Tammy Peterson is becoming a Catholic. She will be received into the Church at Easter. Any school rebranding their house system and looking for a contemporary role model to inspire their girls would do well to dump Thunberg into the recycling box of history and open instead “Peterson House”. Why? Because in Tammy we have a true female role model.
In 1985 Annie Lennox released a song called “Sisters are doing it for themselves”. “This is a song,” Lennox sang, “to celebrate the conscious liberation of the female state”. It’s a song to “mothers, daughters and their daughters” to say that “the inferior sex got a new exterior. We got doctors, lawyers and politicians too” because women are “coming out of the kitchen, standing on their own two feet and ringing their own bells”.
