Eleanor

Eleanor instinctively knows the language of the great mathematicians
The other women consider her peculiar
She does no needlework
Pines after no man
Her daddy trains her to follow his profession.
She becomes a highly-trained, impressive engineer
Born in the wrong century to be employed,
she starts her own company

Eleanor is a very smart woman. She will be no man's lackey!

She surely will not! I raised three daughters like this and I have six assertive granddaughters coming up.
