When did you read this, or about when was it published? Did you read it in an anthology, or some other format?
I believe I read it in an anthology; but what I have there is basically all I can offer.

Yes, all you can offer is there in your post, but what we try to encourage members to do is put at least some of that, the main plot points if you know them, into your header. This could be the difference between getting your book recognized right away, or waiting much longer, or never. Some members are in a hurry and don't have time to click on a vague header, but will click on something with more details perhaps.
Still on the lookout for this short story.
Still looking for this; unfortunately no new info to offer
The woman who rides like a man, the third book in Tamora Pierce’s Song Of the Lioness series?
defintely have to reread that series but unfortunately no. This was a short story I am sure of that if not much more.
Still looking for this nothing new to add
When did you read it?Do you think the short story was intended for teens or adults?
I am afraid to say how long; in the 1970's and it was in a fantasy anthology; not sure if young adult but a definite possibility.
