International Women’s Day: On Being a Broad To m International Women’s Day: On Being a Broad
To me, there is no compliment to equal the epithet of a broad. I aspire to the title. Think Bette Davis, Lauren Bacall and that uber broad, May West. On International Women’s Day, we salute broads in travel.
