Maka-forever kayong dalawa, akala ninyo, kayo na talaga ang para sa’y-isa. Kung makapag-landian, wagas!
Pero ngayon naghiwalay kayo, ano ka ngayon?

Fresher than a Motherfucker

What a damned cool idea—The Thinking Girls’ Treasury of Dastardly Dames. It’s all about women history has termed “bitches” or “mean girls,” so to speak, and analyzing their motives—were they really so bad? Such a fun way to strip away the demonization of powerful, take-no-prisoners women throughout the centuries…
This series of historical accounts profiles strong women who took extraordinary measures to achieve and maintain power—including murder, deception, and black magic—examining the women’s reputations in the context of their eras. Just how wicked were they? The books allow readers to decide for themselves if these infamous ladies were indeed heartless and evil or simply out of touch and making the most of their circumstances.
Our very own heroine deserves one of these, she’s not as popular as the others but she’s one great woman in Philippine history, presenting,
Teresa Magbanua “The Bitch of Bisayas”
(Let’s not use the negative connotation of bitch, but after reading the description, you’ll think she’s one badass barrio girl)
She’s from a wealthy family in Iloilo and had a teaching degree but since her family supports the revolution during the late 1800s, she started fighting alongside the resistance. She was an excellent horseman and marksman (or woman, actually) and defied her husband’s wish and led a rebellion in Capiz. She fought many battles against the Spanish troops and won them all. She was driven by the early deaths of her two brothers under the Spanish rule.
Fifty years after her victorious drive in Visayas, she led yet another guerilla resistance, this time against the Imperial Forces of the Japanese during WWII. Although not in her prime, she started financing Filipino soldiers who fought during the Liberation of Iloilo.
Badass, right?
