I'm with you guys, what the hell happened here?
Joe, I can't believe Im explaining this, but how can you possibly think men have a monopoly on leadership qualities? Look around you buddy, there are four star generals in the army who are women, CEOs at blue chips like IBM and Lockheed Martin, and more women in political office and on the Supreme Court that's it's not even worth listing them all.
Of all your opinions, this is the most perverse.

Not all of us are too far gone into feminist drivel. First weed out the affirmative action hires and secondly, why waste time on mere exceptions while ignoring the rule? The fact is that men and women have different but complimentary roles they excel in. Ever hear of the women's happiness studies? As the country becomes more feminist they get even more pissed off and depressed with their lives. If they are so empowered now shouldn't they be thrilled? Many women will tell you themselves "I just want to marry a rich guy and be a housewife!". Deep down many women would give anything to turn back the clock to spend more time with their kids and family rather than being a breadwinner. Women have turned into men and that's why dating is so rare in my generation. It's essentially dead. They want to be treated like princesses, but then they want to be treated like the boss too.
Chivalry and feminism are polar opposites. Chivalry was based on the concept that women were generally weaker, more vulnerable physically/emotionally, etc. Women these days are miserable. All it takes is a quick google search to see the true scope of this and the reason is because feminism is based on the lie that we are exactly the same. We are 2 pieces to the same puzzle, not 2 of the same puzzle pieces. Whether you want to admit it or not, history will tell you that 9 times out of 10 if you want a leader who takes risks (proven to be way more common in men) you pick a man. There are obviously some great women leaders but they are far and few in between. This is well-known, nothing radical. Testosterone and risk taking is something very important for leaders and women are lacking in those areas on average.
LOL, listen dude, I happen to think she is an OK choice and definately dont agree with sirvoo, but spare us this silly pseudo-feminist tripe about women supposed advantages.
Women are in fact not as ruthless in general. But i dont think that is necessarily what is needed for that position

How did you know I was also Josejosejimenez?! Touche sir, touche. :woohoo:
I named a softball league a long time ago that I started for my friends and I after myself and a member here has a football stadium named after his father so I dont see why Paul wouldnt be eligble for post of the year. Heck we can name the award after him also.
Joe, this is usually where it starts. You go off on some tangent and talk about political correctness or liberals, it leads you to become combative in your posts and eventually leads to, well, your latest name reincarnation on this board says it all.
For those of you who don't think woman can't be ruthless, you might want to talk to some divorced men who might tell you differently. I definately can think of two right of the back.
Get the best available person for the job, period and if she is it, good for her and the Conference.
