Her charity is called The Fistula Foundation and it's one of the charity options on Amazon Smile :-)

Badass

Am I reading it right she worked 26hrs, walked the dog and had a presentation? I am not sure that is healthy, regardless of being pregnant. I am not sure that is something to be proud of either.

Oh my god I love her she si one of my idols!!!

As a woman living in the #NZHellhole (I’ll stop making jokes about that when anti-elimination people stop calling us a dictatorship), seeing a certain person on that list made my day. :)

She deserves more credit! Fascinating woman, very smart.

I had the honor to meet Jane Goodall. Incredible person. I don't have the words to describe what it felt like to be in her presence.

Saw her live on her last tour. One of the best rock and roll shows I ever saw. btw-she wrote "Blue Suede Shoes"

She seems like she is indestructible, the number of health problems she has overcome.

Definitely at the top.

She's the Lioness of West Sumatera who fought against taxes levied by the Dutch East Indies Company on the population of Manggopoh. Despite still nursing an infant, she successfully led the rebellion, resulting in her husband being exiled to Manado while she was imprisoned with her child.

Great woman, they tried to leave her out as a Nobel Prize winner but she got it, twice.

YES! If I can't dance, it's not my revolution!

for an oil and gas company...

That's so sweet. I appreciate that a politician so young can be someone's hero.

Sakine Cansiz was a co-founder of the Kurdish PKK after she'd been imprisoned and tortured by the Turkish police. She was shot dead in Paris, France in 2013, a case that remains unsolved.

;) Beverly Cleary (;

I don't think she's your hero if you don't even know her name... Lyudmila Pavlichenko.

I love your name

Doctor Who fan, Kieran? =)

"Freedom is always the freedom of dissenters." -Rosa Luxemburg, a wisdom that has been forgotten. Nowadays, thought crimes are getting prosecuted, sometimes in some countries in a court of law and very often by news media and on social media sites. Intolerance towards dissenters is constantly growing.

Yes, but it's nice to say at least the names of some of them in order to visibilize them. Because men are always found in google (or duckduckgo, or wherever) by their name while other genres are "a woman", "women", "they", "anonymous" or so.

but, Thatcher?

She was a ruthless defender of the wealthy and the powerful, an ennemy of the working class, gays, women and anyone who wasn't english. She was evil incarnate and the day she died made me happier than I had been in a long time. I wish there was a god so she could be roasting in hell.

Monarchy am I right? :D

Glad to see at least that all the Thatcher ones are getting down voted. Honestly, WTF???
