an Indian.

Just from experience on this site,

Somebody posts an account of a woman standing up for principles.
She is generally admired by all.

Mother Grace (Grace Murray Hopper -- she changed my life), Marie Curie, Margaret Thatcher, Audrey Hepburn... I could keep going.

But this author seems to be referring to only "women of color" so I guess those white chicks are out since there is nothing admirable about whites.

Yeah I’m gonna take seriously someone who admires Warren and M. Obama and talks about toxic masculinity.

Why would a man want to be ‘more like a woman’ ?!? EVER ?

Oh, I’m capable of admiring a woman.

I admire the top half, then the bottom half, then the middle half.

"Name three women who you are not related to who you admire and want to be more like."

Admiring someone does not necessarily mean you want to be "more like them."

The question is gibberish.

Stupid article. I would name Kari Lake, Kayleigh McEnany, and Emmylou Harris right off the top of my head of women I admire.

And I could come up with many, many, more.
