Don't reinstitute gender roles, but recognize that while women have made lots of progress men are still strictly held to their historical gender role, and that the only way forward is to open up the roles available for men.
- tshaddox 4y agoWhat about historical gender roles for men would cause a lot of men to be lonely now?
- scarmig 4y agoEmotional stoicism. Homophobia leading to homosocial connections being stigmatized. Men being objectified for their economic utility leading to them investing less in personal relationships and development. The stereotype of men being dangerous, leading to aversion to people initiating connections with them and less receptiveness when they do attempt to initiate. And, above all, the idea that men are hyperagents and thus always responsible for their own issues, and that society shouldn't do anything to help them.
