    Your argument assumes that women elect leaders who don't represent female interests. Yet for some strange reason, us guys are the ones that are forced to die in war, get shafted in divorce court, are imprisoned far more than women, and are by far the majority of homeless.

    The facts don't support your conclusion. They support mine.

    LOL!!

    Men decided only men could be drafted.

    If anything Politician's court the female vote then once they get in they forget about it.

    Divorce...well not many guy's want the kids full time.

    Hey...as I said I see absolutely zero threat from women.

    Those who do see a threat have issues.

    Yes I think so. Of course I may have a flaw, I do think that the vast majority of office holders seek same for noble reasons.

    I like a strong man, but not one who lords it over me. There is a thing called respect.
    I'm not even offended being referred to as the 'weaker' sex.
    I'm secure enough to admit there are some things men are better equipped to do, and should be doing those things.
    But I also know there are things I can do better than a man.

    There is a difference in a strong man who respects women, and lets them be women, without patronizing them and some macho men who have to tell everyone how macho they are. While patronizing women in the process.

    Not sure which is worse, those macho patronizing men or weak intimidated men who let women run all over them.

    Pillow talk is stronger than the ballot box methinks.

    Agreed. It's accepting and embracing the very different roles nature dictates, not denigrating the other but each supporting each.

    Nice ride.

    Well the Macho guy's are actually weak.

    If a guy is capable...that guy doesn't need to rub the woman's face in it.

    She will know.

    I never have been susceptible to pillow talk.

    What, maybe I have a flaw?! I blame mom, she made me watch Mr. Smith goes to Washington.

    Honestly I do believe the majority are there honestly. If not then it's revolution now, why wait.

    We've chiseled away at that. Remember the house bank and unlimited check cashing against a negative balance?

    Lol, today I got a call from Bank of America wanting to know when they could expect an infusion of funds or an xfer from another account. I should of told them: call Dan Rostenkowski, he'll explain the overdraft issue no problem.

    Ultimately I don't think it matters if they are there for noble reasons or not. If the majority of voters are women they should know who to placate.

    Kind of a side topic. I find it interesting that with the number of women coming up in the world and the number of men turning in to "soccer dads" studies are showing that men's testosterone levels as an average have started to fall.

    Awful big coincidence for them not to be linked somewhere.

    This is only because they only recently began to study this.

    No not necessarily.

    A man (I use the term genderless) once elected can vote his conscious or he can vote with the wondering will of the People. Do we elect the man and his mind or his faithful obligation to the mob?

    We elect the man and his mind.

    The system is sound.

    Throughout history, the most brilliant people to have ever lived were all men.

    Makes sense why it would be a male dominated society.

    High level of intelligence is not strictly just a male trait.

    It's called a bell curve. Women tend to stay in the center while guys are all over the place.

    Never claimed as such. IQ for men and women, on average, are equal

    However (and this is a big however), this is only applicable at earlier stages of life. At later stages of life, there is a significantly smaller variation of intelligence for females as opposed to men. Meaning, the majority of women have average intellect. Men, on the other hand, are either very, very smart or very, very stupid; hence, why majority of geniuses we've ever known throughout history were all men.

    The bell curve doesn't determine where women or men are. It simply describes distribution of the data. In the middle of the bell curve is where the mean is placed. Around the mean is the variance and the standard deviation. Variance measures how far apart the data is from the mean, while the standard deviation measures how spread apart each data point is from one another.

    The higher the standard deviation, the flatter the bell curve will be. Men have a higher standard deviation (or all over the place, as you described) because they have a higher standard deviation.

    This is sociological as genetics dictate both sexes are equally capable.
