I will be teaching a class at a youth camp this summer and the theme or the class is DIVA - I want to incorporate confidence for the girls. I thought about doing the whole princess thing.

Determined- Girls should know that it's not by luck or your sex that you get far in life. You have to be willing to put for effort to get what you want.

Intelligent- Education is the one thing in a person's life that no one can take away from them once they've gotten it. Girls should know that being intelligent is a sign of strength (and guys dig it).

Valiant- Valiant is a synonym for confident. :)

Assertive- Girls spend half their lives double-guessing themselves. They should speak up for what they want.

With the history of the word DIVA listed below how about:

Dependent, Intelligent, Vivacious, Adolescent(s)

From Wikipedia:
In mythology, the divas are the lowest forms of divinity, such as the wood nymphs.

For other senses of this word, see diva (disambiguation).
A diva is a female opera singer, but now the term also refers to a popular female performer of non-operatic works. The term was originally used to describe a woman of rare, outstanding talent. The term derives from an ancient Italian word meaning "goddess", which, in turn derives from the feminine form of a Latin word divus, meaning "divine one."

The term sometimes is misused to imply a negative connotation, implying that a pop star who labels herself a "diva" is arrogant, difficult to work with, high-maintenance, or demanding.

TIME magazine observed in its October 21, 2002, issue: "By definition, a diva was originally used for great female opera singers, almost always sopranos." Often today "diva" is used to describe any extremely independent and talented woman; however, the term still applies to the classical arts.

Good Luck....

Sorry, I didn't see someone else already used two of the words I listed.

It is a form of child neglect, I think. Child abuse? I need to think about that. I know that my education was dismissed as a waste of time and money because 'I would only marry, & be supported by a man' anyway. That didn't happen. It took me years to shake off the inferiority complex, and try to become educated. Paying for post-secondary education for my brother was no problem though (of course); because he was male it was self-evident that he needed an education to prepare him for life, so he could earn a living... but I didn't. In the end, I somehow was able to earn a master's degree. If one particular high school teacher hadn't encouraged me, made me feel like I was actually worth something, it would never have happened. I would never have had the courage to try. Even then, it was a very long, tough slog. I was terrified I was to dumb to attend university. I felt like a fraud, that I wasn't deserving of it. I grew up with sexism and it left an indelible impression. I am glad we live in more enlightened times. edit: Jessica I can totally relate, and I am sorry this had to happen to you. Please don't take any of it to heart, they are so pathetically ignorant. I know how much the discrimination hurts, and that the hurt never really goes away. Just be true to yourself, and leave them behind; anything less is suicide.
