		<description>@Kurt Avish, I feel that it requires a fair amount of audacity to swim against the tide. That is exactly what happened with Cleopatra. She is infamous as an obsessive ruler because she tried to rule and save her empire. I think instead of comparing her to the women of today, we must respect her for all that she stood for.</description>

		<description>@Kurt Avish, 

Ahhh... a miscommunication then. Or maybe, I just did not understand your point outright. :) 

Thanks for the clarification though. 

Oh, and BTW, you&#039;re right. These days, Cleopatra would just be like any other of those power hungry women that abounds our society. She can be credited for this &quot;revolution&quot; perhaps.</description>

		<description>Cleopatra was not just another woman. She posses ed a number of qualities and was in a position to control man. I always thought that the last pharaoh was toukankamon sth like that.  Have has cleopatra been born in the 21st century she would have been a renowned politician.</description>

		<description>Not really. The part you mentioned was trying to say: 

In ancient days, women were made to be housewives only and was considered as weak and not able to hold authoritative positions. Forget the evil side of Cleopatra here, what I wanted to say was, that in ancient days, having a woman as Pharaoh was like WTF. However now we have women in high power position. Women who can control others opinion easily. 

That&#039;s what I wanted to say. So putting aside her evil sides, if Cleopatra was in our current age, she would have been &quot;Just another woman&quot;.</description>

		<description>&quot;However, when she is compared to the women of today who work in large corporations or who have become icons in their own right, such as Martha Stewart and Oprah, Cleopatra cannot be viewed as evil.&quot;

Is it just me or does this phrase actually mean that Oprah and Martha Stewart are more evil than Cleopatra? Based on this post, Cleopatra engaged on ruthlessness, debauchery, murder and polygamy. I find it hard to believe that Oprah is evil, more so that she is said to be more evil than Cleopatra.</description>
