• If you were forced to decide whether to make both genders masculine or feminine, which one would you

So basically you were by some weird ass storyline faced with a decision: Either you make women more masculine or men more feminine. The other gender would stay the same because they already are for the most part masculine/feminine. Mention the things that affected your decisionmaking and why you ended up with the option that you took. Personally, if I look at both options I see option a: making men more feminine. I can see this at work in Asia where boy bands are wearing make-up, being kind of androgynous and having lots of fancy hairdos and pretty much smooth skin without any grooves or muscular definition, which are traits often described as feminine. Stuff like being reliant on others is also seen often as a feminine trait (which i do not agree with) so if that were accounted too, people would be more tight-knit and less people would end up being alone as long as they got within the circles, but those who ended up alone would damn well stay alone. Romance would become a bigger part and relationships could really go either way, but overall emotions would become much more central in love on both genders. I feel like this could be a potentially good choice. Then there's option b: making women masculine. I am incredibly biased towards this and I will explain why soon enough. First of all, women would be pretty much [I]expected[/I] to be fit, to be independent, strong and decisive, things often seen as masculine traits (again i disagree, this should be a unisex trait IMO). Girls bragging about how many times they got laid last month would be a common sight in bars and both genders would be talking big game. In family life kids could have a very different life. If both parents were showcasing a strong and independent role model, I'm not sure how detrimental that could be to the newborn's development in its childhood years. Of course, making women masculine wouldn't REMOVE their instinctive drives, just dampen them. I'd pick option B, because even if it might become a pretty hostile world to the less determined people, it would be much more progressive in my opinion. [B]NOTE: The point isn't to ask if you like things the way they are, the point is that if you were actually forced to choose this which one you would take.[/B] It's probably not optimal but just theorycrafting and exploring people's ideals.

men more feminine. I don't get in with other dudes so it wouldn't really bother me, but having women more masculine is just ehhhhhhhhhhh... no
"whether to make both genders masculine or feminine" Doesn't this mean to make BOTH genders either masculine or feminine? Like both at the same time. EDIT: sorry.
men more feminine because masculine men turns is kinda a turn off
Men more feminine. Less testosterone means less dumb dickwaving that leads to dumb decisions and gets people killed.
Masculinity is kind of attractive, but for the sake of society, I would make people more feminine.
Masculinity, way more fun times going out
