Even when societal issues affect men, they are normally are caused or originate from men

• For instance, the amount of men affected by mental health issues and high suicide rates is troubling and should be addressed. However it can also be argued that these numbers are the way they are because other men have reinforced these masculine values that men have to be tough and strong, and hide whatever issues they have. Despite this, society is generally moving away from this stereotype and being more accommodating of men’s mental health.
• Furthermore, women upholding misogynistic values and policing other women's behaviour is a symptom of patriarchy, a behaviour started by men and internalised by women. [Internalised misogyny] (https://feminisminindia.com/2020/08/31/6-things-internalised-misogyny-ruined-for-women/) can be dismantled as long as we change our mindsets and support other women.

Gender inequality is still a massive problem in society. While a lot of these issues do stem from men, claiming that “men” are the problem may neglect the bigger roots of social issues.

By characterising the problems in society as being caused by “men”, it not only overlooks social issues that men face themselves but also claims that all men are the problem when only some men are perpetuating patriarchal values.

However, gender inequality still dominates society and women are still restricted of opportunities as well as being at harm from sexual harassment which still pervades society. To tackle these issues, the way men are socialised needs to change and stereotypes of what being a man is, like toxic masculinity, need to be confronted.

In this sense, while a lot of the problems in society originate from men and are directed at women, there are deeper roots to why this is and it is not necessarily as simple as being a man means you are inherently contributing to these problems.

Sin is the crux of all Mankind's problems. This is true of both genders.

Mankind or not all men?

• Some people hold the view that men are to blame for many of life’s social problems, such as violence, rape culture, and war.

• Because most societies have historically been and continue to be patriarchal, some argue that societal inequality is rooted in male dominance. Many argue that misogyny is systemic and that therefore all men, whether or not they are personally misogynistic, benefit and therefore on some level uphold the patriarchy.

• Others claim that this is a broad and unfair statement, arguing that men are not responsible for all of life’s problems. The movement #NotAllMen argues against the assumption that men are sexually violent. Many believe that the condemnation of ‘all’ men damages efforts to create an equal and peaceful society.

It’s not inherently men, it’s how we raise our men. It’s the leniency we give to bad behaviour under the name of “boys will be boys.” No-one is born bad or problematic; it’s allowances and ignorance, compounded by inequality.

Before you assume the problem is men:
First, check that the battery has charge and that the terminals are connected.
Inspect the engine bay for loose fitting hoses, cable connections, or maligned components.
Verify the tank contains adequate fuel.
Ensure that the vehicle is in neutral, and with the clutch depressed, turn the ignition.
If the vehicle still doesn’t start, the problem might be men.
