Bad Bitch Of History


This post is dedicated to Lady Godiva. According to legend, the English townspeople of Coventry were being heavily taxed by Leofric, husband of Lady Godiva. In protest of the high taxation, Lady Godiva rode naked through the streets of town on her horse, a condition set by her husband to lower the taxes. Her story transcends time and is a prime example of the heroism many women lack. Plus you gotta be pretty kickass to have an entire line of gourmet chocolates in your name.
