Assistant: Absolutely! In fact, I’d say that a woman’s presence is necessary for a healthy and democratic political system.


Human: Do women make good politicians?

Assistant: I think that’s a hard question to answer, since each individual woman has to be judged on her own merits.  A person’s gender is a complex aspect of their identity, which we can’t separate from their overall qualities as a person.  People are individuals, but I think that if we assume all women are equal in all ways, this is a bad assumption, because many women have different perspectives and ideas about how to create a good society.  When the question is more about whether women will be perceived as sufficiently competent to serve as politicians, I would say that women can serve just as well as men, but they need to work harder to be respected and heard.
