There are about as many female talking heads on TV news as men and yet if all their opinions disappeared from TV, the world would not notice or suffer

My friend is having some crazy thoughts. He says that if no woman ever expressed an opinion on politics, the field of Political Science would be undiminished. Ditto economics, law, classical music, architecture, physics, chemistry, math, biology.

Women giving up punditry would be like men giving up knitting.

On the other hand, if every male pundit disappeared, the world would not be diminished.

If no woman had ever taken part in politics in the West, women would be happier today, men would be happier today, and the West would be stronger and not overrun with unsuitable immigrants.

Crazy thinking. And bad. Very wrong.
