One thing I've found curious over the years is that women were compelled to take on 'manly' qualities in order to compete in this world, when what was really needed was for men to move a little more in the direction of 'womanly' characteristics. Cutthroat competition has taken the planet to the brink, in more ways than one, and a whole lot of cooperation will be needed going forward if we're going to have a chance in hell of staying off of extinction's radar.
