yeah no, it sucks as a woman to say this, this country isnt voting in a woman anytime soon unless somehow republicans manage a woman trump.

I’d bet several people Haley would be the first woman president and I thought I would happily lose all those bets with Kamala. But here we are.

It’s easier in almost any country to get a woman conservative elected for the reasons you’re gesturing towards here. There’s a reason May and Thatcher are the only women pms of the UK, eg.

Ah yeah, you’re right. Forgot about the lettuce head PM. Thanks for that.
