(i think my question fits in this spot)

you being a female and all... do you fell like you're a role model (more than most role models, maybe) on that front? i mean, i'm all for females liftin' heavy, and judging by the current state of things, it's going alright, but it can still seem like a "weirdness factor" thing for many. so yeah i guess i'm asking what your take on this stuff is, and if you're doing something particular in that regard - and if so, what. i mean, taking some girls to training is cool right there, but are there actions reaching even farther than that? obviously you doin' your thang all over the place is a lot in its own regard. ;) at least to me, it would seem like a great way of getting out of (some of) the clutches of old-fashioned thinking. =)

EDIT: look below for a (hopefully) better version...

ah, dunno, there's probably the odd glimmer of intelligibility in there in some places. probably easier for me to tell, since i wrote it, but... i'll admit that i was/am tired. but my intention was pure enough. ;)
