One reason men are checking out is simple: modern ideology has blurred the most basic truth of human civilization — men and women are different. When radical gender theory insists there are dozens of genders, it dissolves the natural lines of identity, responsibility, and purpose that societies relied on for thousands of years. A man becomes a husband, father, protector, and builder precisely because he is not a woman. A woman becomes a mother, nurturer, and partner precisely because she is not a man. That reality predates politics and will outlast it. When Marxist critical theory attacks those foundations, it doesn’t liberate people — it leaves an entire generation drifting without direction.
