What a 64 year old retired grandmother thinks about world events has absolutely no bearing on anything. Trust me.
I beg to differ, ilovesarah2012.
But I know what you mean. It reminds me of that old saying about the relative power of a husband and wife:
Our wives decide how much money we can spend, how many children we have, what kind of cars we own, where we go, what we eat, where we sleep, how much work is done on the house, where we retire, how much money we retire with, what nursing homes we will go into, where and how we will be buried.
We men get to decide the importance of world events, what they mean, how they affect us, who we should be allied with overseas, etc. etc. etc.
Yeah! We men have all the power!
