Everything you know about gender politics in the West is actually paradoxical and the exact opposite of what is repeated in the mainstream. Since women care more about women than men care about men (and women certainly don't care about men), everything is framed as a uniquely female issue that people need to address and fix.

e.g. The gender gap isn't because of discrimination in the workplace, it tracks closely with hours worked and occupation chosen, it's because women actually have the freedom to choose. They can be a provider or pick a low key career and marry a provider, that is socially acceptable. It is not socially acceptable for a man to be low earning, it can sometimes be a death sentence for his relationship prospects, and so he must be driven. Men are getting fucked here, but women have the loudest voice.

Similarly, there's the notion that society somehow devalues women or treats them badly. It doesn't track with the fact that men are 3x more likely to commit suicide, 4x more likely to die a violent death, are the virtual entirety of hazardous job and military deaths, and continue to be subjected to fairly barbaric (legal) procedures like circumcision, while a single instant of female circumcision draws headlines and uproar.

Society may be ran by men, but it is built to serve women. This is a product of an outsized female presence in the democratic process, and their own willingness to perpetually push "female first" agendas where men are not willing to do the same.
