LucasDucas Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 When the Dukes originally aired my buddies and I were all around nine or ten years old. At that age (boy have times changed) you still were at the age where most of us weren't quite old enough to appreciate girls yet (and most of the girls thought all the boys had cooties lol). I remember most of us had one of our first crushes (I had one on Wonder Woman too) on Daisy Duke. In hindsight, though the media may have portrayed her as nothing more than a sex symbol, there was a lot more to Daisy. She proved a woman could be just as skilled and strong as a man, she was very independent and was a good voice not only for women, but I think largely sent a positive message to those of who weren't quite ready to go "girl crazy" just yet.

TheGeneral01 Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 I can totally relate to and agree with this. She was definitely my first crush, LOL. Thank you for sharing this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirabella Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I thought I replied to this yesterday, it may have been lost. I agree, I loved her growing up. Even as a little girl I thought she was strong and determined. She could take care of herself and her family, loved her friends, drove like a pro and still looked good while doing it!

RogerDuke Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 I can totally relate to and agree with this. She was definitely my first crush, LOL. Thank you for sharing this!Farrah Fawcett was my first crush. Charlie's Angels came out when I was 16. I never really had a crush on Daisy. The show came out when I was 19 and I had a serious girlfriend so I never did go crazy over Daisy. I just looked at her like a cousin. Of course if I wouldn't have had a girlfriend it might have been another story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waikiki23 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I didn't get to watch the show until it was in re-runs, as I was too little to watch as a kid. I loved they way they portrayed her on the show because she showed that women can do many things and not be snooty about it. She is one of my heroes.
