Yes, find Claudia Blumer:
Hans Stöckli wins, and is asked during the election celebration, he must not refrain from solidarity with the woman would have. Because he’s freaking out. This is understandable. Not because the question wouldn’t be so bad. But, because the air must give what has been bubbling for months under the cover.
He has always been polite if he had to defend himself in Interviews that he’s running as a man, although now women are en vogue. Something else he believed in the campaign and in this heated atmosphere can not afford. He wanted to be chosen, he thought, well, he needed to remain politically correct. Stöckli patiently explained why he sees himself as an “old white man” legitimized, to fight for his re-election.
too Bad he didn’t fight sooner – ducted type notabene. He would have to remind you that human rights also apply to men, and that he has, of course, the right to stand for election.
But he put away the emotions, and so it finally came to an uncontrolled outburst of anger that stimulates at least to Think. We want to meet male candidates so hostile, just because gender is not equal yet? In the case of the SP and Green that’s right, not once, you now have more women than men in Parliament. Women and men should be equality not jointly push forward, with an open debate culture that endures even controversial views, with a competition on clever ideas?
Unfortunately, the discussion today is so dogmatic and not more stubborn, is that critics who wish to speak – with the exception of a few anti-feminists from the right edge of the spectrum of opinion is not a big win. The other silence. Until it chased away a.
no, says Christoph Lenz:
How do you recognize a left-wing men? They whine even when they win. With Paul Rechsteiner, Roberto Zanetti, and Hans Stöckli were sprightly on Sunday, but greying social Democrats as Ständeräte confirmed. Nevertheless, the claim has persisted that the men had it in the Left today is particularly difficult. Because they are men.
As a proof for this victim myth scenes like those that took place yesterday in the city hall of Bern: Hans Stöckli lost after its electoral success the nervous and harassed a journalist, because he had erfrecht to address in the Interview, the question of Gender.
Now, one might discuss, for example, about whether or not a politician is still wearable, if he loses so quickly his temper. But the case, Stöckli, many observers read different: See how they suffer, the left men! You are at the Limit! Let you in peace now!
a systematic deprivation of the men on the Left can be no question. In the governments and parliaments are well represented in the trade unions and other centres of power anyway. Clearly, many SPler find, after 16 years with the men in the party leadership it was time for a woman. But that is not the expression for the battle of the sexes in the case of the Comrades, but only a question of thematic coherence. To request the SP to equality, but only men of the party presidency left?
What has changed with the women’s strike of last June: The equal rights is more in the foreground. Voters of the SP and the Green weights of the gender question more, if you fill out the ballot. And a Council of States must be like, that it is put to him. Even in the hour of his greatest triumph.
