Day to Day happenings in my life

Where are the women?

The elephant in the room: (a topic that everybody is thinking about but nobody is talking about.)

Let this metaphor inspire your entry today.

I’m sure everyone must be thinking the world is being overrun by men who crave ultimate power. Men, who by any means possible have forced their way into the top positions in their countries and have no intentions of leaving. They watch as their people starve whilst they accumulate indecent wealth.

Women are considered inferior to men in many countries and it’s absolutely beyond comprehension that the world is turning a blind eye to the subjugation of girls and women in Afghanistan under the rule of the Taliban.

Civilian dictatorships: Examples include China, North Korea, and Eritrea.

Military dictatorships: Examples include Chad and, historically, Chile and Brazil.

Russia’s President Putin has decreed himself to be President for life and I feel as if a certain American President has the same aspirations. What I’m asking is, ‘Where are all the women?’
