Good article.
My opinion on women doing anything is this.
If a woman wants to compete with men, go for it. But, do not complain about getting dirty, literally and figuratively.
By the same token, the men she competes with should offer her the same competition that they would afford another man.
By that I mean, Don't slap her arse during or after a game, don't pull a strength move that she can't match, use guile, brains and a little finesse..
I have been in some of the most satisfying games (behave yourself!) with women when I have played-as opposed to trying to out muscle- them.

Gals will always get the short shrift, menopause, monthlies, hormone comments. The most dangerous opponents to any woman politico are the AHs like Dean and Pelosi- the female basher and the old crow who can't stand to see woman ascend to something they can't or will never be.
They only care for end result, should BO get the House. The salivate over the chance to show up on the White House door step, hat in hand and remind the him about the color of lipstick they were wearing when they kissed his arse.
Ah, politics!

By the same token -no pun intended there, god knows you can't say anything these days without someone playing the race card- I heard two interesting news stories/clips about women and politics.
The woman who called BO and 'inadequate black man'. I was waiting for the backlash of protest against the media for playing the clip of her saying that.
Nothing, nada, zilch.
Then a guest on a news show was asked about who she was going to vote for.....She hinted that her vote was going to BO becaUse he is a ROCK STAR!
WT Ever Loving F does THAT mean?
Why not put Mick Jagger in? Bob Dylan? Axel Rose?
We love our rock stars, but they come with a severe handicap. Drugs, alcohol, vapid personalities and not the best judgement.
Everyday I see a little more clearly.
No one questions BO is inadequate and a rockstar.
God, Have mercy on our souls, our country and the state of Rock and Roll.
AMEN.
