“
Politics is a lot like sex - if you want something, you have to ask for it, if they’re not doing it right you’ve got to speak up and show them and if you still don’t get what you want, then there is nothing wrong with doing it yourself.
— Jennifer Beals
What It Means
This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "Politics is a lot like sex - if you want something, you have to ask for it, if they’re not doing it right you’ve got to speak up and show them and if you still don’t get what you want, then there is nothing wrong with doing it yourself." in the context of "Q&A at the L5 Convention, Blackpool, UK (16 November 2008)" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
