If you answered mostly A:

Congratulations, you’re Betty Friedan

You’re bold, saucy, and passionate about your interests. Whether you’re an artist, a writer, or an activist, you invest your whole self into your creative projects. The original Betty Friedan’s devotion to her work and her causes made her one of the most powerful voices of Western feminism. Her book The Feminine Mystique is often regarded as one of the most influential books of the 20th century, for is it responsible for igniting the revolutionary second-wave feminism movement in the United States.

If you answered mostly B:

Congratulations, you’re Florence Nightingale

You’re a courageous humanitarian. If there were more socially conscious movers and shakers like you in this world, the world would truly be a better place. You’ve inherited the spirit of the founder of modern nursing who was celebrated for her heroic care of soldiers during the Crimean War (1853-1856). Florence went onto to promote her revolutionary vision of nursing when she established her own school at St. Thomas Hospital in London. Florence might have been more of a saint than a hero because transforming health care wasn’t enough of a contribution to society for her. Florence was also a powerful writer and impacted Victorian England with her Notes on Nursing and feminist essays like Cassandra that protested against women’s helpless social roles.

If you answered mostly C:

Congratulations, you’re Simone de Beauvoir

You’re as brazen as you are brilliant. You crusade with your wits and you have the mind with the capacity to change everyone else’s. Simone’s incisive intellect and literary imagination kept her very busy in her life time. Simone wrote highbrow novels, philosophical treatises, and engaged in political activism. The culmination of Simone’s great talents is the most important feminist work of the 20th century The Second Sex. This the book that starting giving Betty and her friends ideas.

If you answered mostly D:

Congratulations, you’re Joan of Arc

You’re strong and you have the fortitude and the empowering strength that can get you and those around you through anything. The woman you identify with isn’t just an extraordinary woman, but a universal symbol of great perseverance. Joan was living the life of a normal French peasant girl until she claimed she had a vision in which God compelled her to help Charles VII rescue France from the repressive grasp of English sovereignty and the enduring Hundred Years’ War. The displaced King was intrigued when Joan came to him, and he sent the ardent girl warrior to help relieve the siege of Orléans. Joan was successful and enjoyed a succession of victories that led to Charles VII’s coronation at Reims. We all know tragic the end that propelled Joan into sainthood: captured by English allies, handed over to her enemies, put on trial, judged by a pro-English Bishop, accused of heresy for namely cross-dressing, and condemned to a dramatic death by being burned at the stake at the age 19. Like many powerful women living in a time of archaic and cruel despotism, she was too much of a perplexing and subversive threat to live a long life.
