No, because... Men are stronger
The survival instinct is innate in both men and women.
Women can be just as strong or stronger(it's only a matter of training, the fact that men are more pugnacious and spoiling for a fight isn't good on them) than men.In fact in most oriental/martial arts a lighter, more agile body is an advantage.Size does not matter, skill does.
And propagation/procreation in today's world is impossible sans woman but not sans man.
maybe fast forward to you means going back a few decades :P
Men are definitely not stronger than women. Men always pretend to be strong by keeping their problems to themselves, hoping it will go away. Let's look at the depression rates - higher percentage goes to men.
Also, has anyone heard of the quote "behind every successful man, there is a woman" ?
Is that a threat?
Studies have shown numerous times that the ONLY way a man is superior to a woman is physical strength. This is becoming less and less useful with technological advances, and regardless of how muscular men may be, it nowhere near deserves to be referred to as the "driving force behind human progress."
And I think that when women, as you put it, "accept themselves as they are" this will restore the natural order and we will be a much more peaceful, happy and well-rounded matriarchal society. The problem here is that men are too confident, and women aren't confident enough... which is mostly due to the fact that men have convinced women they are weaker and useless without them for.... well since the beginning of our existence. This is a fallacy. and the sooner women realize that as a whole, the better off the world will be.
Let's face it, it's a dog eat dog world out there. However, males are at the very least equipped to fight back. Without males, the females who "single-handedly" created our species would not have survived long, as they would lack both food and security. The inventiveness of man and the protective instincts he feels towards both woman and child are what have ensured the survival of our species.
Fast forward to a time when people are living in cities, and the need for protection is no longer as acute. By their strength and their wits, it is of course men who rule, and women are at their mercy. Of course it is hard for females to admit that their gender is subordinate to ours, which is why the great gender equality project has started. However, this project isn't about having the genders recognised as equal - it is about women adopting the worst characteristics of men, while berating us for being what nature and our mothers made us.
When women accept themselves as they are and stop trying to emulate men, perhaps then they can start to talk about superiority. In the mean-time, men will continue to be the driving force behind human progress, and if you push it too far, you may just find we come to regret our tolerance and react the only way we - according to some of the female debaters - know how.
When you said that "size does not matter skill does" thats a lie from personal experience i have fought boys bigger than me and i was faster lighter and more skilled in street fighting but he was just to strong and a few hits i was on the ground counting stars. so just because you are more skilled and faster while we are bigger and slower does mean we cant get every time like you can we just have to get you once and you are finished
