Physically we're very weak compared to our nearest cousins in the evolutionary path who are immensely strong, for the very reason that the only tool they ever invented was certain groups using a blade of grass covered in spit to bother termites.
Physical strength has been on decline as a prerequisite to survival for a very long time.

Then perhaps it's time to reassess the male role in society where aggression and physical strength are not always a prerequisite as a good provider of both income and security for a family unit.

Some of you need to read this line a few more times. And then maybe contemplate actually thinking about it.

Well duh
Again, I'm not advocating male dominance, just offering up reasons as to why it is ingrained anthropologically.

Well yes, but it's still used very much. Also, we are still animals. We're not something entirely different. We're just smarter that's all.\
A lot of this is just my experience as having lived as both genders, too...
ehh??

Women invented that awkward feeling you get when you show a woman your penis that you'd spent an entire night dressing up as Sandra Day O'Connor and present a penis monologue with it regarding women's rights and all she does is grimace a bit.

Fast Turtle is a male-to-female transsexual, if I remember correctly.
