Interesting piece.
I'd be interested to know how magazines define strong women. I'm a strong woman. I also not the kind of woman who is inspirational to others or who tries to be inspirational to others. I have no interest in status, leadership, or any of the attributes that I suspect these publications are looking for.
To me, being a strong woman means ahving the courage to keep going when the chips are down. It means sticking to doing what is right despite the cost. I don't think there are that many strong women (or strong men) around.
it's difficult to be willing to stand alone
