So a constitution that enshrines the rights of women is not relevant to this thread?
Huh.
Maybe you should re-write your original post with a list of rules about what we are allowed to refer to, and what topics must stay off limits.
In any case, the most powerful women aren't just political figures, they include Supreme Court Justices, business figures, media figures, and top level bureaucrats .
Just because a woman hasn't been President doesn't mean that women can't be powerful.
It's also worth noting that during the time that Thatcher was PM, there were almost no women in her cabinet. However now during Brown's tenure as PM, there are at least a handful.
I would argue that 'women' are more powerful when they make up a number of top level positions, even if the PM is male, compared to having an individual woman as PM surrounded entirely by men.
(I put women in inverted commas not to be patronising, but to denote a difference between individually powerful women, and women as a general gender group. I hope that's not offensive to the 2 females posting on this thread.)
