A terrible loss for women, and another win for toxic masculinity

Article here. Excerpt:

'Ardern’s departure is a sore loss for women and girls who had taken heart from seeing a woman run a country with agility, intelligence and humanity, her ethics intact after five-and-a-half years in the job.

It is a terrible blow to women’s rights at a time when the backlash against feminism — no, make that against women — has been brutal and will get worse. Women should never underestimate how much they are hated. Every week, rage and violence against women has been rising like sea levels. Toxic masculinity reigns.'

A female PM resigns b/c the BS associated w/ the job has gotten too tiresome and now it's somehow the fault of "toxic masculinity". How about this?: She just tapped out. No reason to continue. Time to retire.

Actually I think we'd be better off if more pols, male and female, quit more frequently.

I can think of a few politicians that I'd like to see quit.
