One of the most important evolutions marking modern Greek culture is the ever increasing presence of women in the realms of both economics and politics. This phenomenon has given significant rise to new social concerns among which lies the issue of linguistic adaptation to the new roles of the female gender.\ The present research is an interdisciplinary one, related both to social sciences and linguistics and dealing with the analytical category of {\textquotedblleft}social gender.{\textquotedblright}\  Specifically, the research in question is interested in the field of politics, which is traditionally the last bulwark of Greek patriarchal society. In other words, this investigation raises the question of whether or not the female presence in the centers of authority and power is adequately reflected in the Greek language.\ Moreover, the following parameters are thoroughly investigated: firstly it is attempted to register the grammatical problems emerging after the end of the male monopoly concerning power, while at the same time the first linguistic approaches to the aforementioned problem are examined.\  There is also mention of the ways in which the State and other official bodies deal with this issue as well as of the everyday use of gender demarcations of various offices in the Media. Lastly, the attitude of women, either individually or collectively, towards this issue is methodically examined.
