One thing I'll say is that we live in a culturally-male-dominated world that is harmful to both men and women, if not young men more than women in some places, but the issues men have are not because of or in any way brought on by feminism, which is completely inclusive to men's issues, even if many individual feminists are fucking cunts and don't take them seriously, but instead bred largely from socioeconomic factors and from toxic, traditionally masculine influences on our current society. Women are directly victimized by men way way way way WAY more than men are by women, but men are still subject to severely harmful psychological conditioning and social expectations as a result of the aforementioned toxic culture we live in, which leads to things such as significantly higher rates of suicide in men.
The problem is neither women nor men, and it isn't feminism either, it's the prevailing sociocultural mindset which places men in a position that demands on them to conform to a dominant, heteronormative, "(toxically) masculine" position, in contexts both conscious and subconscious on the part of it's many enablers (all of us, you and me included to at least some degree whether we like to admit it or not), that is quite clearly NOT healthy and sustainable, especially in our current times, when the norms of the past are being challenged and changed and young men are not given a better narrative.
There's nothing wrong with masculinity. Just as the problem with a rotten egg is the "rotten", not the egg, the problem with toxic masculinity is the "toxic", not the masculinity.
