Oooo I was right about her being international and super intelligent and well-learned though! Surely speaks fluent English and French and probably Swiss German. And engineering is closely related to science. A picture says a lot about a person and I happen to be a very perceptive person. That’s so amazing about her engineering and architectural legacy in Haiti.

Out of curiosity, how true was the rest? Was she a polyglot world traveler science-enthusiast professor?

Hmmmm. Well Yellowstone is set today. Those cowboy outfits in the pic are very OG. The glasses are forward looking for ‘41 but old-school now, though they’d rock in a vintage way.

Awesome pic. I feel like those sunglasses were really forward-looking, John-Lennon-style.

She looks full of style and class and like she doesn’t take crap from anyone. Also a spirit of adventure and probably a world traveler, linguist, probably also a university professor and botanist on the side. The walking epitome of cool.

What is this annoying super-woke mentality where it’s an insult to say a woman is pretty? And you’re even downvoted. So ridiculous.

Why do people downvote any comment that says a woman is pretty? Such ridiculous annoying super-woke mentality.

No, no it doesn’t. Not for ‘70s fashion. It’s the perfect touch in fact.

Sorry but I honestly don’t see the problem considering the times. I remember. You remind me of the little boy twins in Full House. Forgot their names. (Nicky and Alex I think?) Like they’d be wearing that on a Christmas episode.

Western influences. I mean Shanghai was a big city and not rice farms or something, and, tho ppl now tend to forget or ignore, China was a US ally in WW2.
