Long time no see, I needed some advice and couldn't think of anywhere better, so hi again.
Last few days I've been talking to women who think they don't do enough because they aren't good at more forceful activism, or at theory/political stuff, and I wanted to show them that women throughout history have utilised all sorts of ways to create change.
Unfortunately my mind has gone blank, I have niggling memories that I can't quite recall, and thought maybe some of you would be able to help?
Particularly I'm looking for ways in which women made change even when it was hard or impossible for them to step outside socially accepted behaviour for women. So used behaviours/methods seen as more feminine than masculine, behaviours that might be seen as weak by some, but actually had some power.
Thank you!
