Both my mother and my current and former wives were tomboys at some point. It take a special kind of bravery to be a tomboy. And just like feminism, and gay females, it's all being subsumed into the current narrative.
Having said that, I have a suggestion: IMO, this shouldn't be handled like a writing contest. Everyone (once verified to not be a bot) should be encouraged to share their stories in an online forum. Or perhaps an 'open letter' that people can sign, as is the fashion these days...

Strong disagree! Stop putting your 'shouldn'ts' on what women see as important subjects to bring into the light.
I welcome your opinion; I would only point out that my suggestion would put *more* examples of this 'into the light'—but to each their own. Be well!
