Honestly, no, I don't hold out much hope that she will ever be honest. But I wish she would, because I really want to explore and understand how women in power too often turn against and advocate against women's interests.
Outside of politics in everyday life, I think I often look at the pickme/handmaiden archetype and think that individual women do it to be sexually attractive to men, but we don't fully explore how it works in the public sphere including politics. I feel like "successful" women politicians are especially pressured to stand up against women's rights (and for men's desires, in cases where they broadly conflict). I'm also hopeful for a Jacinda Ardern tell-all that will probably never come.
Interesting that Alex Massie (with whom I often disagree) titles his piece "By the standard she asked to be held to, Nicola Sturgeon is a failure". I saw a thread on Scotsnet asking if people will buy/read the book, and a man someone of course showed up and did a dance about "SOOOOO strange that people HERE denigrate the most successful woman in UK politics this century". But she was NOT successful; she did not achieve Scottish independence and she did not, as she promised, stop Scotland from being "taken out of the EU against the will and without the consent of the Scottish people".
I think that women are treated differently from men in politics, and I think that Sturgeon was under a lot more pressure than Salmond or Yousaf or Swinney to prove that she was not going to demand equality for women. If there are extra social conditions on women politicians to prove they are supporting the status quo and will not demand genuine equity for women, I don't want this to translate into a cultural directive that "we don't allow women to hold top office because they'll be abused and not able to act fairly". I wish Nicola would talk honestly about her experience so we can learn from it, but I also know that she may never do so.
