Robin Read, President and CEO of the National Foundation for Women Legislators (NFWL) is committed to bridging party lines to help more women become elected officials. As it stands, only 17 members of the Senate are women and less than 90 women are in the House of Representatives.
I have been reading Leslie's book LWM and it has made me think alot of my own personal experiences in life. I came up against men, for promotions into jobs that had been held only by Men...'It's A Man's Job' was the cry.
In my case I was supported by the women Stenos&Secretaries of the men I had to convince to give me a 'GO!'
And they did. That was in 1970.
I agree with Robin Reed, women are held to higher standards by women.
Because we are in competition with each other for.......?
