Today's awesome woman is Betty Friedan. She was many, many things (including Aquarius) but none of those things was "dull". Changing the world didn't look like it was easy or fun, but she did it anyway. As a stay-at-home-mom, I owe her a great debt. Without her, I might have been afraid to ask for "my time" and "my stuff" because housewives weren't supposed to need or want anything for themselves. Thank you, Betty Friedan, for saving women from drowning in their own mystique.
