It was mildly flattering that Sina thought he stood a decent chance of winning, but since she was irritated he tried not to look too smug about it.
"No one expects women to talk about politics," he countered. There were some politics that could safely be called "women's issues" — things that pertained to children, education, charity, that sort of thing — but it wasn't as though women universally cared about or had strong opinions on them. And she wasn't the one running for office. If anything, he expected she would have more conversations angled her way about her ability to plan and host the annual Minister's Ball than anything serious. Not that this would be much of a silver lining for Sina, who would probably rather have debated tariff policy than masquerade decor.
"Look, if you want we can make some of the events your events," he offered as an olive branch. "A hospital fundraiser, or something."
