Hi there! I'm a 38 years-old man. Been reading this subreddit for a while. Not an English native speaker, and live on the other side of the world, so admit my grammar errors. I will be short.
As one said earlier, a lot of anger comes out when reading here all is happening to men in the Western world, since decades already. We are losing ground every single day, little by little.
What I know: men's skills and aptitudes and advantages are put in value in times of distress, when there's need for action, fight, (re)construction, force, active intelligence. That's why men built the world we are living in, since hundreds of thousands of years, with all its goods and bads. We shaped the entire environment, discovered things, territories, fought in wars etc.
Now we are living in peace (again, I speak for the Western world). We are less useful now, most of the things have been constructed, the areas have been shaped for human living, no new territories to discover. Generally speaking of course. So now women come and think (maybe non consciously, but deep inside, on their subconscious level) that they don't need us anymore. No need for protection, to hunt and get the food, to fight in wars. The truth is in peaceful times women can do better all this, in a stable society. We are only useful (still) as procreators. That's why they despise us now and try to diminish our importance.
I don't say we need a global conflict to re-put men in their rights. But just imagine tomorrow a catastrophic event occurs or something really big hits us. I'm 100% sure all these feminist agressiveness against us and all the subconsideration of men will melt in a second, because they will need us again. Our brains, our superior adaptative skills, our intelligence, our force. And as always, it will be men who will save the world.
Meanwhile, we wait. No heads down, no defensive talks, no guilt feelings. Just quietly wait, because the force (whether they like it or not) is a man characteristic.
