Part 4/11:
A recurring theme is the observation that women seem to be adopting traditionally masculine traits—independent, assertive, and sometimes dismissive of male efforts. The frustration is palpable as some wonder aloud why women want to be "us" so badly, questioning the societal push for female empowerment that led women to eschew traditional gender roles. The argument suggests that female empowerment has inadvertently backfired, leaving women in roles that clash with societal expectations, and thus making it harder for men to navigate these new dynamics.
