Send us a textTo a woman who didn't suffer fools gladly, she was a force to be reckoned with. I applaud her tenacity and flair for being outspoken in a world when it was hard to speak openly as a woman. But it was in a time when being an outspoken woman was frowned upon. And she did shack up with a man 25 years her senior while he was still married to another woman, with whom he had fathered seven children. However, if she'd been a man doing this at the time, would there still be the dramatics associated with her?Listen, it's a good one!https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=208886333861966Stead, Thistle Yolette (1902-1990).
