"The other problem you have is realizing that both men and women discriminate against women...

If you want a fair playing field and if you want to see women organize into an effective political force, then you need to take away all the financial assets (advantages) that men have in today's society and implement the requirement that 50% of all Congressional slots go to women."

I'm aware of this. I learned that women discriminate against women when something as innocuous as the Equal Rights Amendment failed to pass, because not enough women voted for it.

As for the rest, it'll never happen, unless women are educated, participate, convinced to vote their interest and run for office. Your problem is with women, not with men. Many men run for office who aren't personally wealthy - they convice others to finance their campaigns. Women have enough wealth now to do this as well, and some wealthy and not wealthy men would support them.
