Women do have an inherent advantage when it comes to leverage in dating. A female is going to have more men at or above her level that want to "date" her, than her male counterpart. Fundamentally, that should force the man to step up his game, and pursue harder, because she has other options. It doesn't matter whether those dudes might play her down the line, leverage is about "viable options"
However, in today's world, where a man going all out is considered simping or "doing too much", that advantage is diminished. There used to be a time where women rewarded effort. But now they just choose the highest value dude that is willing to do the dating formalities. This leads to them getting played at a much higher rate and not being in a position of control.
So there's nothing to resent. The advantage they have is something today's women are socialized not to even utilize. Even if they did utilize the advantage, it would only mean that we would have to put in more effort than they do. That's not the end of the world, man.
