Thank Thundercats For Sheroes

Thunder Cats roared onto the cartoon scene in the Eighties. Bringing forth SHE-roes and Heroes which was exciting for many. My children probably enjoyed them, I do not remember. This was during the time when TV was guiding them more than I was. I was attending three colleges simultaneously Trying to get a degree in something so I could make a living. I do recognize the music of Thunder Cats And I recognize the SHE-roe attitude in all three of my daughters. I have a Thundercat shirt I wear sometimes to school. As a reminder that my children not only survived But thrived Thanks to creative cartoonists who decided to empower women in the eighties. I wish they had been around twenty years earlier When all we saw on TV were happy women wearing pearls and full dresses, loving their washing machines and dryers.
