While the dudes of history were pretty awesome (or spectacularly horrible) in their own right, the ladies that were left out were badass.

This is an attempt to grow my own knowledge of strong, courageous, weak, scared, scarred, and imperfect women that history has forgotten about.

Check out the submit and ask features! Submit the names of badass women from history that you want me and other people to know about and submit stories of the badass women in your life!

Bad-Ass Woman of the Day: Nina Turner 

Ohio State Senator Nina Turner is one bad-ass lady. Turner introduced Senate bill 307 that requires men who want a prescription for viagra to go see a sex therapist, get a cardiac stress test, and to get a signed affidavit from their sexual partner. Here, she insists that her bill is just as serious as the menz who introduce bullcrap legislation such as Ohio’s ridiculous heartbeat bill, “personhood” amendments, and transvaginal ultrasound bills. *pumps fist in solidarity*
