Remember that scene in “House of Cards” when Robin Wright’s character, the president, opened the doors to show off her new cabinet and every person around the table was a woman? I remember it clearly and it took my breath away.
Welcome to Iceland. As of this year, women are serving as:
President of Iceland (Halla Tómasdóttir)
Prime Minister (Kristrún Mjöll Frostadóttir)
Bishop of Iceland (Guðrún Karls Helgudóttir)
National Police Commissioner (Sigríður Björk Guðjónsdóttir)
State Prosecutor (Sigríður J. Friðjónsdóttir)
I also appreciate the dóttir. I would be a Peterdóttir instead of Swedish Peter’s son, which seems trans forcing.
Agree with you, Karen! We can hope and hold out for an all-female Cabinet SOMEDAY...
