Congrats. but the title might be a bit of a stretch.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanae_Takaichi

Quote:
Takaichi played the drums and piano during her youth and enjoyed heavy metal music.


The ABC's spin was disappointing, as usual, with the article titled: "Sanae Takaichi becomes Japan's first female PM, but some say it is not a win for women"

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10-21/japan-first-female-pm-sanae-takaichi/105911682

The reason a female PM is not a "real" win for women: because the ABC disagrees with her conservative political views.

Quote:
"It's almost like she's popular despite her gender, rather than because of it," political expert Tina Burrett, from Sophia University, said.


Shocked

WTF is that supposed to mean? That it is only a win for women if a woman gets elected based on her gender, not her political merits?

People who can't distinguish between etymology and entomology bug me in ways I cannot put into words.

Yeah, not that she is a hard line racist against the Chinese or even fat caucasians like yourself.
