Do women really want equality or they just want equality in a few situations or areas that they're interested in? For example equal chances at a job promotion in a white collar environment, equal chances at making partner, equal chances at being hired. But truth be told most women don't want to work night shifts, over time or come in on a weekend or public holiday. They prefer a fulfilling job that also allows them personal time. The man however always knows he has to since he's naturally the provider in the family. Outside the white collar work environment, women don't really care for equality. How about equal opportunities at plumbing, welding, mining and construction? No?
Outside the work place it'll get unfavourable for them if they get equality. Are you ready to share the bills 50/50? If you're at home in bed and you hear a noise downstairs, are you willing to go check it out first? If you go out on a date, are you ready to pick up the check atleast 1 out of 2 times? Personally I wouldn't want to have to start doing something I never had to do in the first place. I guess that explains why in some regions men are bigger supporters of gender equality than women. See here Women don't really want it unless it favours them otherwise they have more to lose in general.
