Long term personal research seems to show that most people don't expect the male/female divide to balance any time soon (let alone the abuse that goes long with it). People are seeing 100 and 200 years as the sort of figure for when a better way might be achieved. 50 years seems to be the earliest. At the moment the situation seems to be worsening, or at the very least showing up in the world in it's true colours.

On April 22,1970, 20 million Americans took to the streets, parks, and auditoriums to demonstrate for a healthy, sustainable environment in massive coast-to-coast rallies. Thousands of colleges and universities organized protests against the deterioration of the environment. Groups that had been fighting against oil spills, polluting factories and power plants, raw sewage, toxic dumps, pesticides, freeways, the loss of wilderness, and the extinction of wildlife suddenly realized they shared common values.
