Get this:
In prosperous liberal democracies, #women either are better educated and wealthier than #men — or will be very soon.
Women can freeze their eggs, get inseminated for free or paying very little (or pay a bit more to pick and choose the “best” semen online), become the sole parents of fatherless children… and society does not only not bat an eyelid at this, but their stories are usually met with admiration in the media and get support (eg, in the form of subsidies for single mothers).
Meanwhile, #surrogacy is highly controversial, and actually illegal in roughly half of the Western world.
So, women can be picky, ambitious and independent and still have kids. But men can’t.
It’s a near future (almost a present already) of children without male role models, and of men falling behind in three areas: fewer kids, less education, and less money than women.
Guess who is the main victim here? Who’s to blame? Who society should help?
“It [is] men, not women, who [are] the problem”
“The decline of men […] is also having a deleterious effect on women’s lives”
“We need to start talking about the men-as-partners problem”
“Women around the world are really doing amazing things in higher education, […] but unfortunately the downside of that is some men are not doing so well now and women are suffering for that”
