No man don't really have anymore power than women. I don't expect strong women. Don't generalise, not all men think the same, and same goes for women, not all think the same.

Generalising is a negative attitude.

women have more power over men, terms of access to sex. women can get sex a lot easier than man could.
You could put yourself on a dating site, and sex on the same day. Most men can't do that.

Men don't control the dating scene, women actually do, more so than they realise. 1 women can have 10-20 guys on the go, us guys its not even going to close, unless your brad Pitt, or David beckam

I think it's about as realistic as expecting men be excellent at nurturing people's emotions.

I don't understand what power means anyway in today's society. What natural advantage in power do I have as a guy? Of course if we crash land in a jungle, I am probably more powerful than most women there (assuming they don't have more survival training than me). My natural strength gives me advantage I can leverage in such environments and probably use to gain some sense of power over some others. But we're living in a world where Bill Gates is one of the richest people on the planet.

Life isn't about power though.
