Yeah, I didn't mean for the politics example to be the focus...

I think many women (nearly as many men) have had access, income and time to be creative in the last 50 or so years. with this new opportunity i'm just disappointed with the results.

new middle or luxury classes have resulted great works in history. da Vinci, Plato, Shakespeare, Mozart had time to ponder and create after a cultural shift.

maybe it is sexism, on both sides. can it be said that women have not contributed as much to the arts because they choose to focus on families and would rather be a spectator than a performer?
