Female Role Models

From "The Top Ten Traits of a Female Role Model"

I have written a number of posts that feature female role models I think deserve more attention. Typically I name a few when I notice a man saying or doing something profoundly sexist.  We spend a lot of time tearing people down, but I don't think we spend enough time celebrating people who serve as a good example for young people.  Take a look at the posts to learn about these amazing people and what they do.
