This NBC headline about Japan’s first female prime minister, who happens to be conservative, is exactly what I would expect if the first woman president in the United States were a Republican. If she were a liberal the headline would be something like “Historic Breakthrough for Women in Japan.”
Of course not all women are celebrating, because no politician has full support from their own gender. That is normal in politics. The headline focuses on that angle because it fits an ideological worldview that is common in mainstream media.
Though her election is a milestone in a country that struggles with gender equality, critics say hard-line conservative Sanae Takaichi won’t necessarily help women advance.
