In an ideal world, both male and female would be perfect for any tasks, even with the leadership of a country. Every country had its greatest moments under the authority of a unique potent leader. Let's not forget the first and to date only woman Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi, and her extraordinary contribution to India's political scene. However, backed up by millions of pages of golden eras written in the worldwide book of history, I believe that the male sex has proven much more worthy and men have contributed so much more to liberty and prosperity of a country.

Throughout the ages, mainly because of the patriarch families and beliefs, the male sex has proven worthy of keeping up with hard decisions, working in a limited timetable as well as being tactical under pressure. Moreover, male leaders have been either carefully picked by their forefather in a monarchical noble environment or rigorously selected in a democratic fashion. From Pericles' Golden Age in Ancient Greece up to the former President of South Africa, Nelson Mandela, men have continuously shown their ability to lead wisely to prosperity and success. A position in maintaining a field that affects the well-being of a country, may that be the economy or the coordination of diplomatic issues, is taskful and highly time-wasting. Men are known for their risky decisions, and even though they do not know the accurate outcome of their decisions, lucky or not, they are right. Those decisions are taken in great consideration before being forwarded in public.

This takes us to the my next argument: potency of multi-tasking and aggressiveness. A male figure is by far more muscle-oriented, whereas the female body is a synonym for elegance. Male persons are actually made to endure no matter what the cost is, all it requires is a powerful and dexterous mind to cooperate with the body in order to shape up a possible good cogent leader.

Last but not least, studies have shown that females can be driven carelessly by their feelings much more than men would. Although this is not absolute, it is logical that such feelings could result to amiss aftermaths.

Despite my strong appreciation of a man-driven community, it all sums up in a simple equation, which adds male and female, succeeding a close hardy partnership. Where there is a powerful man, there's a more powerful woman, an ideal duo for an excellent relationship that can help developing countries to blossom and excel.
