I think you have it exactly backwards. Much of the regularity imposed by the school system and 9-5 jobs is very female-oriented. Hormonally, women are cyclic and predictable, while men are highly reactive.

If you want someone to juggle a multitude of tasks day in and day out and see they are all given proper attention, you're basically describing child-rearing and the mode of operation at which women naturally excel.

If you want someone to tackle high-pressure situations or single-mindedly work at solving a problem, men are naturally best suited.

The problem with "the system" is that it tries to fit both men and women into this same common mold—that of the machine—rather than recognizing our innate differences and tendencies and how they can best work together to build up a society.
