We Can Do It!


I just stumbled upon this picture and found it amusing. It pictures a female dwarf dressed as Rosie the Riveter from the poster with the known title "we can do it". The original Rosie poster was made by J. Howard Miller who painted posters during world war II.

The poster is now a cultural icon, representing the six million women who worked in the manufacturing plants during WW2. These women took the places of the male workers who were absent fighting in the Pacific and European theaters. The character is now considered a feminist icon in the US (and other places), and a herald of women's economic power to come. I even have her picture on a watch at home :)

But as you can see, it can also be used for other purposes ^^ If you are ever getting into trouble with some alliance and are about to give up, just remember to ask yourself; what would Rosie have said? :)

And thats about enough history for today!
