Mae West: Broads & Babes

MAE WEST once said, "A dame that knows the ropes isn't likely to get tied up!" — — and broads definitely know the ropes, observes Geveryl Robinson.
• • Clearly a steel magnolia herself, the engaging Ms. Robinson has more to say about broads and babes: Babes work at Fortune 500 companies, but broads own them. Broads are the female CEOs and business owners who have managed to shatter the glass ceiling wearing Chanel and Manolos because broads can kick butt with style. ...
• • Women like Mae West, Bessie Smith, and even Stagecoach Mary lived hard, loved hard and made no excuses and had no regrets. They were women who were comfortable in their own skin and who could do things their male counterparts could do
— — but only with a lot more finesse. ...
• • "85 Broads" is an organization with a network community of over 18,000 of the most powerful and intellectual women in the world, and "Great Old Broads for Wilderness," is a group of older women dedicated to wilderness growth and protection.
• • Modern day broads like Oprah and Martha (no last names necessary) Hillary Clinton, Condoleezza Rice and even media mogul Tyra Banks
— — a broad in babe's clothing — — can and should inspire women to release their inner broad to achieve the goals they set for themselves.
• • So women should BROADen their horizons because from Eleanor Roosevelt to Betty Ford, Queen Elizabeth to Queen Latifah, broads are proving and have proven that although a too tight thong may be physically limiting, as women, the only real limits we have are the ones we place on ourselves.
