Hmm, the thing I find quite telling with the idea that women are better 'leaders' than men is the idea of the Amazon tribes. That matriarchal society was as bad, if not worse than a partiarchal society.

But the whole Amazon thing was just a legend of the extremely patriarchal Doric Greeks--at least, that's what I've read: probably something of a wet dream for those nomadic tribesmen who looked down upon their own culture's women, before the settled down. There have been a few small-scale (comparatively speaking) matriarchal cultures discovered, and at least a couple survive. The Navajo, a native American tribe (and semi-autonomous, just in case anybody wonders) remains partially matriarchal. Can't say, though, that their decisions are any better or worse than other cultures.

Er, sorry for the mostly serious post. I'll try to do better, next time.

LOL, hence my use of the word 'idea'. I'm aware it was legend, it stuck me as a good argument though, remember when feminists spout about being Amazon like...

As you should Fable! Serious post indeed... *tut*

I am suitably admonished. It appears that to date, our scientific poll shows that in GB opinion, "Men" and "What?" categories rule the world, while Donald Rumsfeld slightly leads the Women. Which is interesting, if nothing else.

I think I'd like that. You'd make an awesome Dark Queen....

I, for one, would enjoy seeing you use your One Whip Of Power.

One Queen to rule them all,
One Queen to find them...
One Queen to bring them all and in the darkness...
Whip them.

So does anybody believe that Weasel truly rules the world? And if so, why?

I cast a *pity* vote for Weasel.

And we're supposed to interpret this mono-syllabic response in what way?

Actually believe? No. However, think of it this way, the world is a strange and confusing place, Weasel is strange and confused. I rest my case.

I figure the truth of it all is that no gender rules the world, in fact, I think it's the mice or maybe a pimple on God's bottom that rules us all, it would make sense really.

@fable-COMM has brought/will continue to bring light unto the inhabitants of this world.Therefore, it is only appropriate to bestow the highest honor of 'ruler of the world' to the 'gender' that started it all
