How would the world differ if women were in charge: We don't know because it has not happened yet. The only thing we have are isolated instances in various old style communities (such as amazons and the like), but we have predominantly lived in a male controlled society and world. So we see what a predominantly male run world and society is like. To see a female run one, we'd have to get there first and people would have to actually give it a chance without making bad judgements before the fact.
A nice food of thought for you all, especially those with extreme views that women should only be slaves or are only good barefoot in the kitchen:
How would you react if you saw a country that was very successful, peaceful and prosperous that primarely had females in offices of power?
Would you hold your views back for a bit and give the Ladies credit for what they managed to do, or would you continue spouting "she should be in the kitchen cooking for her husband type of talk"? Would you move to such a place ONLY if males were predominantly in charge or would you look at the products of the leaders and people involved and come aboard? I am now not talking about a society where men are instantly "slaves" and worthless, but a country where it just tends to be more "Female-led", where males in power positions would be relatively rare.
And last question, as unlikely as I think it is, just a food for thought -- what if God was female...? How many males would seriously find themselves having problems down the road and how many would simply go: "Ohh shit!" ..... Now, if God was male I'd have no problems whatsoever, because I don't tend to be narrow in my mind-set and judge individuals by their natures not genders.
Probably not the best of posts, but I hope it gets people to think a little. And yes, I agree the OP was funny in a way and I know it was not meant to be serious.
I like good people. I have, and very often have had, as many if not more female friends than males. My two best friends are women. I know for a fact that a woman has the same potential to do as good a job as a man in politics, science, etc.... and be just as big of a fuckup. Thatcher did a great job, in my mind. Hillary would suck like a nuclear-powered Hoover. Women can do anything? Well, some can, and some can't, same as the guys.
