There isn't a push to pit the sexes against each other. What you call a push is just nature taking its due course.
The sexes have almost no interests in common. What, besides money, can bind a woman to a man? Women make ideal living companions for each other. Their feelings and instincts are retarded at the same primitive level and there are almost no individualistic or eccentric women. It isn't difficult to imagine the paradise they would create together and how exciting their existence would be, even if the intellectual level was appallingly low.
If women were free of financial cares, the majority of them would probably prefer to spend their lives in the company of other women rather than with men - and not because they are all lesbians. What men call lesbian tendencies probably have little to do with a woman's sexual drive.
If Obama got stranded on an island, he would surely prefer the company of Putin or Ghadafi rather than a regular man who merely voted for him. After all, they have very little in common.
Woman, by nature, seeks to infiltrate any male dominated space. When that space espouses traits that make her feel "uneasy" such as typical masculine behavior, she seeks out to purge the environment of said traits.
That is where those "sexual harrasment" laws come into place. Why do you think most Human Resource departments are run by an army of cackling women? So they can control and manipulate the men of course.
Like I always say, men manipulate the environment but women manipulate men. Women don't need to be good at engineering things or financing things or fixing things. They just need to be good at manipulating men.
The men run around the work place thumping their chests like primal apes, believing themselves to be in charge. When, in reality, they are subject to the whims of their female overlords who can make or break their careers with one claim or various HR policies.
Therefore, there is no "push". What you are witnessing is just female nature hard at work.
