Reader Be Warned: My Opinion is NOT the "norm"

The term "independent woman" has been so freely given away and self-proclaimed. It seems that a lot of terms these days are used in whatever way the beholder wants to use it. (But that's another topic - for another day). My understanding of an independent woman is one that operates, functions and survives without support from outside sources. Now this does not mean that an independent woman can not be in a meaningful relationship or have a family. It just means that she can function/survive with or without one. She makes a way to make things happen - no matter what!
Now...let's define what "making a way" is NOT. Making a way does not mean swindling or bribing another person of their coins or services - that's a hustler. Making a way does not mean using the aid or support of the federal government for food, housing, cell phones, etc... Making a way does not mean staying at home with your Mom, another relative nor having a roommate - for the purpose of financial support. Making a way does not mean being supported by your husband, boyfriend, your sugar daddy, pimp or your trick.... I could go on, but I think you get the point. Oh, maybe just maybe, I have a different understanding of what an "Independent Woman" is. But, last I checked, when used to describe something/someone independent still means: in·de·pend·ent ˌindəˈpendənt/ adjective: independent 1. free from outside control; not depending on another's authority. 2. not depending on another for livelihood or subsistence. The source for this definition is www.dictionary.com Disclaimer: There is nothing wrong with being a hustler, a roommate, or being supported - just label, accordingly.
