I get that this is the way to see more "women in power", but I wouldn't recommend goverment, even robots and a walking computer would have higher chances of outperforming us all soon.
Because we (general) want to have some say in the laws and other parts that usually come along with a civilized society? In time the format of our nation may change (that's a generic statement without knowing what form it would take), but here we are now.

Only 23 out of 100 senators are women. That's the main reason why there are so few women on committees. More women need to run for senator.

The professional world is like a **** test to see how much stress toll you got onto yourself, work ethic is becoming less encouragable due to the rise of technology anyways.m.

Yeah women aren't going to stop demanding all the leadership and high status jobs and for men to do all the dirty work, but I'm not going to stop opposing that.

If anything, the opposite is really true.

People work a lot more than they used to. An ever/always-connected world are the new realities.

I worked from a plane on my to/from a recent work trip. I routinely work more than 50-60 hours a week, most of the extra work not at the office.
