Female rule will not be anything like the patriarchal system. It will not be a reverse of the old guard with men and women changing positions. Women in charge will usher in something new and it will be a win/win scenario for both genders for the female nature does not exist to destroy but rather to heal and to nurture. Nature knows what it is doing and we may not be able to fully predict or comprehend what is transpiring, but we can be true to our natures and our desires and embrace those inner pullings.
Women in the west are setting the example for the women in the east and they will be there to encourage women who live under oppression to rise up and to embrace their potential. A society must change one person at a time and one relationship at a time. A woman might not be able to change her government at this time but she can bring change to her marriage once she becomes aware of the power she possesses as a woman. And some day enough men who are ruled by their wives (even in a subtle way) will open that door for equality. It happened in the west and it will one day happen in the east. The ripples of change are beginning to occur in the east and there is evidence that the old ways are at the early stages of passing away. We may or may not see it come to fruition in our lifetime but we can take comfort and we can be excited about this societal evolution.
