There are an infinite number of "what-ifs" and
"who-knows-if" that we can ask of any imaginable situation. To just
think about all possibilities will already take us our entire lifetimes, not to
mention the resolutions to the problems that lie in such possibilities. I
cannot answer your question exhaustively on what will happen if such technology
becomes de facto. I might be able to cite certain possible situations but that
is all that I am capable of.
The key to maintaining harmony in the world exists in us practising moderation in all spheres of activities and thoughts. The more we have of people who subscribe to moderated thought and actions, the closer we move towards a peaceful world. Nonetheless, even the hypothetical end result of a peaceful existence can be questioned. Is peace truly the right goal that we should work towards? It might be the goal that we should work towards right now just to restore balance to a violence-stricken world but what next after achieving peace?
Where technology is concerned, we can likewise fret for the rest of our lives and worry that it might be abused. We know for sure that technology will continue to progress in spite of our fretting and lamenting. Trying to stop the progress of technology will be more difficult than trying to stop the movement of a huge ice glacier on the downslope. It will likely be a futile and pointless exercise.
Women are equal to men. And they are not. They are stronger than men in certain areas and weaker in others. In areas which they are weaker, they deserve protection and help just as men require the same in those which they are not as strong. Let's think of how they are the same instead of how they are different. This applies to many aspects of life, especially lines of segregation across human kind - race, religion and creed to name a few. Our natural tendencies to view others from the perspective of how different they are from us make an already difficult existence even more so.
