Yes, millions upon millions of traditional American, healthy, educated, hard-working families for whom they provide that steadying force, the calm touch, the tender approach, and the firm discipline.
Let's not judge women based on the caricatures around us today! Simplest thing to do: look at the women you share your life with. I hope you have someone you really treasure and who truly is your 'better half.'

Yeah. I personally know one that runs an organization with nearly one billion in annual sales. Sales has grown every freaking year.

There are investment professionals that actively seek out women run companies - and then bet against those companies.
Women are usually complete failures at running large organizations….especially publicly traded ones.
Some of the biggest mutual fund flops have come under the direction of women leadership.

Has GM not basically gone to shite over that timespan? I don’t think this is an example that I would use.

Maybe there's something about English women as opposed to American women.
Yeah, like Julia Child. She had the first T.V. cooking show. And she served as an intelligence researcher for the Brittain's Secret Service during WWII.

Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders
Jerry Jones really runs them, but he lets the supervisor ladies do the day-to-day.
They are the only successful part of the Cowboys for a couple of decades

You must be a real fricken delight to be around.

Who gets credit for Margaret Hamiltion's success at NASA?
Who developed software engineering and coded the moon landing before she did?
Here's one: Grace Hopper

Grace Brewster Hopper (née Murray; December 9, 1906 – January 1, 1992) was an American computer scientist, mathematician, and United States Navy rear admiral.[1]
She was a pioneer of computer programming. Hopper was the first to devise the theory of machine-independent programming languages, and used this theory to develop the FLOW-MATIC programming language, which was a major influence on COBOL, an early high-level programming language still in use today.
She was also one of the first programmers on the Harvard Mark I computer. She is credited with writing the first computer manual, "A Manual of Operation for the Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator", and is often credited with creating the first compiler.

My mom.
Started as a teller at hometown bank, retired 30 years later over all non-loan operations for multi-location bank roll up. Newspaper did a 2 page spread when she retired, she won multiple local awards for leadership and volunteerism, and was the subject of a scholarship paper written by my brother’s ex-wife after they divorced, highlighting her leadership and integrity.
She may not have moved the world, but she made a difference in a lot of lives she touched.
