You remind me of that old joke: When a girl fails in math class, it's "women are bad at math". When a guy fails, it's "John is really stupid".

- internaut 10y agoI think this applies in reverse as well. When I see a woman running an organization that believes in inequality as a prerequisite (I'm right wing and I can say that without qualification), here I'll use the Tories in the UK, then if I see a Margaret Thatcher or a Theresa May, then I know they have the right stuff.
