TIME "'When it comes to solving many of the world's problems, I believe in girl power.' U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan." "Yeah! Go grrl power! Woooo!" "Wait - who'll be solving MY problems?"
Thereby shining light on a possibly overlooked flaw in the reasoning.
As Jonathan Edwards says in Sunshine (Go Away Today):
“How much does it cost? / I’ll buy it / The time is all we’ve lost / I’ll try it / sHe can’t even run his/her own life / sHe can’t even run his/her own life / I’ll be accursed if she’ll run mine”
(with a wee bit of cleanup and sex change, of course.)
As long as we can’t fix every personal problem, there is at least a chance we can’t solve all of the world’s problems. This probably applies to women as well. I used to always vote for the woman unless the male candidate was clearly superior in demeanor or understanding. Too many times the woman I elected turned out to NOT be good at the job. (I was used to it from men, but women acted like they were clearly better at solving problems. Turns out, some lie.)
