No, it's not. You just didn't learn all of history. (A.k.a. not all period dramas need to be all-white all-straight etc. and we have the sources to prove it)

Women's Memoirs and (Auto)biographies

I have been collecting (and reading) a long list of memoirs, autobiographies and biographies about women who had fascinating lives. I thought I might as well make it a list! A lot of them I have read and enjoyed, some are from my TBR. I am especially fascinated by 18th-19th century women's stories, so there will be a lot of those. And women from diverse backgrounds. Open to suggestions!
