Where Do You Stand: Taking the Initiative in Bed
For whatever reason, men always get the rep of being the only half of a couple who regularly initiates sex.

Male opposition leader Samuel Ntoutoume Ndzeng believes that the country needs a female leader, so he's making the pretty progressive suggestion that the country's male population should "sleep with their clothes on" if a man wins.
