I saw. A superhero today.
That’s right
a superhero of female gender towering over her male opponent.
A superhero who proved to the boys, girls, men, women in the auditorium that superheroes look like female Science teachers, former Olympic athlete Science teachers whom when you pass, you may easily forget–is mighty, mighty enough to pick you and your neighboring passersby up over her head and spin you like a top
in. a. heartbeat.
Like I said…
Today
I was in the presence of the powerful Ms. T, this is how her students refer to her, but the truth is they, we, you, all of us should call her by true name:
Super. Hero.
For anyone who can show my female advisees that being a girl does not only mean you shop at Sephora and pose for cute pics Instagram filtered with a million likes online.
No.
Being a girl means-
Strength
Courage
Power
And today, Ms. T, excuse me, Ms. Superhero, she told me that and
I believe her!
