Perhaps if women get equal pay for equal work and their spending power increases, that'll improve?Frankly, I don't know much on the topic of equal pay and what-not, but I doubt that'd help much anyway. The problem seems to be the collective mentality of society says that men are this way, women are that way- and not enough people make the effort to stop perpetuating the myths.

Wikipedia - Third-wave feminism
"Also considered part of the third wave is sex-positivity, a celebration of sexuality as a positive aspect of life, with broader definitions of what sex means and what oppression and empowerment may imply in the context of sex. For example, many third-wave feminists have reconsidered the opposition to pornography and sex work of the second wave, and challenge existing beliefs that participants in pornography and sex work are always being exploited."
