This is a good thread. I think about this a lot. Here's my two cents.
Life is EASY for a women. Women generally live in paradise while men live in hell. Masculinity itself is a form of curse. Men need to prove their 'masculinity' while females just exist. They don't need to seek status because their existence is an established status. Some of them born beautiful and will have more options in life, some of them are born average and ugly and have less options in life but they don't need to fight for them or create value. Their biological existence is value itself.
Men are supposed to be tough, strong, intimidating. Females, even with feminist propaganda 'muh strong and independent wahman

' aren't supposed to act tough. They have a great freedom in life. Stacy can be arrogant, bitchy and still be popular and attract fuckboys and betabuxxers. Or she can help homeless people and try to befriend social outcasts and losers. Her SMV remains the same or even increases ( 'she is compassionate beautiful princess' ). While if Chad tries to help homeless people or treat losers as equals, his SMV drops significantly ('why he is talking with that creep,clearly there is something wrong with him, maybe he is closeted gay or something?').
While extremies happen, like some woman will be treated badly by other women in collective, females are usually treated decently by other females even if she is ugly, fat, unpopular, mentally ill. While man who cannot stand for himself because he's weak, unpopular, mentally ill will be treated like trash and doormat by majority of both men and women in every collective. Females don't need to fear to become a doormat. Men, on the other hand, forced to be combative, competitive and aggressive otherwise they will find themselves at the bottom of social hierarchy.
Women exist outside hierarchial structures. E.g. I was obliged to visit police and criminal investigator happened to be a female. I came too late. Male investigator probably would try to discipline me, scream at me for being late but female just said "don't mind it" when I said 'I'm late'.
Women may be combative but they don't need to and they may be soft if they want. While manly proffesions recquire for a man to be strict and tough otherwise he wouldn't get his job in the first place if he is too soft.
Now, the most important part. Myth that females also compete for men exists only to prevent many men from rope. Men don't realize how extremely hard their life is. Just one example. Man hit on a group of two females ( Stacy and Becky ) and approaches Stacy. Becky may feel envy, anger, hatred towards Stacy, she may cry at home but she still remains the same Becky. She didn't lose her 'womanliness'. She may find someone later. Now imagine superior male bullying and humilating subhuman in front of a female/females. If a subhuman didn't react or fight back, he loses not only his chances to approach these females, he loses his "manly" status. He is no longer a man in everyone's eyes. Now everyone who was present will despise him and see him as a coward. He is stigmatized inside and hate and despise his own life and himself.
It may take many years or even decades for him to try again. But some part of him just died that moment. He will regret acting like beta his whole life. Women don't even fucking experience this.
