When it changed

First off, i would like to say that (coming from a female point of side) why do men feel more superior to us? We are different in some aspects like emotions and physical body parts but we are still apart of the same species. The stories brings up the male characters as aliens and the cause to inferior emotions. like being away from the opposite gender for a long while, and still surviving, can make you feel inferior if some random aliens comes saying that they are here to save you from yourself basically. they looked like they were slowly beginning to forget about ever having another gender. Like the feelings that a myth told to you when you were a child all of a sudden came true and that your life was going to change forever. I thought that the author was trying to show a story about what would happen if all the male gender on earth died out in a plague which was a mildly interesting situation.

it got me thinking when i read the line saying "where i come from, the women don't dress so plainly.", it made me thinking about society as it is now. the reasons why women like to dress so "non-plain". Do we do it just because there are another gender living with us and we are trying to attract them. And we WANT to attract them because they are so foreign to us?
