Take Are You a Jackie or a Marilyn? Or Someone Else? Mad Men-era Female Icon Quiz at HelloQuizzy
Having read this now, I am a Katharine in some ways, but not others, especially as far as the parenting thing is concerned. I have always been a hands on mum, totally always there for my kids, giving up my career for them and being a stay at home mum, even after, um 20 years! LOL! So that isn't like me at all. My kids have always come first and always will, and they're my proudest achievement, without doubt. So that's totally not me at all. I think I can be outspoken and I don't like being told what to do, and I don't like clingy or needy people, no. I do like my space, but I've been happily married for 22 years now, for most of my adult life, in fact, yes, I married young! So I do like having a partner and someone to share things with. I do have a very active imagination though - very and have always been reasonably creative, yes.
