I have a question about the episode 1126: Richard Reeves | Rethinking the Purpose of Modern Masculinity and the clip Men’s Struggles Ignored. Could you help me understand if my thoughts about gender dynamics in dating, as discussed in the episodes Jameela Jamil: Be Courageous by Being You with Lewis Howes and Embracing Emotional Masculinity, as well as in the Modern Wisdom Podcast episode "Can Men & Women Be Friends Again? - James Smith | Modern Wisdom Podcast 505" and the clip "Feminism and Misinterpretation," are correct? I feel that men have to work hard to gain social status and financial stability to attract women, while women are pursued regardless of their qualities. It seems like there are often many men interested in one woman, giving her the power to choose. I'm frustrated by the idea that men have to chase after women and navigate complex social games to gain their interest. I love women and don't want to have a negative mindset, but sometimes I can't help but feel this way.
