An odd essay on--brace yourself--Southern poverty stricken hillbilly women. It is well written, but the author's main point seems to be that the Southern 'steel magnolia' stereotype of strong women is misplaced, and that instead of that reputation belonging to Scarlett O'Hara, it belongs to the pioneer/hill women of the South. I just wasn't sure what this author's musings add to the dialogue.
