Well seeing as a lot of the issues are with women I think it is largely up to them to sort their shit out. I don't think as a man I should be responsible for improving women. But if you wanted me to I would think there needs to be some education probably starting in school. Additionally I think equality laws need to be better inforced as is doesn't seem equal.
Addressing your points individually. So if women are the main advocate of saying women make better care givers how is that mens fault. How should men address this issue that is belief is most propagated by women?
Again women mostly propagate this. How should we educated women that they also have issues. How can we let men talk about this issues without women laughing at them or immediately siding with women and spreading that around?
It's not. What I am referring to is how 80% of applications can be male. But 50% of the workers need to be female. But this is only for high earning male dominated fields like engineering. Children who surely must have no responsibility in sexism are sexistly discrimated against when girls get STEM clubs or funding or help but boys to not.
Look I'm if you going to push women into ideal jobs I can get behind getting more women into trade and or picking up garbage. There is a big push to getting more women into trades I know, I've talked to recrutiers and women in engineering. It seems like companies are desperate to hire them because they are women not because they are good at the job. I have even been told the next person in a job will be a women. That's unfair to men. No one should get a job just because of their sex. I personally belive that the best person for the job should get the job. If 80% of people with a degree in x are sex A then they industry, statistically, should take 80% of sex A for that job. But it isn't like that. The only exceptions I believe is teachers should be 50:50 male:female. Turns out because men are underrepresented in this area it doesn't matter.
You're making a jump here. All is an exaggerating but it does happen "guys only care about sex" "guys are dicks" Etc etc. I've actually been told be a lot of girls, friends, housemates gfs they feel safe around me. Random women I just met also frequently ask me for help. But it doesn't mean they don't make out the whole sex is terrible and they we are all responsible.
Men can show emotion, to other men. Then it's fine. Do me a favour go on somewhere like reddit and read "what happened when you opened up to women?". Women push guys to be emotional then dump them or ridicule them for being emotional. How are men meant to fix that issue that is arriving from women? If we can only get relationships and be treated with respect by acting a certain way then that's all we can do.
Yet women don't want men that aren't breadwinners. Guys done care how much their friends earn, women do.
It's a difficult issue to fix for sure. I guess I'm in the raising awareness phase. Trying to get women to understand. But unfortunately they don't seem to want to listen. They just think everything wrong with the world is because of men and women do no wrong.
I think when I can I'm going to go home I might write to the govement about certain issues. I doubt it will do anything but I might try. I'm considering serting up something about men only spaces. I really feel big on that but it's illegal so I might have to get some outreach. I'm also going to go to a country where they aren't illegal so I'm going to get some first hand experience.
I'm mulling over a book idea in my head that will address some of these points. But I have a lot of my plate right now, I don't like writing, in dyslexic and there are millions of books out there. So I doubt this will come to anything.
What solutions do you propose? All you have done is stated issues are due to "the patriarchy" like its some sort of shadow government pulling strings behind the scenes.
