Should we genetically modify unborn children to only be female?

I was recently reading a scientific research article which said genetic modification of animals was now possible to ensure only females were born which is obviously very useful in the farming industry.

This got me thinking. Would it now be advantageous to have 3-4 generations of humans which are 100% or close to 100% female.

Think about it. At the present time, the advantages males have over females are big at every level of society something which is well documented.

If we had a few generations of 100% female population we could eradicate this and have a truly equal society.

No. The supply of sperm is limited, with the collapse of electricity, the banks will no longer even be useful
There are biological benefits for the existence of two genders. Important traits essential for survival and for creating balanced upbringing for the off-spring will disappear from the gene pool.
The equality argument- It is not equality when males become a disadvantaged minority or are driven to extinction.
