MEN: What role would women play in your ideal society? *not trolling*?

Asked by Sarah at 30 April,2013
I'm bored. Anti-Feminists/MRAs spend a lot of time talking about what they think women shouldn't be doing, but not about what they think women *should* be doing. So gentlemen, where would women be in your ideal world? Would they: A) be a slaves, bought and sold with no rights? B) Grouped with children, having human rights, but not the right to vote or own property etc? Or C) Live back in the 50's where women could legally be independent if they wanted to, but society was very against it? Or would you like something different? Ladies, your thoughts are welcome too. What do you think they want? Everybody can answer freely, I'm not trying to prove anything, and I won't report any answers, scout's honor (can't guarantee others won't report you though, so watch the language). EDIT: Wow you guys are so boring. Ima go play Skyrim.

As a woman, I believe that modern men (most men under 120 years old) view me as an equal citizen with rights equal to theirs. Do I view the world realistically?

Other Answers:
  1. I am a female anti-fem. The reason for that is because I don't hate men. I am not an MRA because I think that is just the male equivalent of feminism in its early stage the last thing we need is another special interest group.

    No one really thinks any of those things you listed. Don't take trolls seriously. They post that stuff to get a rise out of you.

  3. D) what we have now. women, basically, having the same role as men.

    Very few people - even anti-feminists, MRAs, whatever, want to introduce any of those bizarre scenarios you're talking about.
  4. I'm an antifeminist and an MRA. In my ideal society, men and women should be equal under the law. We're not equal in every way, but we do and must compliment each other.
    I don't think men or women *should* be doing anything specific.

    I don't know any MRA who thinks men or women should be in any role they don't choose on their own.
    Some roles and jobs are suited better to a specific sex, but no one should be forced to live up anyone else's expectations.
    So, neither a, b, or c.
  5. I think most (normal) men are happy with the status quo in first-world countries. I mean, we are pretty much there in terms of freedom and fulfillment for both sexes, barring a few minor tweaks. Most men want women who are equal partners etc. IMO.

    If we can just survive climate change, a generation or two will see society nicely levelled out and everybody happy.

    I am a natural optimist.
  6. IF they "deserve" equal rights, THEN they SHOULD HAVE equal "responsibilities" and "DUTIES".

    "rights, responsibilities and duties" should all be connected to each other.

    adults DECIDE to impair themselves with alcohol, and they are responsible for their actions afterward, assuming they are still conscious.
    and...
    if 18 year old men must register for the draft, then women equally must do so.

    my personal 2 most egregious instances of "non-equal" responsibilities.
