You see what you want to see. I see plenty of very powerful women (Merkel, Lagarde, Hillary) and countless powerless men.
Hint: what the powerful have in common is not sex, but money. If you really wanted to make a better society, you would focus on eradicating that discrimination and gap. But then, that probably won't win you any friends or popularity contests, so I guess I understand why you focus on the low-hanging fruit.

- tomp 11y ago> I see what research has found. Care to cite it? What about the "Women are wonderful" effect [1]? I'm not suggesting that women are uniformly privileged compared to men. But neither will I accept that they are uniformly underprivileged. Sexes are treated differently, sure, but IMO to speak about one sex being privileged over the other is to speak from ignorance or agenda.
