What should men know how to do? How about being in touch with their emotions? Often times women get shoved into needing to fill two roles but men can just go on being men. I know this is a little bit off topic, sorry.

Having skills shouldn't really enter into masculinity or feminity. Men are men and women are women and I for one like it that way. That said, men should know how to cook, sew etc. and women should know carpentry, electrics etc.

Feminizing men or masculinizing women seems to me to be a completely different discussion from competence and skill sets.
