It contained a character Lady Bab Blue who was a parody of bluestockings. She entertained the leading Bluestockings at their house.

She was an active member of the feminist group Bluestockings ("seitosha"). The league experienced steady growth and formed a second team, the BlueStockings, in 2010. The Bluestockings Elizabeth Carter and Mary Delany were her attached friends. Bluestockings was originally opened in 1999 as a feminist bookstore.
