I actually find nothing wrong with groupthink. 
Actually what happens
in a male/female relationship is that voice and 
position on issues are
determined beforehand.  It then becomes the male's role 
to verbalize
these to the group.  Usually the female is "pudgy" due 
to pregnancy
or running after the kids or even later, menopause and 
does well to
assume the background and allow husband to have the 
podium.

Many strong women never fit into the male power 
structure.  They
simply humor the male knowing full well that male 
longevity is much
less than that of a female.
