I don't understand this line of thought. On the one hand, you obviously see women as disadvantaged in the current system. On the other, your ideal world is one in which women basically become men.
Obviously, both men and women should be able to do what they want, whether that be raise a family, provide for that family, some of both, or not have a family at all.
But does is a higher ratio of men to women in a given profession causatively show that women are disadvantaged? Is it only a good ratio when it is exactly 50/50%? You believe so, and don't consider any other alternative.
Or could it be that it is a matter of personal choice based on a biological bias toward certain choices? You don't see the male 99% of garbage collectors as being an issue to be resolved.
Maybe women tend to turn down the high pressure jobs and prefer to spend more time socializing and with family compared to men. Many studies have suggested the same. Could it be an issue of the ratio of testosterone vs. estrogen? Those types of hormonal differences are known to greatly influence the types of choices we're discussing here.
