If all things were the same, but it was men who fell pregnant and gave birth, abortion clinics would be so standard they’d be on every corner, like McDonald’s. In fact, it’d be a sign of status to go to one.
Male 1: “I’m just off to the abortion clinic real quick.”
Male 2: “Oh nice, King. You’ve been busy.”
Male 1 leaves.
Male 3: “He’s so cool.”
This here. If men would give birth, they would be women.
So much of what makes up the differences between the male and female experiences is down to the fact that women give birth.
If it was the men who gave birth and not the women, we’d have pretty much everything we have now, just gender-reversed.
This assumes it simply reverses the roles so men give birth and women don’t.
What if we all gave birth?
In that case, there likely wouldn’t be two separate genders at all, because why would there be? Hermaphrodite species exist, and they usually just have a single gender.
So, basically that one Red Dwarf episode. Cool.
