Should women rule the world? |

1. Two words: Carly "No job is America's God Given Right anymore" Fiorina. |

Two more words: Ayn Rand.
Where does everyone think "Greed is Good" CAME from?
Greed kills everything it touches. Gender generally has nothing to do with it.

11. It seems that testosterone levels are related to incautious decision-making. |
|
Nobody is saying that there are behavioral "bright lines" between the sexes. And the study discussed at the link doesn't point to a brand new discovery. But it does appear to support, and add some detail to, long-recognized distinctions between male and female behavior. So, it's just possible that gender may, indeed, have something to do with it.

22. The interesting thing about the females you mention.... |
|
Is that they behave in masculine fashion.
They're the type that when men refer to them, they refer to them as bitches, because they behave like males, and men reject women who behave as if they carry testosterone in their bodies. In other words, aggressive like males, my-way-or-the-highway testosterone-filled, etc.

17. There's no doubt that men are responsible for most of the problems and women |
|
who are like men are responsible for the remainder.
I've often said that things would be just fine if we could ever solve the problem of "testosterone poisoning".
Wars are started by men and even computer viruses are developed by men.

32. Testosterone poisoning.... |
|
Maybe you can set up a concentration camp for all men and start doing crazy experiments on them to eliminate testosterone. If it doesn't work, there's always the "showers". After all, all problems for our society can be blamed on men, or those traitorous women that act like them. Men, they're dirty, violent, threaten our society! You could make all men wear male symbols, just so there is no confusion about who is causing all the problems. Yeah... blame the men!

19. Sorry, can't agree. I'm too old to breed, but I still like having fun. |
|
Keep men for recreational purposes, instead of just procreational purposes and I'll sign on.

They can opt out of the breeding program if they have other special skills...making margaritas, giving back rubs, holding our purses for us etc... :party:

25. They'll have it easy with me. I just want them to fix my car and carry the heavy stuff. |
|
In return I'll keep them well-fed -- I'm a kick-ass cook. Which reminds me, add doing the dishes to their list of duties.

And, if they're incompetent, gender doesn't really matter either.

For starters, I don't think Oprah would be beating the drums of war in the middle east, unlike what Obama is doing right now.
