About Imperfect Women
Imperfect Women is a news and information source offering original compelling content and a safe, secure place for busy, clever women of all ages to come and be heard. Imperfect Women was founded by a diverse group of eight opinionated women whose ages span 4 decades. Our aim is to reach women of a variety of political/social viewpoints and stages in life. Though we do not always agree about politics, religion and life issues, we all respect and value the opinions of other women. We battle the tendency for others to judge mothers, wives and working women against an impossible ideal. We believe each woman’s choices about her life and family should be respected, not vilified. We share one common trait: we are all “works in progress.”

“Getting closer to 50, I am resigned to repeatedly finding out that “No, I don’t have it all under control.” And, hearing myself say “I completely forgot” and “Where did I put that?”

“Stoic I am not. I admire the stiff-upper-lipness of 19th century English novel heroines, but I have a long way to go myself in that regard. When I’m not happy, the people around me tend to hear about it.”

“I admit it: I am a terrible driver. I am afraid of highways, toll booths, and am directionally-challenged. I am often lost and do not even know it, because everything always looks familiar, having been lost there before.”

“I dislike laundry with a passion. I can wash it and throw it in the dryer like a champ. But don’t ask me to fold it or put it away. I can almost guarantee you that there is a stack of clothes on my dresser right this second…. ”
