As much as I would like to say that women would make the world a better place, given the opportunity, I honestly don't think that's true. I would have to agree with many of the people who have voiced opinions here including KGB and Attolia. Women, in my opinion, tend to be a lot more vicious than men. When men fight, it's usually a couple punches and then they're done. When women fight, at the very least, you'll probably get your hair ripped out by your roots. I can't speak for every woman, but as a broad generalization, women hate women. A woman's biggest enemy is another woman, not a man. This is probably part of the reason women don't already rule. Who are women jealous of? It's almost never a man, but a woman with bigger breasts, more money, more beauty, a better looking husband, car, house, etc. The list goes on. It only takes one man to come between the greatest friendship between two women and make them hate each other. Think about it. When two best friends stop being friends, the cause more often than not, traces back to a man/boy. Either they both liked him, or one has a boyfriend and the other feels abandoned, or any other number of reasons. I think there would probably be less wars, but I agree that the wars would probably be much more violent. Women tend to completely destroy their enemies, not so much through physical harm, but by humiliation, words, etc. Just consider what highschool was like. Can you imagine that on a larger scale? I have to agree with what Podslapper said: "Demand competent leaders, not female leaders." I don't think that men will ever be thought of as the weaker sex, mostly because as a society, we put more focus on the outward appearance. Men are seen as having great strength and are much stronger than women because biologically, for the most part anyway, they are! If we stop thinking in terms of outward appearance and place more value on ideas and the whole person, men MIGHT become the weaker sex. I'm not saying that men are weaker in their thoughts, but rather, women will have more of a chance. I do however, think that things would be different in terms of how men act, but I think the pressure to compete would still be there. It's just part of who are as humans. We always want to have the best of everything, as well as BE the best at everything. It might change what the areas of competition are though.
