Just look at the aftermath of any natural disaster. The people doing almost all the dangerous and unpleasant work recovering bodies, repairing infrastructure etc. will be men. The people sitting down and giving interviews to TV crews, demanding support, will mostly be women.
Justine Greening would surely not be in the cabinet if it weren’t for Dave’s insistence that women are over-represented in the cabinet relative to the proportion of female MPs in the Conservative party. I’m reminded of a video by ManWomanMyth with the theme that women and girls are disproportionately affected by global warming. I’ll try to track it down and publish it in a new post. Because here at J4MB we like to go the extra mile.
