We don't have a male loneliness epidemic, we have a male entitlement epidemic. This analysis is pretty spot on. Women don't NEED men in the same way as they used to, so we are asking men to step up, improve themselves, and bring something more to the table, other than "I am man, hear me roar", and men aren't liking this. They aren't willing to change the system that's done so much damage, the patriarchy, to both men and women. They're afraid to lose their privilege and power.

The more physically attractive an older man is, the younger the woman he wants.

…proving that “mental load” and “emotional labor” are not a thing.

Eu nunca vou entender o ódio que as mulheres tem de videogame.

8 weeks of maternity leave isn’t enough. Neither is 3 months, 6 months or 1 year. Attachment theory research shows that babies need their primary caregiver (most often mom) far longer than a few months, ideally for the first 3 years. Longer maternity leave leads to better mother-infant interactions which results in a more secure attachment at 24 months. Babies are so sensitive that even any mother-baby separation for more than a week (1 week!) under the age of 2 has been shown to predict higher child negativity at age 3 and higher aggression at both age 3 and age 5. You can never convince me that anything about women working corporate jobs is natural.

Love really comes in all shapes and sizes… sometimes with a 2-foot height gap.

Once you see women for who they are, the idea of being overly romantic or generous starts to feel pointless. Especially when it’s clear they admire men who don’t even remember their names, let alone treat them well. On a larger scale, men are beginning to realize this and are questioning even general kindness towards women because now we can see that it isn’t valued and is even perceived as a weakness. Why be with someone you constantly have to worry about treating too well? I worry about this a lot when it comes to dating, and I know others feel the same way.
