AIBU?

To wonder why women only run the world and don't rule it?

I have always admired (some were quite good looking) my male friends and the inevitable way in which they would close ranks and support one another - with the one exception of pinching another's girlfriend...

Could the brotherhood of man be the reason they rule the world, while us ladies have an often uncanny ability to pick holes in one another...or have I just overlooked the sisterhood of women?

Discuss (please avoid rudeness)...

Am I imagining things but wasn't there a recent newspapeer article/radio clip saying this??

Its not the glass ceiling that stops women getting to the top, it is all the other women doing their level best bitching stopping the sisterhood getting to these NB positions...

Jesus was a woman..

He had to feed a crowd at a moment's notice with no food

He kept trying to get the message across to men who just didn't get it

and even in death, He had to get up because there was more work for him to do...

LOL - very good post No1.

I always thought Adam got to the apple first and then blamed it all on Eve...

Love the Jesus joke, that's extremely funny and I'm now sending it to everyone I know.

Wish I could be witty, but can't.

Lots of discussion in my line of work (policing) about women 'pulling up the draw-bridge'. Once a woman has got the higher echelons, doesn't want any other women joining her up there.
