I personally put the issue with Western women down to Western culture being so anti-woman for so many thousands (?) of years. My experience is African, and in Africa women had a much bigger say in the running of a household, in political issues, and being pro-active about choosing a mate. This is vastly different to Western women, who were third class citizens who were literally dismissed from the workforce once they married. And this is in very recent times, my lifetime.
So Western women needed to move forward from where they were, there is no question about that. African women, on the other hand, didn't have so much of a need. They were confident about their place in society, and any seventies liberation was rather superficial to them. They are better placed to handle equalilty today, because they have always been closer to equal.
I do feel sorry for Western women, because liberation is a very recent event and they are struggling to find their way. They are lost just as young men are lost.
Of course I didn't know this when I met my wife. The woman I met was confident, easy to get on with, willing to take the initiative, and still very feminine.
Asian women, I suspect, are a bit like African women. I suspect that you don't want to cross the boundaries of an Asian women, because you will get it! I also suspect they don't have difficulties dealing with equality, maybe because on the home front they were closer to being equal compared to the doormat-housewife of our society. Alternatively, there is hopeless inequality in Asian countries to this day, but these women don't care about such inequality. Either way, they are confident in themselves and where they are, and that's what we, as men, feel comfortable about.
