Women: The Road to Financial Disaster

Boys-only boards: Where the women aren't at the top
29 public companies don't have women on their boards or among their top executives

Aida Alvarez was 16 and studying at an all-girls school when another student asked why Aida was so full of questions. Alvarez remembers the teacher's response to this day: "Aida thinks like a man."

Good quote! Even 16yos know that women have no head for business.

There are 29 companies in the Standard & Poor's 500 that are all male in decision-making roles, with no women on the board of directors or among the top five highest-paid officers, according to Bloomberg Rankings. They range from America's largest maker of uniforms, Cintas, to the company that produces Animal Planet and the Oprah Winfrey Network, Discovery Communications.

Even a Darkie woman knows men are best!

The number of women on boards grew throughout the 1990s and 2000s, but that growth has leveled off in recent years. Experts and female board members interviewed for this story say that when boards have only one woman, it's often just a token gesture of gender diversity.

The vast majority of board members are men, and just 2.6 percent of board chairmanships are held by women, according to Catalyst, a nonprofit that focuses on women and business. Only three companies in the S&P 500 have women who hold more than 40 percent of the board seats: Avon Products, Estée Lauder and Macy's.

Those libtards are playing fast and loose with your money and America's Future - let the figures speak for themselves.

Keep women in the kitchen where they belong!

Little Maria--I beg to differ. Mr. Bathfire's careful analysis give us a clear picture of the folly of women running companies.

There is all of this useless talk about how to bring the economy back to life. That is, tax cuts, more government stimulus and so on.

It is clear from the graphs the way to bring about prosperity is to eliminate women from executive positions in all corporations. I'm going to forward his post to the President right now.
