Math Ain’t Patriotic: When Merit Makes Men Uncomfortable 

Breaking news: The richest country in the world still can’t do basic math.


We say we want the “best person for the job” —

until that person is a woman.

Then suddenly, it’s about “likability,” “tone,” and “vibes.”


We’ve had centuries of unqualified men running countries into the ground,

but the moment a woman shows up with credentials, experience, and logic,

she becomes a threat — not a leader.


From Angela Merkel stabilizing Europe

to Jacinda Ardern leading New Zealand through crises with compassion,

the evidence is clear:

when women lead, nations thrive.

But in America, equality still comes with conditions.


We don’t reject female leadership because women can’t lead —

we reject it because once they do,

it will expose how unnecessary the myth of male superiority has always been.
