Virago 

A term referring to a woman who is manly in character but not necessarily appearance. A woman who steps out of the domestic role and sometimes oversteps her boundaries as a woman. She never takes shit from a man and always holds her own. She keeps a man from walking all over her and she never, EVER, downplays her importance in order to charm a man.

Hilary Clinton is a real virago

Virago 

In ancient times this word referred to a strong female warrior, usually an absolute badass that was well respected and highly regarded (see: Lagertha).

Unfortunately the patriarchy runs so deep, over time men purposefully corrupted the true meaning of this word by using it in demeaning ways, such as in Yos example “Suzy can be such a virago during that time of the month”. A misuse of the word, intentionally stripping it of its strength, beauty, and integral respect that once belonged to female warriors who were seen as equals to men.

Women are badass. Viragos are badass. Any man who uses this word in a negative way is uneducated and doesn’t deserve to be in your presence.

She’s a six time Olympic gold medalist? What an absolute virago!

Sometimes when fighting for female rights and dismantling the patriarchy you need to channel your inner virago.

Women firefighter? Nah, virago. Women soldier? Nope - virago. Women police officers? - viragos. Lady paramedics? More like badass life saving viragos. A female CEO? You mean a goddamn virago? Female nurses - VIRAGOS! The list goes on.

virago 

1. A bitch
2. An assertive woman
These definitions are pretty similar.

I hear Suzy's getting uppity with her man - she can really be a virago during that time of month.

Virago / Amazon

A gender identity where someone associates with being a woman, dresses and behaves like one, but sometimes acts or thinks masculine. They often strongly dislike toxic men & can have any sexual orientation.

(Notes: They might be into combat sports. Act loud & boystroise at times. Have lots of strength and courage.

Not exactly the same as a tomboy who is often more masculine on the outside, but not too girly either. Somewhere in between)

(e.g. Wrestler: I am not a weak girly girl or man, but a virago / amazon !)
