Did I say women are better?  I said we need as wide a diversity of people as possible in power. First step to that is more women.

Men are more likely to be able to network in order to help each other rise to the top - golf clubs, Men's clubs etc, that they can be a part of frequently because they don't traditionally have the burden of childcare. Women have fewer career related networking opportunities.

More men do want to spend time with families though and they'll be at a disadvantage too if they do, so the whole culture needs changing.

No you didn't.  The shouting wasn't directed at you.

It was an attempt to avoid a discussion sub-thread.  Experience has taught me anytime I mention female/male brain differences the chances of a comment talking about which is better approaches 100%

Ah! Because I thought we didn't usually clash on these topics so it seemed strange that you might shout in my direction.

I suspect if ValentinD or Lily were active right now then a biiig sub-thread would have materialised!
