People are resources and male dominated societies are, of course, seeing to it that they can handle the females in a way that serves their interests - sex, procreation & chores. How it looks on an individual base, behind the curtains at home, is often another matter entirely.
Females, when given power, also do things that benefit them. In today's "tech world" most males are more disposable than ever and will thus be driven to suicide via social & financial dead ends.
