To name but a few: **Alice The Goon Norinew HazelNutCoffee Freudian Slit MeanOldLady Harriet the Spry Dangerosa Pbbth Guinastasia DianaG Lynn Bodoni Sigmagirl Rushgeekgirl Anaamika Zsofia Cat Whisperer Nava** Love ya all!😃 ---

While I agree in the praise, I always worry about a list, which will also overlook/exclude someone\*. Let’s just agree that they’re all fantastic. \*I worry to even list the obvious exclusions from the two short lists already posted. I can think of ten more, off the top of my head, that are at least as worthy. ---

I can’t tell if the OP is a good thing or kinda patronizing…I mean, yay women and all, but I am not sure I dig pretty much all of those posters listed \*because \*they are women - I dig 'em because they are cool Dopers… ETA: Sorry, not meaning to threadshit; I can see where this post is not in the spirit of the OP… ---
