There is a recurring theme on this topic, and the article alluded to it via these men potentially stirring "political trouble", that the freedom of women needs to be clamped down on because these men won't otherwise find partners, and thus will cause social instability.
To me it strikes me as the entirely wrong approach. Women should in fact continue to push for their autonomy and freedom, and a functioning society should be keeping these men in check rather than yielding to them in any capacity.
Please enlighten me and point to where in this article it makes it a women problem… feels like they are highlighting a men’s issue…
The article feel like it is trying to lay out facts relating to tradition while withholding opinion.
Seems to me there is a recurring problem where people overlay women’s rights on to everything… the world is multi dimensional and doesn’t singularly revolve around gender… this kind of thinking shuts down debate and ostracises potential participants. The formerly oppressed are becoming the oppressor..

Which works great until there are so many of these "excess" men that you can't keep them "in check". They are allowed to vote too, after all.
