Bear with me on this.
It appears that fewer and fewer men are going to college, and women in big cities are starting to out earn men (http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/03/n...c0149a9a4&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland&emc=rss), and today's jobless rates hurt men more than women (http://finance.yahoo.com/career-work/article/105040/The-Slump:-It's-a-Guy-Thing).
(Ever notice how no one cares when it's men who are suffering? I'm the first person to ever bring this up around here!)
If this trend continues to spread, basically, women could one day be out earning men in general.
For millions of years, men have had the burden of bringing home the bread and now it seems a lot are just backing off, without even realizing they're doing it.
If men eventually stop being the ones who bear the world on their shoulders, and eventually even flee the more dangerous job roles in society for the sake of their own longevity... what happens next? (Note, that's a big "if")
