[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am all for supporting women and encouraging them to be leaders.  However, I hate what we are doing in society today, forgetting about the boys and younger men sometimes.   The old white guys seem to women out in the old generation.  But they are different than the young males who are struggling right now.

In my company (in a field that was formerly considered male dominant), 65% of the leadership is women.  We were told specifically to promote women into these positions, and once the women are in they continue to push other women into leadership positions.  It's like the good old boys network except the other direction.

You think this is a bad thing?[/quote]

I am not sure if it is a bad thing.  I don't think it's a good thing, in my opinion.  It isn't because the men are less qualified, per se, to be in leadership positions.  I think when decisions are made base on gender, race, sexual preference, then it can become an issue.  Ensuring there is diversity versus seeing the pendulum swing a bit too far can also have negative effects.  That said, I worry less about the older generation than I am of the younger one.  I wouldn't want my DD to grow up where a large swarth of the population is incompetent, whether it is male of female.  It's going to be a burden on society and it's helpful to identify where we can help.[/quote]
