    If the World was ruled by Women...

    If the World was ruled by Women, what kind of World do you think we would live in?

    Although Devil Man believes all Women are Beautiful Goddesses and are the most Wonderous of Mother Nature's Creations (), he is in no doubt that...

    The World would de a Dark and Scary Place and Men would surely suffer unbearably every single day

    Because Women, deep down, are definetly more bad-ass then men. And they would make men suffer by making us do evil stuff like cooking, cleaning and going shopping with them

    Discuss.

    I've been in countries that were run by women. They aren't great, but then again, not many politicians are, so there you go. Margaret Thatcher is often considered to have been a great leader, though, so it can't be all bad.

    You come across as a tad sexist, mate. Girls aren't just there to be lovely and beautiful.

    I will openly say that I think the wage gap would even exist in a fair world as I think that there aren't as many top businesswomen as there are top businessmen in this world, whether this is for some kind of factual reasoning or not I'm not sure, but it's detailed in books that men are in general better at some jobs than women are and vice versa.

    HOWEVER, to say that no woman could run the world as well as a man could is going too far. Just because there aren't as many top businesswomen doesn't mean that there aren't a hell of a lot, and it doesn't mean the best business mind in the world belongs to a man by any means. I'm sure there are a bunch of women who would do a better job than some men who are currently in power, that's for sure.

    EDIT: Also, to say that it would be evil to make men do 'cleaning, cooking and shopping' is terrible. You should do this anyway! It's just as 'evil' for you to make them do it as it is the other way around. Ooh, I hope your mother finds all these threads you've been making some day...

    Got to university the other day...

    Spent friday afternoon wondering around the town, got back at 4.50 and went into the student bar.
    Was talking to the guy in the room next to me, when the guy in the room next to him came down and said; "I've been told to tell you, the girls have cooked dinner for you."


    Went up, all of the girls on our floor had made a full 3 course meal for the entire floor.
    Lovely, really nice of them.
    And we didn't even ask, they just did it.

    Then, after that we offered to wash up and they told us they could do a better job than us, so we were dismissed and sent away.

    ...

    If it's not sexist for men to say women are better at these jobs it IS sexist for women to say they are... Surely?

    That depends on whether they are or not.

    Matriarchy seems no worse than patriarchy, though the former might be better than the latter.

    I couldn't care less about society, politics, whatever, so it wouldn't make much of a difference for me.

    I bet you inspired in my book!

    If world would be ruled by women it'd be a quite better place this world! And I'd love to be at the front seat to watch women in power!

    We just had an anti bush march in Minneapolis. The theme seemed to be it is a time for a WOMAN president. Yeh, I think not.

    I don't mind women in office at all, but claiming that a woman is the answer to problems is about as retarded as saying a democratic president is the answer to our problems. Not quite as bad; since a democrat will just make things worse.

    It will be nice if we are all ruled by a female gorilla.

    Sex isn't, and should never be a factor in deciding a capable leader.

    Exactly. Women can be just as good leaders as men. The gender doesn't make any difference.

    I thought this thread was an attempt at damage control due to this one, but then I read the first post and saw that I was sadly mistaken.
    Boy am I an unfunny ass.

    What about mood swings caused by female chemical make up, maternaty leave, and so on. Are these even considerable? I am no expert on that, just wondering.

    Some guys get mood swings just as often as some girls. Likewise, some girls get mood swings just as rarely as some guys.

    I would imagine a female president would be told to simply not get pregnant... or something. Have female leaders ever been pregnant?

    The reason women don't rule the world is because they'd destroy it as soon as a period came around, if not sooner because the PM of Canada got the same shoes (That bitch!) or something equally bizarre.

    I do not trust women with nukes.
