Let\u2019s face it. Something tagged exclusively for or about women is all too often a revenue generating strategy alongside a way to deflect criticism about the lack of attention to women and an opportunity for the powers-that-be to say, \u201clook what we do for women.\u201d Unfortunately, often, what they \u201cdo\u201d is not much.<\/p>\n

Politico\u2019s opening news release about \u201cWomen Rule\u201d said, \u201cMore so now than ever, women are driving the conversation in the political, business and advocacy arenas. .\u2009.\u2009. Women Rule is meant to recognize those women and share the innovative ways they are influencing some of the nation\u2019s most important issues.\u201d After waxing on about the influence of women, they then could only find 21 women they called \u201cthinkers, doers and dreamers\u201d as part of \u201cThe Politico 50,\u201d which was made up of 81 individuals.<\/p>\n

Food & Wine magazine touted its January \u201call-women\u2019s issue\u201d but could only find two women to feature among their 11 \u201cbest new chefs\u201d in 2015.<\/p>\n

CSIS featured Penny Pritzker and Samantha Power among others in their Smart Women\/Smart Power series, but in 2014 they could only find one woman to speak at their premier forum titled, naturally, \u201cStatesmen\u2019s Forum.\u201d<\/p>\n

And what about TED? Despite great women appearing at TEDWomen, one can only find 33 out of 102 participants who appeared at this year\u2019s main event. Maybe there should also be a TEDMen and the best of both should be featured at a TEDEverybody.<\/p>\n
