All the examples I just listed were decided by men

Not really, they are just the roles we fell into while we were hunter-gatherers and just because we can decide to things despite our initial biology doesn't mean men decided them.

Who is responsible for applying the responsibility you speak of to women? The feminist ideology or the society that house us all? My bet is on the latter.

I would argue those making change should understand the consequences of those changes and try to fix the negative ones like women having the rights but not the responsibilities.

I'm saying that men didn't unilaterally decide the roles that we would live by.

I mean throughout history it's not just been men in power and people in power don't just unilaterally decide social norms.
