Gloria Steinem
We have so much to thank Gloria Steinem for — the founding of Ms., her tireless crusading on behalf of the women's liberation movement — but on that long list we have to add her unwillingness to bend to societal pressures over her looks. She was considered a very attractive woman, a fact that constantly dogged her as she struggled to have the women's rights movement taken seriously. So, we love that when her long, brown hair started going grey, she wore it with pride, rather than try to hide it with hair dye.
