#BecauseIWasAGirl I was told I couldn’t chase my passion. ? “Growing up, I lived with my grandparents in a small Indiana town,” wrote Amanda Beam, 41. Her grandfather raised chickens, which he showed at the Kentucky State Fair. When she was 8 or 9, he encouraged her to raise a few on my own. “When I entered the chickens into competition, he advised me to go by my initials: ‘A.D. Hillard.’ ‘Why?’ I remember asking, while fluffing a white banty hen with a hair dryer. ‘Because then they won’t know you are a girl,’ he replied.” Later on, Amanda realized that her grandfather had been talking about more than a chicken contest. “He was teaching me about life,” she wrote. In the days leading up to the presidential election, there was a distinct possibility that a 227-year-old gender barrier would be hurdled. We asked women to tell us about the barriers they’ve faced. The photographer @willdeshazer took this portrait of Amanda Beam at her home in Lanesville, Indiana.
