Sauf que...
N'en déplaise aux féministes, des femmes au pouvoir, il y en a déjà eues... et leur bilan n'est pas très rose. Dans les faits, les reines ont même déclenché plus de guerres que les rois!
Les faits ont toujours cette sale habitude de complètement foutre à terre les jolies élucubrations de nos amies féministes...
Extraits de cet excellent article du NY Mag:
There’s an assumption about women in power that you may have heard: that women who lead tend to be more diplomatic than their male counterparts, resulting in a more peaceful world. Psychologist Steven Pinker, for instance, wrote in his 2011 book, The Better Angels of Our Nature, “Over the long sweep of history, women have been and will be a pacifying force.” But how much of that is true?
After sifting through historical data on queenly reigns across six centuries, two political scientists have found that it’s more complicated than that. In a recent working paper, New York University scholars Oeindrila Dube and S.P. Harish analyzed 28 European queenly reigns from 1480 to 1913 and found a 27 percent increase in wars when a queen was in power, as compared to the reign of a king."People have this preconceived idea that states that are led by women engage in less conflict," Dube told Pacific Standard, but her analysis of the data on European queens suggests another story.
(...) The queens’ marital status made a difference here; as the authors write, “among married monarchs, queens were more likely to participate as attackers than kings.”
Pauvres féministes...
