I agree with you there partially. I think #resistance is not futile in this case however. Declining female satisfication with life and increasing anxiety and depression are symptoms. Change will come. A re-embrace of the feminine will appear. 
Yes, sort of. I think options have opened up for women in a way they haven't for men. We have all been taught to expect more than is probably reasonable but that women have been more so. I don't think life is about duty & burden tho! Not in the west, anyway.
