 "BEIJING — When Peng Liyuan, China’s glamorous, new first lady, stepped out of the Air China airplane in Moscow next to her husband on his inaugural trip abroad, an old fear stepped out too: as a woman close to power might she bring disaster on the country? It sounds far-fetched, but China has traditionally viewed women and power as mixing badly, a sign of deeply patriarchal traditions that hold that only men can handle it."
