Because women can barely run a house let alone a country….

They do cook for the dictators though. Very important in any dictatorship

Feminal like supporting woman or female?

Adina1968's avatar

Because women already dictate everything we don’t feel that the title is necessary!

What, Amivi Gama is chopped liver?

As female leaders become more commonplace, you’ll see a rise in female dictators. Ms Gama is merely the first drop in the bucket.

If you look back long ago, you can see that there were some female leaders, and some societies placed females as equals with men.

Since most politicians are men, it makes sense that most dictators would statistically at least be men. Which is not to say that there haven’t been female politicians, female dictators and even female kings for that matter. They just call them queens.

This question has me thinking of Lysistrata for some reason…

@Jack79 I think female kings would still retain their title as Queen, but they would have more power over the king regardless. If you look back you can see several female monarchs taking control.

I prefer masculal dictators, they have taken the fine arts of destruction and cruelty to levels beyond belief. I don’t think with that kind of head start feminals will ever catch up.

@toomuchcoffee911 Give the girl a break. She was looking for love first. World domination was a secondary goal. lol

Oh, why doesn’t anyone love me? thought Cleopatra as she idly watched one of her minions slice her little brother’s throat. If only some rich, strong, handsome Roman consul came along! My life would be so much more fulfilling! Or at least more interesting. ::sigh::

Think how annoying it must have been to know you had to marry your 13 yo brother. Most of us wanted to kill l’il bro without having a wedding on the horizon.

aprilsimnel's avatar

@galileogirl – Yes, if he didn’t kill her first. The Ptolemies were quite the nasty bunch.

There is Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton, what more would you need! The richest most domineering Senator, or the the most power hungry anti-feminist in Government-whoops she might not count. Depends on how you define “feminal”.

Feminal as opposed to Seminal?
