Rapes or sexual assault against women, 2007
248,300
The majority of US citizens are women; Women are more highly educated in the U.S; Women are continually paid less--by almost 25 percent--than men. Despite a vast pipeline of women in the professional workforce, they are relegated to non-alpha positions. Women are given miniscule representation in government even as they are the majority of the population. Women are largely relegated (most often by so-called progressives) to represent only Democrats in Congress. A staggering national assault occurs daily against women’s bodies with scant attention paid by male-dominated media.

Alpha Women as Sexy: That would be progress!Friday, April 2, 2010 at 3:39 pm — admin
 A bipartisan panel discussion with women in Congress had this to say: “You just don’t have the time,” laughed Kay Bailey Hutchison. “With all the multitasking [women] do, who could plan that whole scheme? I gotta say that is not the whole story. Because of our sexist, double standard culture, men are taught NOT to be turned on by female power; in fact powerful women must be almost de-sexed to be deemed acceptable in our society. So-called Ball Buster women are very scary to men. Remember all the castration fear male pundits expressed toward Ms. Clinton? Palin, because she was still a fertile female was even more threatening to men and ...women alike. We have a lot to do in our culture to make powerful women seem sexually acceptable to men. Frankly, I would be pretty happy to see a few female senators have a fling now and again. Just think... for men to accept the idea of FEMALE power as a sexual turn on ...what a sea change in culture that would be! I can't tell you how many times in bars or at parties, men are hitting on me with gusto, and then, wham, when I give em a shot of power talk, alpha behaviour, then,....eeeep eeep, eep, they run like scared pups, but not before they ATTEMPT to bite me with a kill shot. That is when I have some real fun with these idiots. They actually feel entitled to come into my territory and try to mate and.. when exert I my power, they try to kick me out of my territory. AS IF! Evolution is cool. This big brain of my human self, says I don't have to act life a female dog, wolf or lion. I live in a civil society, and I will fight for equality. |

An interesting perspective.
An interesting perspective. It would be very interesting to see a female politician have to hug the carpet for adultery. I would hate to see what the press would do to her! It would be UGLY.
