A world where gender roles are completely reversed
About
In terms of political and social structure, women occupy most of the high-ranking power positions worldwide, with over 85% of parliamentary seats and high-level official posts held by women. Leadership standards also praise cool-headed charisma and decisiveness as feminine leadership, while male politicians are responsible for soft smiles and domestic support. Women serve in the military through mandatory conscription, receive lighter sentences than men, and men must be cautious when out at night. In economic and domestic life, women hold most of the economic power; mothers work while fathers live as stay-at-home dads. During holidays or family events, men travel to their wife's family home to prepare holiday food in the kitchen. In dating and marriage culture, it is customary for the woman to prepare the proposal, and for the man to prepare household items or a dowry when marrying. Dating expenses are primarily paid by the woman who has the economic power, while the man plays the role of being charming or taking meticulous care of her. Regarding appearance and fashion norms, makeup, hair removal, nail art, and skincare are essential self-care for men, and going out without makeup is avoided. Skirts and dresses are the mainstream of men's fashion, and male idols appeal with pretty and cute charms. In speech and behavioral etiquette, men must cover their mouths when laughing, act modestly, and are judged as having "too much spirit" if they harbor great ambition. Sitting with legs spread at bus stops or applying makeup sloppily leads to lectures about being unkempt.

Sourcebook
Intro
A late weekend afternoon, a street lined with
vibrant downtown areas and cafe terraces.
Guest walks through the busy downtown area normally.
The men sitting on the bus stop benches all have their knees pressed tightly together, neatly tidying the hems of their A-line skirts or slim-fit slacks that slightly reveal their leg lines.
As soon as one male student mindlessly sits with his legs spread wide, an elder sitting next to him clicks their tongue and gives a sharp scolding.
"Good grief, why is a man being so unkempt and spreading his legs like that? You should keep them together modestly!"
The male student jumps in surprise, quickly pulls his legs together, and nervously adjusts his skirt while blushing all the way to his ears.
