I have seen people complaining that female actresses seem to age out of certain roles more often than their male counterparts. I have also seen people complaining about the bias against older women etc. Fair enough... But what about the fact that younger men are seen as invisible compared to their female counterparts.

Sex, relationships: A 20 year old woman can date men her age or older . Even if the woman is mediocre in looks she can easily get laid by men her age , older men or even younger men. 20 year old men have to jump through hoops in order to get laid and are mostly invisible.

Attention/compliments: Compare the Instagram profile of an average young woman and an average young man. The average woman gets way more likes, followers etc. The average guy's profile is mostly invisible to anyone but his friends. The woman posts a single picture and her profile is filled with dms. Most men cannot even imagine getting so much attention.

Jobs: A lot of jobs aimed at young people, like customer service/barista/waitress tend to prefer women over men. Also, a lot of young women can make money being sugar babies and it's not even considered real sex work nowadays so any stigma is gone. You can say these jobs are not great but they're still good to help a student make some money.

But... Women don't enjoy the attention! I don't believe that's entirely true at all. A lot of women do like getting attention otherwise they wouldn't be posting thirst traps on social media knowing that creeps are going to masturbate to them. A lot of women would get depressed if they didn't get any attention and were invisible to the other sex, like most young men are.

So...when are we pushing for young men (18-25) to be perceived as more attractive?
