To understand discrimination in politics, we need to understand "strategic descriptive representation without substantive representation."
Because what is it worth when we have more women, minorities, or Muslims etc. in politics when they cannot stand for the issues that benefit their own groups?

πThe gender gap in political ambition is not self-evident; it can be overcome with socialization efforts in schools, youth party sections, but also families!
βοΈβοΈSo can we promote equal participation of women and men in political roles (candidates or political advisors) and advance gender equality.

Why are men more keen in taking the political plunge than women?
π
ββοΈNot because of the competitive nature of politics
β‘οΈRather driven by political interest, trust in one's political capacities, enjoying convincing others and teenage political discussions at home
