Karyn wanted to use her wish for the good of the world, and as far as she could tell the world's main problem was men. Men started the wars and other violence, men ran the corporations and governments that were destroying the environment, and male values were preventing any of these problems from being solved. At the same time, she was straight, she didn't hate men, and she knew there were many good ones like Jon doing what they could to make up for the rest.
"I wish that men, without changing their sexual orientation or gender identity, would become gentle, empathetic, nurturing and feminine. I wish that the more violent and macho a man is now, the more feminine and supportive he becomes. I wish that men view their transformation as a good thing, and find happiness with their new personalities. I also wish that straight women find feminine males sexy and attractive."
