I hadn't really thought about this before now, but all four MPs that have been in the news for the wrong reasons have been women.

those damned women eh? They should know their place!

Did it ever occur to you that if men especially men from the National or ACT or NZ First parties did the same thing nobody would even utter a word?

I can only name one male green MP and I voted for them lol. I don't think your observation is particularly profound
