Most (or definitely many) fashion designers are men. And women can be firefighters -if you can tow the line. As you say, society is changing so...what? Butch is not a typical woman and most women are typically (stereotypically) feminine. So what? You are a happy butch. Good for you.

Every woman who stands on tedex probably will talk about gender bias. And how they can be men too. Why are they running away from femininity

[benardio]

What? It's difficult for a woman to be a firefighter because it needs alot of physical strength.... is that a stereotype???!!!

Men are *not* starting to become stay at home fathers.

Btw: this girl would be incapable of performing a fair number of male oriented jobs that require physical strength.

[TriggeredJelly]

Men can be fashion designers. Women probably cannot be (effective) firefighters due to weightlifting requirements, i.e. pure strength. Women need to be caring and submissive in the short period of time they're pregnant and breastfeeding. If a woman is not psychologically prepared for that, she'll be a bad mother.

Aside from childbirth and physically demanding jobs, men and women can be anything they want to be, stereotypes be damned.

Future men will be obidient servant of her Women.

While women will run the world as leaders. Women will wear suit and live like a boss.

Men will be happy staying at home draping sarees and all feminine clothes.
