Behind Every Successful Man is a Woman

Women seem to be stepping out of the shadows of their men in recent events. For example, i was ironing my clothes while watching the news yesterday and a thought stuck me. Hillary Clinton. When did she take the limelight? Wan Azizah. People are still raving over her, not her husband, after PKR's success in the recent general elections. Fallen political figures have had their wives taken over their roles in the public arena. A strategy? to reclaim their power through a different approach? I wonder what is the true cause behind these women's fame all of a sudden. Is it because their husbands can no longer tug the heartstrings of the public and therefore their wives are sent out to do the job? Afterall, women do empathise better and are therefore more wholesome effective leaders as shown by research. However, during Anwar's and Bill Clinton's reign, their wives were constantly behind their backs, supporting and running errands in regards of their public appearances. Now that their wives have taken over their roles, where are these men? So what is it actually? Women are proving to perform better as leaders? Women are better leaders to bet on because they are better mediators? Or is it just for a simple reason that Women can outshine men if given an opportunity ( in politics per say). Generally, educated and notable political figures are said to marry a woman of equal status quo and intelligence. What about normal laymen? I've heard tons of stories where good educated men would consider a dumb blonde as a perfect mate. They do not appreciate being questioned, after all, the more successful a men, the larger the ego. I guess we can say the same goes for politicians. They have a strategy. While they're at their prime, the wives take the back seat and play the role of a Dumb blonde. When they're losing their hold, the wives come out to save the day. Truth is, women aren't dumb after all. There's no dumb blonde. Even dumb blondes are smart, because they play their cards well and act how their man would prefer them to. Women are good actors when it comes to keeping their man. Soothing their egos for now goes a long way. Politicians or not, truth is, not many successful men can handle their women to appear strong. They should only appear strong in defense of their husband's innocence of commiting an affair or being charged with corruption. But in other matters, sit back and wait till the last minute of their husband's breaking point, and then step out of the shadow to save the day!
