The article discusses the existing leadership gap between men and women, emphasizing the societal patterns that lead to disparities in business and political domains. TikTok user Mary raises critical questions about why, despite girls often demonstrating early maturity and capability, they tend to fall behind men in leadership roles. The commentary highlights the cultural double standards that excuse boys' impulsive behaviors while undermining women's potential, ultimately suggesting a systemic bias that values men's leadership over women's, which perpetuates gender inequality.
"At every stage of development in a woman or little girl we kind of agree that little girls outpace boys. If you have a little girl and she talks early everyone is like, 'Well yeah, girls are early talkers... Then you get to high school [boys] ... are impulsive and they make bad decisions ... you can't hold them accountable."
"So where does the jump happen where men run ahead and women fall behind so much so that women are not leaders? It's men. Men are intelligent, rational leaders."
