  • "The game as it is played is perceived to be a bit too rough for some women. And of course we don’t say that women must not allow themselves to be tested as leaders."
  • "Women find it difficult to go out there and swim with all the good, bad, ugly. So they are more reserved. They are more of a gender that wants to be in a more safer place than the politics."
