Want to Write a Guest Post for Women and ...Remembering Sally Ride
But there were still rough spots. Speaking to reporters before the first shuttle flight, Dr. Ride — chosen in part because she was known for keeping her cool under stress — politely endured a barrage of questions focused on her sex: Would spaceflight affect her reproductive organs? Did she plan to have children? Would she wear a bra or makeup in space? Did she cry on the job? How would she deal with menstruation in space?
Here's a homage about women in space in honor of Sally Ride from Charmax76.
Thanks for making girls dream for the stars.
