What if women became more powerful?

www.bbc.com/future/article/20171027-what...ly-stronger-than-men

They aren't? 

Answer me this, why aren't there many more women doing the same dirty, dangerous and unglamorous jobs that men do. They're as capable so why aren't they? As Jordan Peterson asks "where are the women bricklayers?"

Without making this bloody political, I wanted to point out that slim is asking "What if".... not "are they?"

Probably for the same reason there aren't more men doing all the unpleasant cleaning and caring jobs that women do.

And from personal experience there has been a noticeable risein the number of women working in construction over the last decade or so.
Mostly in the professional side (architects, engineers, quantity surveyors etc)
but I have also seen a number of tradeswomen as well. Can't comment about bricklayers
but I am certainly aware of female sparks, chippies, plumbers and plasters so
I'd assume there are at last some female brickies about as well.

Some time ago i posted links to two movies (a short one and a regular one) from the same director, I think they're still on point: www.superwomenmania.com/index.php?option...&id=31087&Itemid=195

(unfortunately i see the short one is deleted from youtube :\ )

The article tackles about abuse, which I agree with both ways. And how physical strength applies to work. Which in our modern world with our machines,.tools and plain old exercise can no longer considered an impediment. Simply putt even "traditional" male jobs are open to women physically. 

By the same token if men became physically the weaker sex, in our modern world ... traditional male jobs becomes close to them?

My partial conclusion is nothing really changes.  (So busy, just dumped this out to free up my head)

That and how they use such powers for me.

Ooooor... our kink would just be the most mainstream one and we'd stand by it. Just like in our current reality most men fantasize about overpowering women, and most women about being overpowered by men. I don't think we love superwomen because it's an unrealistic fantasy, I believe we'd like what we like even if our world was filled with actual superwomen.
