To All Women Out There ... Equity in Opportunity

Don't complain, go get it done. Stop putting groups together to beg others to give you what is rightly yours. Go get the power on your side.

I often wonder why women, at least in countries where there is one vote for one person, complain about equity in opportunity, political participation etc. This issue came back with a vengeance this past week with Finish voters bringing to power a woman who is also very young. The question I keep hearing and reading by mostly women but also by a lot of men is: Why isn't this happening in my own country? Why can't we also have someone who is young or a woman or someone from outside mainstream politics become our president or parliamentarian etc.? 

The answer is simple: Because women do not organize, vote the best, encourage the change of our culture to promote young people or women or other disenfranchised individuals to want to claim political positions of power. They are not doing everything possible to increase the confidence level of young people to the point they would believe in themselves that they can do a great job.
It is simple. I believe that if women were to organize enough, they could claim what they long for and many men will support that effort. But women need to take control of the process. They should convince everyone that they believe in this and they should work to get it done. If women were to organize they could bring to power by the next elections 50 women in parliament and a young female to the presidency ... and by the way... it is about time to have women dominate our politics because obviously men fucked it up big time... so, TO ALL WOMEN ... get your act together and get it done... nobody is going to do it for you or give it to you in a plate ... put the processes together and GO CLAIM WHAT IS YOURS... don't complain, go get it done...
