It was always going to be this way even if they constantly hyped boys/men up and coddled to them.
Women entering the workforce as they did shook everything up. That’s the primary factor. You’re talking half the population becoming more professional, of course jobs are going to go away.
1960’s had 35% of women in the workforce.
2020’s have 60% of women in the workforce (and many more competing to enter).
That’s 25% more people working on a much larger population.
That’s tens of millions of jobs, including good paying jobs in STEM and the like, men would’ve had but don’t.
If someone couldn’t come to grips with that then that’s an expectations thing.
It’s funny because I just saw this episode last night when I put Married… with Children on.

Nah nah nah
You can't put this on progressives, they're powerless
Liberals did this too and Obama bended the knee with his boys initiative
He aint talk all that shyt then
And he always talking shyt about Black men, but never the women

Going all in on gays and women was stupid because a large percentage of women will always vote in line with their husband.
When you lose the husband you lose those women by default.

It is not women getting into the workforce that was the problem, it was the "lifting up women at the expense of men" rhetoric that was going on for years. We have seen where the messaging through media and Democratic politics where an emphasis was placed on women's success and the failure of men, especially with Black men and women.
That is not a winning strategy when you need men to vote for you, so while i would never not vote or vote republican, there are men that are turned off by the focus put on women and will not vote Democrat. This is not a recent problem but it has become more evident each election cycle and now you have men that would of voted Democrat years ago not doing so.

What we are seeing now is a white supremacist backlash to the changing demographics of this country it was always going to happen. As a FBA/ADOS these deportations are a positive however the white supremacist are rolling back some of our civil rights as well. I believe that most of the civil rights can be reinstated however.

If there were more American men who could find work it’d not have been an issue.
People voted because of immigration mainly. Why? Because immigration took many jobs, just like women entering the workforce. Many more women overall took jobs than immigrants overall.
Men having less jobs or less jobs that paid well was what drive much of the vote.
