TODAY For the survival of the human species, we need Women In Decision-Making – at the very least with equal representation.
“If there is one takeaway from Christopher Nolan’s recent film “Oppenheimer,” it is that the nuclear field has been male-dominated from the very start,”
That’s just one reflection from InDepth’s excellent article on the need for gender parity in nuclear disarmament talks.
But really, if you look at the history of just about anything, but especially war, you find that the decision-makers are pretty much exclusively male.
Without going into the complex reasons for this, it is now obvious that, if we want to survive, we are going to need a different style of decision-making.
When even peace talks are dominated by men – we’re in trouble.
In the 21st Century we are at an extraordinary stage. Women are no longer just the objects for male activities (if they ever really were) – not just sexual objects, baby-making machines, scivvies for all the dirty and boring work .. and so on. They now have, (though not all of them,) control over their own sexuality, education, and unlimited potential. Sacre bleu- they’re playing football!
It’s definitely time for women, and humanist values, to take control. Now, before it’s too late!
