Women leaders have a secret agenda to establish a Matriarchy, using feminism as a guiding force

Thank you, Con. I apologize for not being able to submit my 2 counterclaims in on time. I also apologize for not realizing that you were excluding non-1st-world countries; I was misled when you said that the patriarchal system has been threatened “especially” by 1st world countries. I deliberately chose not to directly debunk your theories of matriarchy because it doesn’t and cannot even exist, especially when gender equality hasn’t even yet been achieved (which is again why we still need feminism and why it is so prevalent in current society). A majority of what you’re arguing about matriarchy is based purely on poorly supported or uneducated conjectures, not on concrete facts. But regardless of whether or not I refer to 1st world countries or non-1st-world-countries, my point remains unchanged. Gender inequality still exists all around the globe, and that undeniably includes USA, Britain, France, etc. On the 2014 Global Gender Gap Index’s gender pay gap rankings, where countries are ranked from 0 (inequality) to 1 (equality), no country--of course including all 1st world countries--has a 1. According to the Inter-Parliamentary Union, a world org. of 166 parliaments, US has only about 20% in both the House and the Senate; UK has about 23% in parliament; Canada, only 28%; and Japan, 12% (more: http://www.ipu.org...). When you commented on when I apparently accused women of sluts, please reread what I said. None of what I said about the matter indicated that I myself thought of them as sluts, or that I myself pointed to men as evil for seeing them that way. I had indirectly referred to society in general, not myself. And yes, Martial Law allows a presidential to temporarily strip citizens of their constitutional RIGHTS, but the electoral college is not a right. The college, the elections, etc. is a part of the workings of the government, so the powers of the Martial Law would not be able to encompass such a power that exceeds what it is limited to. That would be seen as abuse of power, and again, be grounds for impeachment. To eliminate the electoral college altogether requires a bill, which must directly go through the very difficult obstacles that are the Senate and Congress, and indirectly through the public. Additionally, Martial Law deals with criminals and military matters and exists only to maintain order, so eliminating the electoral college would only incite disorder and thus wouldn’t be authorized under Martial Law. In fact, Lincoln exercised Martial Law by suspending habeas corpus during the Civil War; however, the Supreme Court found it too extreme and ruled it unconstitutional. This is how our government works. Checks and balances.Since presidents and any politician in general requires the support of the public for their legislations to pass, to lie and keep secrets from the public would be counterproductive. Any political advances towards matriarchy would easily be eliminated as long as a significant amount of people continue to believe that feminism stands for equality, as long as equality still ceases to exist, and frankly, as long as people remain sane. Thousands of bills go through Congress a year and only a very small percentage actually become passed (through severe lobbying, especially by interest groups, and public support), most even become altered through the process.
