"Now women, I just want you to know; you are not perfect, but what I can say pretty indisputably is that you're better than us [men].”

Former U.S. President Barack Obama said that while speaking at a leadership event in Singapore, according to the BBC.

Obama went on to predict the world would see significant improvements in "just about everything" if every nation were run by women.

Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama are currently running the Obama Foundation. They set it up to mentor young leaders around the world.
