‘Blood, Sweat and Heels’ Star Demetria Lucas Says Being a “Working Woman” in Reality TV is “Revolutionary” [VIDEO]

I’m very comfortable being strong. I was raised to be opinionated and I had a voice and I had something to say. And it’s just weird to me because I think if I were a guy, none of these conversations — I would be a boss. I would be assertive. I would be appreciated and respected. But because I am a woman, I am excepted to do everything to be liked. I am supposed to fall in with the crowd, and be part of the group or something like that. And, you know, well-behaved women don’t make history.

Demetria’s journey throughout the show includes some beef and drama, but also details her journey to marriage with her now husband Greg.
