AdmiralZephyr 05/20/17 11:10:44 PM #1:	Who would you say are the 10 or so most famous women in history? I honestly can't say that I remember a hell of a lot of women popping up in my history books (and I majored in history); at least not in prominent roles. This is a list I threw together, I probably missed someone big, but... Amelia Earhart Anne Frank Catherine the Great Cleopatra Jeanne d'Arc Marie Antoinette Marie Curie Pocahontas Sacagawea Virgin Mary Rosa Parks might be able to squeak in there, maybe over Amelia Earhart. --- darkx remembers his friend, GrapefruitKing.

I'm not sure I think we can apply that same question to the Virgin Mary as well Yeah, I wasn't going to comment on Mary as a list point. In terms of overall fame, yes she would be a top ten if you counted her. It's the counting her itself that gets iffy. As to your other point, I agree. I don't really want to pass judgment on the list itself as the concept of the list is nuanced enough without considering the social impact of it, but the fact that you can land maybe two non-white women on it is pretty sad. But you got Cleopatra, and strangely no other major female world leaders in history outside of Europe.
