You Never Thought You Had to Think to Count It was after taking the 2nd MOEMS (Math Olympiad Elementary and Middle School) that I heard this phrase from my school’s math coach.

Ignorance of being lead by a man, particular views of Rose and Ginny, and domesticated to believe that "When we are good girls and accept our circumstances, we're glad about it. . .When we are bad girls, it drives us crazy" (99).
