We have to see this not only cross sectionally but also longitudinally as they have developed and evolved over milleniums. Men being endowed with brute strength developed along certain lines whereby expression of emotions was seen as a sign of weakness. Women, on the other hand developed soft powers and did learn how to manipulate as this ensured that they too had their way. Now the clock has changed and there is this new found freedom, especially as defined by the western narratives. The result is what you describe. But this is because things are still in a flux as the balance is being reset. Besides Nature is striving for something new, a species that may well be beyond the masculine and the feminine, a healthy integration of the two. The solution lies there, in completing the further evolution of both men and women towards a new spiritual type.
Basically crookedness etc are the result of living in the analytical mind and a clear, clean consciousness is the gift of the heart. Here too we see now a shift as more and more women are living in the analytical mind and hence prone to the ills that men were largely prone to. A free mixing with men has led to their imbibing some of the evils to which extremely competitive men are prone to. On the other hand men are benefiting with this free interchange as they are developing the long suppressed emotional and intuitive side. Soon this process will reach its peak, perhaps already has, leading to the emergence of a new type that would escape a strict compartment of man and woman which will be Nature’s offered solution. Relationship will also change from typical husband wife to a mutual friend. The only problem that will remain is reproduction and children but Nature will surely find a way for that as well by evolving two types of humanity, one with the traditional man-woman relation while the other evolving towards a gender neutral new spiritual type.
