(Do not worry WW oglers, the bosom is still, well, very much there.)<\/p>\n<p>Okay, I loved Wonder Woman when I was growing up. There were so few strong images of women, women who were total heroes (heroines back then). We found our own super-role models. My Aunt Rose, my mother Henrietta, Martha Graham, Dorothy Parker, Mother Jones, Madame Curie, Rosa Parks, Billie Holiday, Eleanor Roosevelt, Amelia Earhart, etc. were all on my list.<\/p>\n<p>Who were the women you looked up to as a child&#8211;regardless of your age now? Who were the women you admired if you came of age in the 1970s or 80s or 90s? Who did you admire if you came of age before WW II? This question is not directed at women only.
