"Women know less about politics than men regardless of how advanced a country is in terms of gender equality, says researcher Professor James Curran"

Women view things personally, as it would affect them as individuals. This taints the political discussion.

"Such under-representation and topical bias of women in news media may curb women’s motivation to acquire political knowledge actively, and discourage them from political participation, and even prevent women from engaging in citizens in a democratic society," suggests co-researcher Professor Kaori Hayashi.

Ah, now we see the real point of this leftist bilge.

In terms of the supply of news, findings reveal that: •The more national populations watch TV news, particularly news provided by Public Service Broadcasters as opposed to commercial providers, the better informed on politics people tend to be

Apparently "political knowledge" means buying into government run leftist media. Yup, leftist bilge...

How much did this latest chapter from Captain Obvious cost the taxpayer? I say this and I'm a woman. Generally speaking, women are no better at running churches (as the Lord already took the trouble to point out in the New Testament) or companies (unless it is a woman-centered business) or raising children by themselves.

That said, men should still help with the housework, and make the time to really get to know those kids of theirs, and their mother, who live in the same house with them.

And single women with children learn all they need to know about politics: the candidate who will better “provide” for their kids.

"Whatever the reasons, our research shows that globally in the 21st century those who are most likely to be knowledgeable about politics and current affairs are older men in advanced industrial nations," Professor Curran concludes.

Makes sense to me. Typically women are more focused inward on the family than men are, and people in general seem to be less interested in history and the big picture until they are older.

Women worldwide know less about politics than men

You don't say...

The Democratic Party has been counting on that since the ink dried on the 19th. Amendment

Repeal of the 19th Amendment would be good for all American citizens, male and female. We would have a demonstrably freer, safer, more secure, and more prosperous country.

Abortion ... baby killing trumps all. Sums up their entire political knowledge.

As a woman long involved in the affairs of her country, all I can say at this point is that the same people own both the Republican and the Democrat parties. Go Tea Party!

I’m a woman and if I had my way:

1. Women would not be allowed to vote.

2. Women would not be allowed to drive.

3. Women would not be allowed to manage other people.

There are good reasons why women are not supposed to run (ruin) a society and all anyone needs to do is to look at matriachial societies and what a mess each and every last one of them is.

To me the only thing more disturbing than women running things are the spineless excuses for men who let them.

I’m a woman also, and I can tell you that when I worked in a factory, it was impossible to watch anything other than ESPN in the breakroom during the time when an all-male department was in there for lunch. “Male and female He created them” is the explanation.

As a female in her 70’s, I have to agree. Many females, when you talk politics will simply repeat what the MSM says. Or worse yet, don’t know anything that is going on outside of their personal life...
