Honestly, as things stand, the feminist conditioning is too deep. There is a widespread belief that women are having such such a difficult time, and that men are very privileged. Even though when measured by most metrics, almost every statistic contradicts said belief, absolutely every metric that is crucial to a fulfilled life.
Employment, university graduation, sex, romantic relationships, families(court), the subtle challenges from kindergarten to high school favoring girls, social perception, network systems, government benefits, suicides, and the list goes on... A more obvious example of that, is how in the 70s, boys were graduating at a rate higher than girls by 13%, and from that moment on countless initiatives begun to bridge that gap, raising awareness campaigns, female only scholarships, the works, things that still exist today, even though it's boys who are falling by a 15%. In spite of all of these, that sentiment still exists to a very profound and palpable degree in society.
What's worse, is that the rise of feminism coincided with the absolutely mind-blowing progress in technology, internet, entertainment, and so on... And so, these beliefs were constantly hammered on from all sides, shows, movies, games, reality tv, social media, books, jokes, everywhere... Then there is the whole complex issue of social activism as an ideology, religion, or even as the most important way of life was centered around all of these issues, making just talking about easily verifiable statistics be deemed as radical behavior by most social sentiments, and any revolt against the popular "moral" beliefs a reflection of anti-social behavior, psychopathy, and just evil.
Coupled with the numerous psychological and biological phenomena involved as well. How everyone is more likely to favor women in any given situation, how women have an in-group bias whereas men have an out-group bias, and so many more. How women's issues are seen as society's problem, and men's issues are seen as their own problems. And many more... Is it then any surprise that from a general social point of view no one takes men's issues with the same gravity and concern as women's?
What do you think has to change about society for there to be room for men's issues to be highlighted not in a mocking manner, but in a genuine way?
