So now North America is wholly ruled by Absurdly Gorgeous Men.
I feel as if I should be indignant about this, because what does Absurdly Gorgeous have to do with governing or administration? Nothing. (Diplomacy though? Different story? In which case maybe not nothing at all to do with governing? Persuasion is a necessary skill in governing, and charisma is part of persuasion. We ugly people are not useful in that way, fairness or no fairness.)
Maybe I’ll be indignant about it next week or sometime, but right now I’m just amused.

I think it’s basically just a fun change.
It’s just biology. It’s never going away. Mitigating it is costly.
Amused and a little turned on. Admit it. :)
I need a sash like Peña Nieto is sporting. Time those were back in, I sez.
In related: record women MPs numerically, but really the same proportionally (we recently added seats). And it’s still just 26 percent. (Indigenous reps also roughly unchanged.)

(But the cabinet may be better news.)

As I post, your link goes to an article about Trudeau’s promise of ‘gender balance’ in his cabinet.
Mr. Mexico gets many points deducted for being arrogant and ignorant, I say.
