So halfamoon is currently celebrating all the wonderful women in fiction and last year I wanted to do my part but got cold feet and never finished my project. This year I am asking for much needed aid. HELP ME, FRIENDS. YOU ARE MY ONLY HOPE.

I have always had a soft spot for the quote "Well-behaved women seldom make history" by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich and I wanted it on an icon.

PROBLEM: which rad lady do I give it to? SOLUTION: ALL OF THEM!!

This is where you come in. Obviously I haven't watched all of the shows, read all of the books or seen all of the movies. So if you'd like to nominate a female character, leave a picture in the comments and PRESTO! You will have an icon before Valentines Day!

Remember: THERE IS NO WRONG WAY TO BE A GIRL!

You can post multiple pictures of the same person. Perhaps one where they are displaying characteristics more commonly associated with males, such as fighting or holding a weapon. You can also post pictures where the character is displaying more traditional feminine traits, as these are just as praise-worthy!

Obviously I will never cover EVERYONE and will probably leave someone out accidentally but hopefully, with your help, we can showcase as many women as possible.
