God what a sexist article. Note that in one page, it said that females
are discriminated against in politics, that they make better leaders
than men, and that the media should push them on the public more than
they do men.
That's because the only way women can make it is when we help them ;-)

D.

The reality is clear, however: females just aren't as interested in
standing for election as men. Which makes MP quotas, for example, a
sick joke.
