where are female politicians?

It is surprising and disappointing to note that most female politicians become failers in political arena while most of our societies are dominated by female people. One may begin to wonder that why is it that females are not supporting each other. In most cases women who try to take their political carrier serious are let down by losing during elections. This shows that other women wouldn't be giving them enough support.For example in Botswana, in the 2009 general elections, the country’s two largest political parties, the ruling Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) and the opposition Botswana National Front (BNF), each fielded just three female candidates even though there are 57 constituencies. The third largest party, the Botswana Congress Party (BCP), was slightly more progressive, putting up four female candidates. The sad thing is that only two of them won while more women participated in voting than men. During these elections 403,000 women registered to vote compared to 320,000 men.

What is the most sad thing is that women are the ones who seem to be active during campaigns than men, while they tend to lose at the end of the day. For example in Zimbabwe women are the one who are found dancing and singing during the elections campaign, however most female politicians lose.
