Historical Woman Quiz
Nov. 8th, 2005 05:44 pmAnd here I thought the answers were leading to Queen Christina, who also dressed and acted like a man. . .
Take the quiz: "What Historic Woman Are You?"

Queen Hatshepsut
She was an Egyptian princess who wanted to be King. So she pasted on a fake beard and called herself King Hatshepsut. Everyone knew that she was a woman, but she had to pretend to be a man because Egyptians couldn't have a blatantly female ruler. You are strong, and will do whatever it takes to get what you want, just like Hatshepsut. Read more about her: http://i-cias.com/e.o/hatshep.htm
Clearly, however, Deborah Sampson is not Hatshepsut, even though she too dressed up like a man -- to fight in the Revolutionary War.
