Should half the House and Senate seats be reserved for women?
Since we'll never actually get equal representation in slow steps, Why not?

I actually think you are selling women short here. And you assume that women WANT the kind of life that politics offers. If I wanted power in the system as it exists I would be in the lobbyists..

@whowasthatmaskedman selling women short by allocating opportunity? Some women want power just like men. They just never imagined it for themselves. Point is they are no different from men. It would open the door to female and male lobbyists. Sadly distribute the greed, And distribute ... the crookedness. Be rather educational. Sadly. I would hope it would educate and humanize the need. Not greed.my MLK dream for socio-economic diversity

@Mindful And those women should go out and get that power, playing a male designed system by mens rules. Feel free. I would like to see a system based from the ground up more on the kind of collaborative Approach many woman excell at. Thats a complete reworking of how elections work, candidates are selected and Washington and that states cooperate and function. Maybe something designed to actually lead the nation and function for the people. With more Women in charge, I suspect housing, health and education would be a far higher prioroty than they are currently.
