Why Aren't There More Women Leaders of Industry, Science and Technology?
Could it be that society was sexualized to stop the transfer of industrial and leadership knowledge from men to the large number of women entering the workforce after World War II? With sexual tension and considerations, a natural barrier would always be in place to keep half of the population from rising up and possibly displacing the emerging industrial leaders of the post-War era.
Where did "sexy," as a trait worthy of aspiration, come from anyway? There are many documented histories of sexy this or that, all related to media, which you will find with a simple search. People tell stories of how they applied the concept in their creative projects to drive sales, using freedom, liberation, rights, rebellion and other emotional tricks to cause people to act on it, whether they could verbalize it, or not. What we begin to see is that the concept became a tool for money and control. This has been a tool that has served many goals. And, we have accepted it as a part of culture, even ignoring it all around us.
What do you think?

Note, the Google search results for Leadership focus on suits...
The search results for "women in business" yields almost the same, but with skirts...
Look, no suits on the search results for "women..."
Of course, they're there for men...
And they're there for wealthy...
I'm not going to paste the search results for "sexiest women" or "sexy," but I didn't see any business suits over there.
Could a business suit be the meme for this conspiracy?
Or, is sexiness a natural part of our world, which should be displayed, celebrated, marketed and taught to our children?
I'd love to hear what you think.
Best wishes,
