Britische Publizistin: "Vielleicht sind inzwischen Männer das benachteiligte Geschlecht"

Hat ein paar Jahre gedauert, aber so ganz allmählich kommen sie dahinter:

But this new statistic, that women outnumber men at university – nearly 50 per cent participate in higher education as opposed to 37.8 per cent of men – really should give us pause. It should, in fact, make us think twice about our reflexive answer to the question, which is the underdog sex? We're conditioned to say it's women.

The assumption – I nearly said myth – of women's second-sex status is behind any number of state and political initiatives, from the all-women shortlists for selection as parliamentary candidates and positive discrimination in the police to the way examinations are run. In fact, the last time we collectively got agitated about gender performance at university was because women got fewer Oxbridge firsts than men. (It's nearly equal now.) Already women outnumber men as young lawyers and medics.

Forget the fuss about women in the Cabinet. What we're actually looking at instead is increasing male disadvantage, for umpteen reasons, including social engineering. (…)

Of course, there are still marked differences in outcomes between the genders – women earn less than men and are far less likely to be non-executive directors or Tory MPs – but it is arguable that the pay gap is produced because women make choices that enable them to spend time with their children. Unmarried, childless women don't earn less than men. More women graduates will mean women with more economic clout, more power within relationships.

By rights this should put feminism out of business. But it won't. It would take too much of a shift in our prejudices to see boys as the problem, disadvantaged sex. Perhaps that's because it doesn't suit either men or women to do so.
