Do men have it harder than women in 2024?

Writer Costello Crozier asks how we can promote ’Christian masculine virtues’ in a world where the toxic masculinity of men like Andrew Tate is praised, and feminism is thought to have caused harm.

A new survey has found that 16% of gen Z males felt feminism had done more harm than good. The polling of over 3,600 people conducted by The Policy Institute at King’s College London and the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership also found that a fifth of UK males aged 16 to 29 now look favourably on the social media influencer Andrew Tate.

To anyone listening to the current political and cultural climate, these figures should come as no surprise. What did we expect to happen when we decided to destroy, demonise, and dismantle all forms of masculinity, even the good ones?
