I actually think men and women contributed to histery in equal parts, but as you said, we often hear about the men rather then the women. Though there are noticable exception.
Besides, if we can still discover the stories of these women, some of whom have lived hundreds of years ago, it means that history is not lost, but merely hidden.

Thanks again for sharing 🙂

Women have been on the front for much longer than people realize!

It’s great to meet you. I feel passionately about sharing women’s stories. I’ve always had a sense that it’s not that women haven’t done anything but because their stories have not been told. I’m looking forward to your stories and sharing the journey.

Hurrah for women writers – and the stories yet to be told!

Juliet 🙂

I love this on so many levels. We have so much to learn from the women who came before us, and we don’t always learn about women in history (in every field) who had such a profound impact. I am also an advocate for sharing women’s stories – our stories heal ourselves and help others. Thank you for sharing this insightful article.
