Several years ago, a group of us went out for beers after work. Nothing remarkable about it, really, except that only two of us were women. I looked around and asked the other woman, a good friend of mine, "Were you always 'one of the guys'?"
She knew immediately what I meant. "Yes," she answered.
"I guess that makes us dames," I said. And she laughed.
Instead of "Maiden-Mother-Crone," I was "Tomboy-Gal-..." Now I'm a Dame. So this quiz comes along at the perfect time.
And if I had to be a dame, Roz Russell would be one of my top choices (Katharine Hepburn would, of course, be another). Gypsy, Auntie Mame, His Girl Friday, The Trouble With Angels--I can identify with those characters!
(The Trouble With Angels was based on a great book, Life With Mother Superior by Jane Trahey. I received that book the summer before I started at an all-girls Catholic high school. Although not a boarding school, I had similar experiences. The movie doesn't begin to do the book justice!)

You are one wise-cracking lady, always quick with a clever remark and easily able to keep up with the quips and puns that come along with the nutty situations you find yourself in. You're usually able to talk your way out of any jam, and even if you can't, you at least make it more interesting with your biting wit. You can match the smartest guy around line for line, and you've got an open mind that allows you to get what you want, even if you don't recognize it at first. Your leading men include Cary Grant and Clark Gable, men who can keep up with you.
