Welcome to #LisaDurden’s #WomensHistoryMonthMoment: Malala Yousafzai, born July 12, 1997, is a Pakistani activist for female education and the youngest #NobelPrize laureate, who at age 15, survived an assassination attempt by the Taliban. On October 9, 2012, a masked gunman boards #MalalaYousafzai’s school bus and shoots her in the head, neck and shoulder for fighting against the Taliban's attempts to stop female education. After multiple surgeries and months of rehabilitation, Malala got discharged from the hospital in Birmingham, U.K. Because of her bravery, the #UnitedNations declares July 12th “#MalalaDay.” #ClapForThat!!

#FlashBackFriday: If my former #Gynocologist, Dr. Yvette Bridges never said, "ok Lisa, so when are we gonna do this surgery?" I would have continued to suffer from years and years of heavy bleeding and severe pain during my menstrual cycle, due to uterine fibroid tumors, which eventually became so bad it prevented me from being able to work and totally screwed up my sex life!! I was super scared to go under the knife, but after Dr. Bridges brilliantly performed the #Myomectomy to remove 14 fibroids from my uterus, I woke up on a Morphine drip feeling like a new woman!! That was 15 YEARS AGO and I never looked back. #ClapForThat!! Living in denial ain't even a little bit cute! #OMGIsItOnlyMe??

At 14, #ZinaGarrison won the national girls' 18s title and in 1981, she won both the Wimbledon and #USOpen junior titles and was ranked number 1 in the World. #ClapForThat!! Unfortunately, Zina began suffering from the eating disorder #Bulimia when she was 19, because she was constantly ridiculed by the tennis community for being “too fat;” giving her a very negative body image. The pressure of being labeled 'the next #AltherGibson’ only made things worse. After leaving tennis, she founded the #ZinaGarrisonFoundation for the Homeless in 1988, and the #Zina Garrison All-Court Tennis Program, which supports inner-city tennis in Houston, in 1992.

Welcome to Lisa Durden’s #WomensHistoryMonthMoment: In 1967, Katherine Switzer became the first woman to officially enter the #BostonMarathon. It had been an all-male event for 70 years. The ignorant thinking at that time was if a woman did anything arduous, we were gonna get big legs, grow hair on our chest, turn into a man and our uterus would fall out. LAUGHABLE!! Katherine decided to crash the Marathon by signing the entry form KV Switzer, so they couldn’t tell by her name that was a woman. Then during the run, some abusive race director by the name of #JockSimple had the #BrassBalls to grab her and scream for her to, “get the hell out of my race and give me those numbers!!” Although that #MOTHERCLUCKER man-handled #KatherineSwitzer by trying to rip her numbers off, her husband who was running as well, slammed his punk a_s to the ground and she chose to continue the race because she wanted to send the message that women were capable of running without their uteruses falling out. Switzer finished the marathon in 4 hours 20 minutes. Her bravery changed women’s sports and in 1972, five years after Katherine Switzers’s historic run, women were officially allowed to compete in the #BostonMarathon. She also became an activist for female runners successful campaigned to include the women’s marathon in the #OlympicGames. #ClapForThat!!

The product was very popular in the secretarial trade and by 1979, she sold Liquid Paper to the #GilletteCorporation for $47.5 million dollars in 1979. #ClapForThat!!
