Reference :- Sky News host , Rowan Dean , demonstrated the clarity of his thinking .

Reference :-    Rowan Dean believes that songstress Madonna is being hypocritical for condemning " the so called patriarchy ".  

Damn good point Rowan . I like the way you think . Madonna is a woman , and she certainly has done well for herself despite " the so called patriarchy. "    There is such an elegant logic to this , that I reckon you should pursue the idea further .

For example , the great jazz trumpet player  Louis Armstrong made a packet in the USA during an era of  " so called racial segregation ".   

 And hedge fund manager John Paulson made billions during  " the so called Global Economic Crisis " of 2007 . 

 And Englishman Douglas Bader became one of the most successful fighter pilots  of WW2  despite his " so called paraplegia ".  

I could go on , but that should get you started with your theme , best summarized as ....

 '" It's pretty obvious that if somebody appears to succeed when the odds are stacked against them , it is not because they are exceptional , but because the odds were not stacked against them in the first place ". 

  Bertrand Russell must be rolling in his grave thinking  " Why didn't I come up with that first ? "

 Your comrade , Ken .
