Comment on Men Use Fake Livestream Apps With AI Audiences to Hit on Women

My point was that cishet men may have it hard to find someone because they are not catching up with progressive and emancipatory values.

It’s worse than that - things seem to be regressing, with a widening political divide between men and women, especially noticeable in the younger adults.

It definitely feels like the modest progress that was made is now being eroded away

Yeah, it’s pretty disheartening and even frightening. I don’t know how to educate men on feminist ideas and get them on board. And being antifeminist doesn’t even benefit them that much. There are so many men living their life miserable and ending up in jail because of their toxic masculinity and societal expectations of men. And I’m certainly interested in helping cis men get better, reconnect with their emotions and learn about emancipation. But at the same time I don’t see how much people who are not cis men can do so much to really help them. We are pretty busy surviving them and supporting each other.

  The only people benefitting are those peddling the lies to disgruntled young men, partly as a grift and partly as misdirection from the real sources of their issues.

  And it shouldn’t be your job to fix young men but I am as stumped as you and I worry about people like my nephew who is early teens.
  
  There’s !mensliberation@lemmy.ca / !menslib@lemmygrad.ml but I don’t know if that’s not just preaching to the converted.

    Yes, it is really a frustrating situation. Since you seem to be a man, maybe you can be a good example to your nephew? But well, not so easy either unfortunately :(
