The Helen Reddy song "I Am Woman (Hear Me Roar)"

No she didn't but i said "just as abusive", The Helen Reddy stereotype was the worst thing to happen to victims of female criminals, particularly children injured or murdered by female relatives or care-givers.

There are female cult leaders too, who have been just as abusive as Jim Jones or David Koresh. The notion "but there are fewer of them!" doesn't really work when you remember that that's largely because of societal pressures and socialisation of women. As that disappears, you will see more girls and women acting on their bad and evil impulses.

Marge Simpson being portrayed sympathetically is what i hate about Simpsons episodes. She forces her intellectually disabled husband and her children to adhere to her fringe evangelist sect of Christianity, is homophobic ("Boys kiss *girls*"), wants to turn Lisa (and Maggie) into soft and quiet girly girls that look good on the arm of a man of power We are supposed to believe that this ramshackle reactionary old trout was a Jimmy Carter Democrat? Pull the other one, it plays "Jingle Bells".

I grew up in the suburbs and even there most of my year came from the same primary school. Many of us were together from Grade One of Primary School to Year 12 of High School.

Samantha Reed Smith. A simple plane accident but there was a widespread belief in the USSR that it was criminal murder. It's interesting how deep paranoia ran in the Soviet Union.

In the episode Tiger! Tiger!, Season 1 Episode 18, the family dog Tiger disappears and the Bradys all chip in for a reward in the newspaper. The total (after everyone donates from each family member) is $42.76 - if you look at the value in 2019 the total is over $300 in today's value. This seems like a pretty good reward for a dog.

If you watch old shows, the incontinuities stick out like a sore thumb!

again, seeing feminism as being adhering to the Helen Reddy stereotype is not "feminist" or "empowering" either. It is the suffocating opposite of misogyny - the pedestal.

Depicting women as paragons of virtue isn't "female empowerment" either. Women can be just as vile and as cruel as men. LMAO at the idea that girls can't be Lord of the Flies types just because of the Helen Reddy stereotype...

Lime Street, starred Robert Wagner, and child peace activist/media celebrity Samantha Reed Smith. Here, from the Official Samantha Smith Website you tube channel is a clip from an episode of Lime Street. That blue satin dress Samantha is wearing towards the end of the footage? Let's just say my niece wonders how Sam could move her torso in it...

@catlover79 Oh, no, I'm religious like the Turnbaugh Twins and I'm really happy the Supreme Court recently ruled in favor of a Christian cross,.

@libgirl2 Brenda and Wendi Turnbaugh are two of the most beautiful women i have ever seen. They stated on their old joint website that they are Christians. I hope no one holds that against them. I lost friends when i found a spiritual/religious purpose. @catlover79

In one of my past lives, I was an English teacher. Maybe I am overly sensitive to this, but a number of prominent broadcasters still think they are being correct when they say "Joe went to the store with Jim and I." In that case, the correct pronoun (objective versus subjective) is ME. If you are not sure, take out the "Jim and" and use both words. You'll know right away. I am directing this to a particular NYC morning show host but hope it may be useful for others. You're (not your) welcome!!!

There are things you can only really do with a young female child in a television script, particularly in the 1950s and 60s, when gender differences were more distinct. I mean, for a start, if they had done a Christmas episode in 1965-66, they wouldn't have been able to do what they'd possibly do with Dodie and been able to put Ernie in a velvet dress, white stockings and Mary Janes. @Cobb Salad @Gemma Violet @MushMarch @SanDiegoInExile
