Woman as a leader: Natural or Coincidence?
103628
I might agree that most women would prefer a man to lead. I think many women these days feel forced into leadership roles because men have not asserted themselves. I'm not totally convinced that it's the design of nature that causes this. My observation is that it is a cultural thing. Alot of Women still view it as a burden and a temporary  perversion of nature that has placed them in leadership. Once they  have accepted their role as leader, they seem to thrive and often outperform men in similar positions. So I think it's cultural!

This is a leadership role. The women were to teach the younger women. This is the order that God has established for the church and the home.

Generally ladies are peace loving, accurate, hardworking, determination and concentration on their work...... and godgifted motherly behavioiur.  Therefore, I do support the idea of a woman president.

You are not the only one.  I, too, think she will do a great job.  She is a strong, focused woman.  Only time will tell...

Yes -- if you've found a real man who understands the difference between being dominant and being domineering!  At the risk of sounding archaic, I believe the husband should be the head of the household.  That does NOT mean that he should boss you around.  It means he should be a leader.  Don't get me wrong -- I believe in equal rights and a good man will respect his wife as a person.  He will exalt her judgement and be awed by her talents and good works.  But when there comes a time when there's a decision to be made and it's a tie, a woman should trust him to make it.  (So you have to find a man you can trust to make decisions with EVERYONE'S best interest in mind -- not who's just putting his foot down because he can.)

We have our first Female speaker in the house. I feel that this is an important step to having a female president in the running. We need more women to balance out the good ole boy network that has been running for to long. A women as president would make other countries take another look at us. They would have to reconfigure their stand in dealing with the US. As long as she is sure and confident in her purpose she would be an asset to the Presidency.

No, this is not right. Although, there are aspects to a women that may keep a man in line, this does not mean that he needs one to be successful, nor does it mean that there is a woman behind every successful man.

Men made the world. Women control it.

there are women in my workplace who have ascended to managerial positions, starting out as secretaries/assistants, with only  a hs degree or an associates. men don't have that luck.\nAnd besides, any word or stare can be considered harassment, making women untouchable in an office.

WOMEN ARE MORE OPEN TO EXPRESSING THEMSELVES THAN MEN

Speaking as a Woman succeeding in a male dominated society:\nIt is women like myself that encourage us to succeed, not society or anything/anyone else.\nI/we have the drive, ambition, courage, and goals to want to succeed, to accomplish, just as any motivated person would. \nOur hearts encourage us, our intelligence guides us.\nIf anything, society attempts to detour us with daily hurdles and difficulties.\nEquality in the work force is not a reality, just an additional struggle for women.  But that's ok.

I'm a male nurse, so I work in a predominantly female atmosphere.  My managers are usually female.  The way situations are handled are unmistakenly female.  Additionally, in situations where brute strength is required (such as lifting a heavy patient or calming an incooperative one) I become the resource of choice.  I don't bicker, hold grudges or complain much (which my wife states are predominantly female traits; I'll just hide behind her on this one), so while I'm not always a part of the conversation, I'm generally liked by all.\nReally can't say I mind working around a bunch of girls.  :)

LOL, I've asked this question to my friends before too. I think that there would be less war and less corruption in the governments. However I think its impossible to have a woman be in power in countries that are predominantly muslim or islamic; you know the countries where women are dressed so that no one can see them. I think there would be more diplomatic talk between nations, and probably more effective diplomacy if it's all a bunch of women. Women have a natural caring instinct, don't they -- the motherly instinct. I think that is a great characteristic to have in a leader of a country. I wish every country in the world should try a woman leader for a five year span. 2010 to 2015 for example.

Yes definately. Woman was created from man. That is why the word "man" is in the name "woman"!! The male species is more intelligent and dominant than woMAN!!!

I don't think it's just women.  Men do both as well.  I think it's just preference..and whether the person cares about their environment.

It depends on the woman and/or her upbringing and beliefs. I know I do not like to be dominated. That makes you less of a person, we are all equal.
