Anyone can file lawsuits, even bogus ones without merit.
Picking a few recent Title IX complaints, as described by someone who is not a legal scholar, is going to be full of noise that will amplify preconceptions.
Were there similar complaints 20 years ago? 40 years ago? How did they turn out? The first example seems unlikely to be the first such case.
Any discussion about sex discrimination lawsuits filed by men must be aware of Oncale v. Sundowner Offshore Services, Inc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oncale_v._Sundowner_Offshore_Services,_Inc https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oncale_v._Sundowner_Offshore_S....
The analogy "Honey or Vinegar?" fails, HARD, for that case. It was far better for Oncale to win that court case, because it won hearts and minds, and faster (IMO) than not filing.
