Men and women find themselves at a historic crossroads, with the potential for a new understanding post-Weinstein. However, dark forces are fostering suspicion and mistrust between the sexes. As polarization grows, both sides feel increasingly resentful, with soaring male suicide rates and women questioning the absence of "good guys." Some men are even withdrawing from relationships entirely. Gender roles are becoming blurred, and the very notion of masculinity is being challenged by an orthodoxy that views straight white males as oppressors and women as victims. This conflict unfolds across various arenas, including online platforms, media, political events, and university campuses, where ideological battles rage between fourth-wave feminists, second-wave feminists, and men's rights activists. Ordinary individuals grapple with identity politics, while young women are cautioned to view male attention with suspicion. Journalist James Innes-Smith explores this worrying gender war, highlighting that the crisis of masculinity has evolved into a potential catastrophe with significant implications for society as a whole.
