We are still proprietary over the domestic realm even as we take over new professional realms, and that is a real problem.

In the US in recent years, around a third of all open management positions have gone to women. My research over the last three years has shown that the trend is going in the same direction at all levels. And by the way, it's not necessarily that the rise of women is causing the end of men - it's more the other way around. An increasing number of men are failing during their education, losing their jobs and then not managing to get back on their feet, so women have had to step in. The driving force here isn't feminist conviction, it's economic necessity.

As we get used to women in power, we are likely to discover that they behave much like powerful men - vain, entitled, always looking for more.

Factories not what they used to be - they're all extremely high-tech.

To apply for a gifted program, children as young as 4 are required to sit through hour-long verbal exams.

In China, a lot of the opening up of private entrepreneurship is happening because women are starting businesses, small businesses, faster than men.

Green jobs - those are jobs that feel like new economy jobs; they do require some training.
