Men 25-34 see biggest increase in unemployment in decades

To be honest I've seen the same happen in Europe and the reason is simpler than it looks. It's mostly the idea (that feminists love so much) that men are dangerous.

Young men (being the ones who most often lack an academic qualification, experience or both) are most of the time forced to work horrible jobs that are either depressing or dangerous if they want to get a decent salary (and let's not even mention suicide with construction workers alone making up 17% of all suicides in UK).

The reason for that is basically the alternatives being jobs that involve dealing with people. Working in a bar, hotel, and so on. The idea that men are dangerous/rapists/predators makes it more profitable for a boss to hire a woman for a job that involves the person interacting with the customer personally as the customer feels more comfortable. This is why jobs like working at a bar, hotel or clothing store, places where for one reason or another women are in states stereotypically defined as vulnerable (either being drunk, changing clothes, sleeping, etc.) often do not accept men at all. I once met a couple who was talking about their hard work before they got where they did in life. For her, the hard work was working as a clothes store assistent. For him, it was scraping oil out of massive metal pipes. They earned the same.

There is a reason why feminists are so adamant in maintaining the idea that men are dangerous, even to go as far as sending death threats (or shooting their dog) to anyone whose research shows that women are as violent as men. This stereotype grants women a much wider market of easy jobs that can warrant them a decent wage. Men do not have that luxury. And if on one hand this forces men into horrible jobs out of desperation, on the other hand it seriously limits the jobs young men can take. It's no surprise many end up in unemployment.

I wonder if these phenomenas are interrelated

It looks to me like a lost generation. Lost to gaming I guess.

It was very convenient for society to get on and leave these boys, as were, behind.

Imagine if 15 years ago, girls suddenly decided to stay indoors all the time and devote themselves to such pursuits. There would have been an outcry. But the boys were abandoned to it, the girls were encouraged to make something of themselves.

Not seen, not heard; forgotten.
