As Gender Roles blur the lines of whats "feminine" and "masculine" how will that effect culture in the future?
You also have to ume that in our western society the amount of actual labour jobs are decreasing as we turn more and more to service based jobs. Anyone can do a service based job, but jobs that need physical strength will always need males. Just look at your choices of profession-"male nurse", "woman lawyer", "lady barber". Except for some modern exceptions (mostly due to techonolgical advances) professions like soldier, construction, mines, etc etc remain male dominated. This gender bending can only continue if we can continue the way we live with all of our conveniences and diversions. All you have to do is look to the third world for where we were and as far as i'm concerned where we're heading. In my opinion (2 cents worth), we can't and won't be able to maintain our current lifestyles. I might be swayed in the argument about gender bending if it has been around for a couple of hundred years, but let's face it, it's only a recent occurrence, and may just be a fad.
