Hooray! Girl power! A new generation of female leaders of Mexican drug cartels are proving that women are just as capable of being bloodthirsty sociopaths with no regard for human life or decency as their male counterparts! You've come a long way, baby. A number of women are advancing decidedly fast through the bloody world of drug trafficking, often to the great benefit of their respective crime organizations.
There's a reason for this — America's "War on Drugs" has led to Mexico's "War For Drugs," an unending and terrifyingly violent struggle between cartels that has resulted in the death of more than 120,000 people through 2013. And drug kingpins have a short life expectancy. As the old men were mowed down, younger men moved to take their place in leadership positions. And after they've been killed off, women who had been observers — wives, girlfriends, daughters, mothers — take the reins, often with terrifying results. In some cases, they're able to use their sex appeal to manipulate men, or trick authorities into overlooking them because tits.
Woo hoo! Ten points for ladies! Girls rule at drugs! The latest suspected woman in charge is Mexican pop star Melissa Plancarte, also known as “Barbie Grupera” and more affectionately as “She-devil”, whose recently deceased dad was leader of the Knights Templar Cartel.
We've made it, you guys. Feminism has won.
