{A Million Smart Women}

Did you read Will Marre's "We Need A Million Smart Women" blog post? Or "liked" his "A Million Smart Women" Facebook page? The women's leadership advocate explains what's behind his plan:

You see the idea of “A Million SMART Women” is very simple. 

Brain research and social science from the University of Wisconsin confirms that men mostly think about status, control, wealth and sex. Most men focus on their short-term self-interest. Whereas women are the force of civilization. Women tend to be holistic thinkers. Psychologists give this feminine form of intelligence the practical name of contextual thinking.  It allows them to think of both short-term and long-term consequences at the same time.  Female empathy enables most women to think in communitarian ways. The “common good” is most frequently put above “my good, my way, my fear.”
