Thoughts have no sex.
Nature abhors a virgin - a frozen asset.
To put a woman on the ticket would challenge the loyalty of women everywhere to their sex, because it would be made to seem that the defeat of the ticket meant the defeat for a hundred years of women's chance to be truly equal with men in politics.
I was wondering today what the religion of the country is - and all I could come up with is sex.
There aren't many women now I'd like to see as President - but there are fewer men.
I refuse the compliment that I think like a man, thought has no sex, one either thinks or one does not.
