    The Feminine Divine

    "I don't mind how much my ministers talk," Baroness Margaret Thatcher once said, "as long as they do what I say." The former British prime minister long ago defied the conventional wisdom that women can gain power only by studiously working behind the scenes to forge consensus. That's why she and 99 other leaders in politics, business and social causes have made it to our first ever ranking of the world's most powerful women.

    begs the question

    Ah Max you old lychee, enough with this begging already-all will be revealed in due course.

    Alas due to an inabilty to bring forth my feminine side I was not able to enter the hallowed halls of lesbian gangsterism*; and the only thing left for me was to loll about the lanes in my lungee here on languid Lamma and pretend to be a libertarian.
    Next question puhleese!


    *if totally confuesed do a forum search for lesbian gangster
