Sorry for my ignorance, but I have a good excuse though! I'm not from an
English speaking origin :-)))
What is "moxxie"??? ( I looked for it in my Dictionary and didn't find
it)
Sofia D

Moxxie, or moxy or moxxy is:
sort of like ..... outspoken, but in a *GOOD* way! (sort of like
when we say it took 'balls' to say that)
It's a GOOD thing as Martha Stewart would say, and SHE has MOXXIE! LOL!
Hugs,
Noreen

It's usually spelled "moxie". http://www.answers.com/topic/moxie has some
good information. The first meaning is "The ability to face difficulty with
spirit and courage." so I think it is a good word to describe Mirjam.

including body language which defines 'moxie'. Old time US movie
stars
like Katherine Hepburn and Barbara Stanwyck often played roles of
women
with 'moxie'.
Joan



That explain even more! thank you!

Definitely a good word for Mirjam, and for many of the other ladies here.

Higs,
