The issue is that many young men and boys have no idea what it means to be a man. Feminism redefined the nature of marriage, straight relationships, and womanhood but there was no corresponding concept of how to be a man in the modern world that grew alongside feminism. We had movements that ran counter to feminism but nothing within the "mens movement" that embraced feminism and looked towards the future.
Men need to define masculinity fir the modern age and it can't be based on traditional metrics such as wealth or military history.
