[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Matriarchal societies are best for everyone. When men have power and are put in charge of money, they tend to spend it on themselves for things like alcohol, drugs, gambling and prostitutes. Women tend to reinvest in the family which benefits society as a whole.

Just watched Katie Couric as she moderates a panel at the World Economic Forum in Davos. The discussion, "Ending Poverty through Parity," focuses on how to invest in women and girls around the world.

Serious question. If matriarchal societies are best, then why aren't most societies matriarchal? Shouldn't there be an evolutionary / survival of the fittest angle here that fits?[/quote]

Probably because jobs used to require physical ability. But with technology, we are shifting to an information based society and leaving much of the physical labor to machinery or low skilled workers. Men were able to use their physical ability to accumulate resources, gain power and structure society in ways to benefit themselves. So it is the legacy of the origins of humans that keeps men in charge. It will take enormous societal and cultural change for women to gain equality despite acquiring the necessary skills to compete in an information based society.[/quote]
