Obama's female staffers banded together and repeated what other female staffers said to make sure it was heard. So this is how some of the most important decisions in our country were made

"As the Post points out, things have gotten much better for female staffers in Obama’s second term. There’s an even gender split among his top aides, and half of all White House departments are headed by women."

Meanwhile ~100,000,000 men who are not part of Obama's staff all agree that men's rights need to be an issue put in front of congress and nobody is listening.

LOL what about all of the other male staffers whose voices weren't heard? They weren't part of the all-important vagina-owning minority so they weren't invited.

So... nagging?

How innovative! /s

That's great. So, instead of supporting various ideas based on their merits, women in O'bama's cabinet are supporting ideas based when the originator has lady bits.
But that's not sexist, I'm sure.

Funny how they can't even imagine that what the women are saying is more frequently not up to snuff, isn't it?

Requests anonymity so she can speak frankly about making sure she's given credit for her ideas I see.

Feminism in a nutshell: women should get all the credit for ideas that people like, but not be subject to criticism when people don't.

If thats what theu want to do fine. But they are demonizing men in order to make their case. "Its not that we want to do this its just that the big bad patriarchal men will steal all of our ideas if we dont!"

Oh FFS! They didn't discover some new female empowerment technique, they did what every junior staffer does to get around the senior staff.

In my last professional job, an hour before big meetings, I'd be stopping into various offices and saying, "You know, Ted's gonna oppose this so I really need you to back me up. And bring those Q4 sales reports in case we need them."

The headline should be, "Female Obama Staff Finally Realizes Staff Meetings Aren't Slumber Parties"

If women want to take credit for the "ideas" of the Obama administration, then they need their heads examined.

If this becomes a thing female staffers will get the repudiation of mindlessly parroting anything suggested by a woman which will make them far less valuable, meaning more men will be hired who are willing to give opinions based on evidence.

and denied them the chance to claim the idea as their own.

I doubt that this kind of woman could come up with any idea worth stealing.

“It’s fair to say that there was a lot of testosterone flowing in those early days. Now we have a little more estrogen that provides a counterbalance.”

Great. Male reason is being counterbalanced by female idiocy. Utopia, here we come!

Shaking my head SO hard at all the comments in this thread. You guys (i say with certainty) would all benefit from counting to ten before you hit 'save'. I honestly thought I was reading responses from /r/theredpill users based on what I saw here. It appears that most if not all of you have some deep-seeded loathing feelings for women in what regard or another.

Where's the empathy ? Where's the understanding ? The lot of you seem to take it very personally that women might be operating in politics in a way to affect social climate change (were women being heard in american politics 100 years ago? 50?). What have any of you been doing to make sure women's voice are heard more often? What have you done lately to make women feel included ?

I'd pay a serious dollar to see the age range of every comment in this thread. I can't believe dense fuckers like you guys vote.
