Even if we accept your thesis, are you prepared to crack a few eggs to make an omelet, to throw women to the wolves with the hope that over time, the men will learn? I, for one, would not do this, as it is cruel and uncaring. In the best case, it is utilitarian, and that is evil. You need some more nuance here. There is a place for mixed sex interactions. Men and women are not interchangeable. They have different needs, some of which require operating in sexually segregated settings, and because of their intrinsic complementarity, coupled with the vices that actually exist in the world and the weaknesses of human beings, there will always be tension. To refuse segregation in certain situations is to willingly put the weaker in danger. It is important that we conform our actions to reality, instead of operating from arbitrary and preconceived notions of how things "should" be. The notion of "equality as sameness" does not help people flourish, because it is hostile and ignores who people actually are and their particular needs, and in this case, the needs proper to their sex.
