ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Virago

Okay kiddo, so have you ever heard about the word 'virago'? It's a word that is used to describe a woman who is strong, independent, and powerful.

You know how we have superheroes like Wonder Woman and She-Hulk, right? They're all examples of viragos. They're women who don't need anyone to protect them because they can take care of themselves.

Now, being a virago doesn't mean that a woman has to be physically strong. It just means that she's confident and can handle whatever comes her way.

Sometimes people might use the word 'virago' in a mean way, but it's really a compliment. It's important for girls to know that they can be strong and powerful, just like boys can be. So remember, being a virago is a good thing, and it means you're someone to look up to!
