"a basic flip flop of roles would be expected, and certainly after womens "time" becomes worth so much more than mens time, women will have to give up all the menial unpaid tasks that they used to do - esp around the house."

Thank God I'm no longer involved in this mess. I'm married, and older. But it is my observation, (guess? opinion?), that some of the characteristics of the traditional role models are genetic traits. Women are better at multi tasking, and nurturing. Men are better at linear thought and abstract problem solving.
Women will certainly be able to mold many men into househusbands. And then they will feel empty, wishing they had a man in the old style mold of a man.
Just my guess.

I dont think they are genetic at all, as shown by how much women have changed since the 1950's, they mostly used to fit into the mold of Mrs Cleaver, now they are aggressive, run you off the road, and most women dont even wear skirts anymore, or even own one.

As far as being dissatisfied, when women outnumber men in college by 60% or more, and when all the high paid professions are now mostly female, it is inevitable that there will be a shortage of men who make more or who are better educated than women - it is basic math. Therefore, Women have to "change" to expect less from a man, to expect a less educated, a less paid partner. The one that owns the gold makes the rules, and women who make more than husbands will be the ones in charge, and men will have to do the more meaningless tasks in a marraige because womens time will be worth so much more than a mans time. When a woman manager or physician or attorney or biologist, etc comes home from a long day at work making mega bucks, she will expect dinner and a clean house.

Your guess is right on the money.

Pretty soon women will be in the recliners watching the Browns game and men will be fetching the cold beers...

Women feel the same. I hate doing the cooking (besides being bad at it) and cleaning bit and find those chores very restrictive.
