Role Reversal OF Genders

A Study of over 5000 American adults has revealed that men of today want babies and commitment when women are more likely to want independence in their relationships. This reflects the effect of massive social changes that have taken place on Gender relations in recent times. It is reported that more than half of single men want to have children compared to just 46% of women. "The results reveal the effects of the growing gender role reversal", said Helen Fisher, Biological Anthropologist at Rutgers University and Chief Scientific Adviser at dating website match.com which commissioned the study. As a matter of fact the onset of Industrial Revolution has resulted in women getting economic equality on par with men. It is no doubt a good sign of women empowerment even in urban areas of developing nations. Career women in India’s Metro Cities are not lagging behind in such economic empowerment. In the days to come they would also prefer economic equality rather than family bonding giving more reason for concern to Indian males.
