The Biological Roles of Men and Women

    To what extent do you agree that the basic roles of men and women are as follows.
    1) Men provide for and protect women.
    2) Women provide babies and protect them.

    If you are happy to accept these basic biological drives then:
    - What happens if women do not want to be provided for or protected by men. Meaning, what do men do instead to fill this gap?
    - What happens if women do not want to bear children or protect children. Meaning, what do women do instead to fill this gap?

    Even though this is a massive generalisation please try and run with it and see how both men and women can substitute in something else for these basic biological drives.

    PLEASE NOTE: I am not saying these drives define either men or women only that they are part of our collective biological features not merely social constructs. If you wish to argue that they are 100% social constructs go ahead I guess (but preferably in another thread).

    OP quandary.

    How can biology alone determine a role unless your are only genetically an animal both physically and behaviourally?

    If you cannot do this there is probably not much for us to discuss because:
