The one in power...

Another feminist citation.

But as we’ve quickly learned with the ascent of women in politics and government, a woman in power does not guarantee a leader who prioritizes the needs of women.


Sure, it is also true that "a man in power does not guarantee a leader who prioritizes the needs of men" and that having mostly men at the very top of the ladder does not mean that men as a class have power at all. Just sayin...

    The only people who believe that are men who actually do benefit from having men in power (a relatively small number of us) and people who aren't men.
