Some make a fuzz about when finally a woman enters leading positions. But I come to the question: What does that use if she is raised and she believes in the system like every other man? People often assume that if a woman enters a high position, something's gonna change in the course of that position because "women don't behave that bad like men". Strange, I see the world lead by enough women, but nothing on the general course of capitalism and state politics changes. Things are still like as if the good old patriarchy still shared it among themselves.
Don't know if it's called the Thatcher thing. At least I see people still being euphoric about things like these - interestingly, I think this comes from those corners which want to tell you at the same time men and women are equal and gender shouldn't matter. If it shouldn't matter, I ask myself, why does it become important again at stages like these? Strange overseas gender activist's logic.

It's the Margaret Thatcher problem. Liberation is never about just one thing.
