Yes, politicians maneuvere their supporters into key positions. Plus Trump doesn't appear to allow dissent

Doesn't this just support the opposite of your idea though? Regardless of gender, politics is about power, and it rewards those who do what is necessary to gain and retain power. We wouldn't just be holding a lottery to randomly appoint women to positions of power - we'd be selecting for (in one way or another) the most power-hungry women in society.

My original point was that IME women in power put less misogynistic policies in place.
