Well I'd personally maybe not put hollwood celebs into my top 5, but there is some who are certainly great women.

Cool for you. Some women have careers out side of being 'Hollywood celebs'

Arrakis

Well celebs are mostly high privileged people, not saying what they do isn't important, but given they are famous and loved it's easier for them to start a movement or a cause than for non-famous everyday women. Women like a rosa parks or a marie curie are more inspirational to me, just that.

Cool story. Didn't realise we have to diminish who other people chose. Good to know.

Everyone chooses the people they want to choose. And having a little conversation about why or giving examples doesn't hurt anyone. Stay cool people

And it would be boring if we all thought the same way

I understand very well what you mean Gabriel and I haven't thought about my list yet but I could easily pick 5 inspirational Hollywood ladies but also 5 "everyday" ladies. Or a mixture, don't know yet. Anyways it's up to each own and how you interpret "most inspirational"

Arrakis

I didn‘t say you shouldn‘t choose them if they inspire you. I just say why I would not chose this or that person, but that was just my opinion and I‘d never expect you to share it.

But I‘d really say you need to stop taking everything so personal.

Arrakis

Heda_Khaleesi

such a crazy movie - meaning this positive

Arrakis

Period dramas are always good.

no Oscar for Rachel but i think the winners are also very Oscar worthy.

The rage I feel.she was robbed

Arrakis

Who were the other contestants in her category?

Edit looked it up, Haven't seen the movie but probably she was robbed i don't know, but I can also understand the academy's decision to mostly have people of colour win this year, they probably didn't always chose the best, but the representation was necessary given in previous years non-white actors, writers, etc have often been snubbed, there was a lot of anger some even wanted to boycott the oscars if there is no change. Well I support the decision they made, but also understand that some people were disappointed this year too.
