Rosa Louise McCauley Parks (1913 – 2005) was an African American civil right’s activist and seamstress whom the U.S. Congress dubbed the “Mother of the Modern-Day Civil Rights Movement”. Parks is famous for her refusal on 1 December 1955, to obey bus driver James Blake’s demand that she relinquish her seat to a white man. Her subsequent arrest and trial for this act of civil disobedience triggered the Montgomery Bus Boycott, one of the largest and most successful mass movements against racial segregation in history, and launched Martin Luther King, Jr., one of the organisers of the boycott, to the forefront of the civil rights movement. Her role in American history earned her an iconic status in American culture, and her actions have left an enduring legacy for civil rights movements around the world. Feel free to add your own important woman from history.

Bloody Mary was born a spooky ghost who haunted bathroom mirrors. However, after going to ghost culinary school, she went on to launch a successful franchise of cocktail drinks that taste like pizza sauce.

Marie Curie (1867 – 1934) was a Polish scientist who won a Nobel prize in both Chemistry and Physics. She made ground-breaking work in the field of Radioactivity, enabling radioactive isotypes to be isolated for the first time. During the First World War, Curie developed the practical use of X-Rays; she also discovered two new elements, polonium and radium. Her pioneering scientific work was made more remarkable because of the discrimination which existed against women in science at the time. She was the first female professor at the University of Paris and broke down many barriers for women in science

Me. I shared memes with others and was a real influencer in the shaping of the internet and young minds and will be until my untimely death. At the hands of a male, most likely, because they are most important for murdering people (Hitler and Stalin and Genghis Khan are the most popular guys vs some vaccines creators). That's the real #redpill.

Seo Ji-soo AKA "ToSsGirL" Seo Ji-soo (born 21 May 1985) is a former professional StarCraft player from South Korea who played under the alias ToSsGirL[1] (Terran, STX Soul) and referred to as the "Queen of Terran".[2] On, July 17, 2012, Seo Ji-soo officially retired[3] from pro gaming and she is now running a cybermall called 'tossgirl' Tossgirl was first introduced to Starcraft by her father in 1999, and she and her sister Seo Ji Seung "ZergGirl" both started to play avidly. Her continued practise has been attributed to her wanting to compete and win against her sister, and after accomplishing this, Tossgirl switched races from Protoss to Terran. She continued to play StarCraft and was fascinated by the professional tournaments on T.V. At 16, after seeing BoxeR play on TV, she decided that she wanted to become a professional gamer. When she told her dad, he said he wished he had never introduced her to StarCraft. However, she continued to play and would sneak out at night to play in local tournaments around Seoul. In 2001 at age 17, ToSsGirl qualified for the female WCG tournament and showed good standings in preliminary rounds of other tournaments. The next year, ToSsgirl got into her first major competition which was hosted by Ghem TV. She was able to get into the top 8 twice and by doing so she became qualified to receive her professional gaming License. From there, she was picked up by the STX Soul professional gaming team where she has remained since.[4] In 2003, she was able to win the gameTV female league and also made headlines by beating FreeMura, the first OSL winner, in minorleague (he then retired). She subsequently won the gameTV female league in 2004 and in 2005. In 2005, Tossgirl also beat [NC]YellOw in the WCG preliminary round.[4] At this time, [NC]YellOw was considered one of the top professional gamers. After the disappearance of female leagues in late 2005, Tossgirl has continued to play in regular tournaments with limited success. Her most prominent victories in recent years have been beating Modern 2-0 in the GomTv Classic, the first win by a female in a KESPA sanctioned tournament and in 2009 she was able to beat Max in the MSL Preliminary round. In 2009, she played in e-Stars Seoul StarCraft Heritage League 2009. After a dramatic loss in first game against Yellow, she defeated Reach in her second game,[4] which was a substantial upset. In the 2010 Spring OSL preliminaries, ToSsGirL beat GoRush, one of the top players from 2001-2004. However, she later lost to Stats in the preliminaries. Ji-soo was considered one of the 15 highest paid female professional video gamers in the world.[7] She retired in July 2012.[8]

quote:Madame Ching or Ching Shih (1775–1844) (simplified Chinese: 郑氏; traditional Chinese: 鄭氏; pinyin: Zhèng Shì; Cantonese: Jehng Sih; "widow of Zheng"), also known as Cheng I Sao (simplified Chinese: 郑一嫂; traditional Chinese: 鄭一嫂; "wife of Zheng Yi"), was a prominent pirate in middle Qing China, who terrorized the China Sea in the early 19th century. She personally commanded over 300 junks manned by 20,000 to 40,000 pirates—men, women, and even children. She entered into conflict with the existing empires of the time, such as the British Empire, the Portuguese Empire, and the Qing dynasty. She was one of the few pirate captains to retire from piracy and is considered to be the most successful pirate in history. Pththya-lyi fucked around with this message at 23:59 on Jul 26, 2017 |

Ada Lovelace. You probably know her as the "OMG the first computer programmer was a lady!!!" blurb you saw on a Facebook post at one point, and that is true... but the whole story is much more interesting. See Ada's dad was famous too- she was the daughter of Lord Byron, the great English poet. He abandoned his family to go fight in the Greek war of independence and as a result his ex got reeeeeally vindictive and decided her daughter would never ever learn about that bullshit art and culture crap Lord Deadbeat was all about. So the kid had math ground into her head from day one and the rest is history. So yeah, whenever you run a computer program, remember where the whole idea originated: men abandoning their responsibilities and women holding grudges. History is fun!

Lawrence of Arabia, Jaws, Bonnie and Clyde, Goodfellas, and Pulp Fiction were all edited by women (Anne V. Coates, Verna Fields, Dede Allen, Thelma Schoonmaker, and Sally Menke, respectively). Also, most editors and writers during the silent era were women.

They must have let some of the concubines live in a garden or something. They probably did something cool with their time. Some set up religions and polyandrous societies like the male concubines have done more prominently so far.
