Why Female Politicians Foster Peace: “Women Have Been And Will Be A Pacifying Force”

10:00 am, February 10th | by Amy Tennery


Harvard University psychologist Steven Pinker explains why women leaders are less likely to go to war: “Over the long sweep of history, women have been and will be a pacifying force. Traditional war is a man’s game: tribal women never band together to raid neighboring villages.”

Pinker’s view was included in a larger piece in CNN on women, politics and peace, written by former U.S. Assistant Secretary of Defense Joseph Nye.

    Is this Havard University psychologist Steven Pinker so ignorant or is suffering from amnesia? Or perhaps he is a moron. May be he is History challenged. Traditional women in other parts of the World have led in Wars.  Wasn’t it just “yesterday” the woman in the picture above banned up with two other women in Obama’s administration got Obama to escalate the number of US troops in Afghanistan and to invade Libya? If this psychologist is stupid, people are not and they are watching every step of the way.
