I can assure you that I have taken on the Responsibilities and Privileges of an Adult BETTER than most men -- because as a Single Parent (Long Term, with a Deadbeat Dad), Having Served a career in the Military (and Retired), and earned Degrees in Technical Fields (including Graduate Degrees) -- I challenge most men to even have started (much less accomplished) what I have done in the half-century of life I've Lived.

Absolutely without question. Given the shape of a mans world today, a change is well over due. It's time to put women in charge and give society the benefit of our superior intellect. It is a fact that women are more caring and nurturing but at the same time we are not afraid to accept responsibility or admit our mistakes. As for the privileges, a woman has to work twice as hard as a man just to earn the same ones. Oh, and by the way, a woman is not afraid to admit she uses spell check.

As a woman who works quite high-up in the company I work for:
I've worked hard and been successful in my own right. I have never seen my gender as a factor separating me from my male colleagues. Intellectually, we interact efficiently and our work produces results.
I handle my responsibilities at work just as well as I handle all of my responsibilities. I have not yet seen a woman promoted in my company for anything other than her ability to handle responsibility.
The reward is personal satisfaction that a job has been done well! Us women don't generally look for that 'golfing weekend with the lads', or that 'business lunch down at the strip club'. In fact we don't usually get invited along - but those could be considered privileges by men. How awkward must it be for men in equal positions to women trying to think of activities that they could invite a woman along to enjoy?
So what privileges do you think we could possibly want outside of earning good money and achieving our personal goals?

Sounds good actual. yet you assert do away with affirmative action, then you say women ought to manage as plenty blue collar jobs as adult men. Is that no longer affirmative action? So each thing different than the final one, because of the fact it is going against doing away with affirmative action.

What "equality" do you want to reduce women to ?
Whatever task, work or professional place they are in they are there in their own right.
I have been very pleased with what I have experienced.

can MEN handle equality? i don't think that lessening undue privilege, nor lifting the glass ceiling is something that will be greeted with open arms.

they can not handle equality because they would always prefer and dream of the driving seat.

Women are superior in so many ways. I doubt they'd like to be "reduced" to be equal to men. On the other hand, they'd welcome it if men were enhanced to their level.
