A wise woman once said that well-behaved women seldom make history and it turns out that she might have been right. Depending, of course, on who you ask.
For centuries, women have had to fight for their rightful place in society. We don't hear much about those who simply sat down and obeyed the rules. It's often the fierce females, who dared to go against the grain, that might finally earn their flowers. But not always. There are many women who did remarkable things, and hardly ever get spoken about.
Thankfully, there's a community dedicated to honoring them. Women In World History has more than 570,000 followers, and shares photos and stories of women who changed the world in their own special ways. Bored Panda has put together a list of the page's best posts. From musicians, to models, doctors, whistle-blowers and extraordinary mothers, these just a few of the tales that deserve to be told.
