I found myself thinking: Perhaps we need a few eunuchs in the finance industry
I am not saying this to be nasty about bankers. But in the immediate aftermath of the Lehman crash we were treated to several commentators opining along the general lines: We would not be in this mess if there were more women working in the city, if it were not all so macho. Something which I personally doubt
The idea of eunuchs is one to which we, in Western Europe, both now & in the time of the Byzantine Empire, react with an automatic Nooo!
But these are challenging times & challenging thoughts are what we need
