[b]It's gone for [i]everyone[/i], but it's only boys (or overwhelmingly boys) who seem unable to function, who get addicted to porn and racist YouTubers and PUA scamming, who are just so sad they have to get violent. [/b]

This whole argument, including the bit about slower brain development, is basically an argument to put boys under conservatorship for their own and everyone else's protection. I don't think that's what the proponents want, but it's the logical conclusion of their argument that boys are just too slow and sad to function in the world ... 
even though all the richest and most powerful people in the world are men, and we are one generation out from women being a minority in college and not being allowed to open bank accounts. Meaning, the very economic conditions these guys struggle with were created and perpetuated by men.

+1 I think a lot of this is coming from young men who are raised by the internet and are fed nostalgia that isn’t possible anymore. Being dad who works with a wife that cooks  and cleans and dotes on babies all day. Most young men simply aren’t going to get that experience. [/quote]
