Gender imbalance

“Measures to move women into topless roles”. The heading to the article was in fact “…top roles”; what a misread!

Some smart people have focused on the issue of gender imbalance in our boardrooms and decided that the best solution is quotas for women.

Since most Australian corporations thrive in a closed market with government mandated anti-competitive protections, why not?

Considerations of which of the current or new regime would be more effective simply aren’t debated because everyone knows, deep in their hearts, that these people don’t matter much. These roles are sinecures.

To be honest I feel more passionate about the class inequities than the gender inequities. A pox on the North Shore I say; woman and all.
