OT: Male politicians held to higher standard than females

Where are the screeching feminists pontificating that this man shouldn't stand beside his wife after she cheated on him with a teenager?  If the genders were reversed, their thick, clucking tongues would be in overdrive condemning the man and urging the woman not to stand beside him. 

Instead, the man is saddled with his wife's alleged financial improprieties (brought on by her illicit affair), and his career is in shambles.  Do you think the screeching feminists would allow that to happen if the genders were reveresed?  The question scarcely survives its statement.

Note that I am not defending the propriety of what the NI leader did -- but his malfeasance seems to have been passive (he did not report wrongdoing by his wife). Reverse the genders and tell me a woman would be hounded from office for that!

Men are held to higher standards than women, period. This is due mainly to the fact that a man's mate value is based on his status.
