[quote=Anonymous]Power makes people evil. Unfortunately, men have historically been more inclined to seek power than women. There is actually a huge literature suggesting that power corrupts women too. In Stanley Milgram's classic obedience, women were at least as likely as men to administer what they thought were harmful electric shock, and Zimbardo's classic prison experiment, in which social roles cause cruel behavior, has been replicated with women as well. Here is Zimbardo summarizing one result: "To investigate this I created an experiment. We took women students at New York University and made them anonymous. We put them in hoods, put them in the dark, took away their names, gave them numbers, and put them in small groups. And sure enough, within half an hour those sweet women were giving painful electric shocks to other women within an experimental setting"[/quote]
