Women, in government? Let's face it unless a government has a 50-50 split of men and women in office, this question can't really be answered ,as the major players in the major departments have the most say, and that will forever be the case.

We are the government. If you want to make a difference vote. Keep up to date on politics. Know what's going on around you. Education is the key. If you want things to get better educate yourself and your children.

Unfortunately it is because those laws were passed when women were thought of as objects and posessions. Rape was the woman's fault, etc. I strongly suggest writing a POM to your congressmen stating that you would like to see those laws changed. I am entirely in favor of changing them and I am entirely in favor of Jessica's Law!

A woman can't be a good leader?  I believe history proves you wrong.\n\nCleopatra\nQueen Elizabeth I\nMargaret Thatcher\nEmpress Theodora\nmore woman rulers:\nhttp://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0801534.html\n\n\nRead about woman warriors throughout history:\nhttp://www.lothene.demon.co.uk/others/women.html\n\nBTW - I do not agree that anger makes a good leader.

It brought women together for the first time to discuss these issues under the leadership of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott. These women had been active in the fight against slavery and were aware of women's second grade status - there is an interesting parallel with second wave feminism a century later. It used the rhetoric of the Declaration of Independence to appeal to American ideas of political participation.\n\nGood luck with the documentary.

Women already help run this world. We never asked for absolute power. Just equal pay for equal work. How cool that you would die for your ma! I hope my sons feel the same.

False.   Women legislators focus on the interests of their constituents and keep women's issues important to them.

Hillary is nothing more than a pawn for the democrats. Used to win the hearts of feminists. She is not strong, not tough, just a pawn of the men using her.

If this is for a project I recommend you write to Ann Widecombe or one of the other senior female MP's in Parliament.\n\nWhen I was at school studying for a history A-Level I wrote to the Defence Minister and received a private, signed letter within a week.  It really helped my project and I was very appreciative.\n\nMaybe you should do the same?...Include some questions and mention what you are looking for with regards information.\n\nGood Luck!
