Well, the Housewive's series and Kardashians and those kinds of women don't strike me as women with substance. I guess I have a different view of what's important than they do. I see people with substance, whether they are men or women, who look at life in a FAIR way, without so much self-interest that they would screw others to get what they want. I see people of substance who see the importance of education, family, good business practices that make the majority associated with them successful, not a minority successful. I see people of substance as those who can use their own brains to LEARN about an issue, without just accepting things they hear people say, including sound bites and rhetoric. I also think that those of substance who don't understand enough about a subject admit it, rather than just parrot what they hear others say, because it "sounds" cool to say.
I find all of that admirable. Does that mean that there aren't people without these traits admirable? No. There are plenty of admirable people. These traits happen to be what I think of just this moment.
