The fact that both roles have advantages and disadvantage doesn’t necessarily prove that neither is better on net. Then again, “better” by what preferences? Lucky are the people whose preferences match the role they were assigned.
To me it seems that women have a greater freedom of self-expression, as long as they are not competitive. Men are treated instrumentally: they are socially allowed to work and to compete against each other, anything else is a waste of energy. For example, it is okay for a man to talk a lot, if he is a politician, manager, salesman, professor, priest… simply, if it is a part of his job. And when he is seducing a woman. Otherwise, he should be silent. Women are expected to chit-chat all the time, but they should never contradict men, or say anything controversial.
one may be net better than the other, I just think the expected error washes out all of one’s reasoning so individuals shouldn’t be confident they’re right.
