@stephenjenkins7971 I totally agree on the child support issue. I'm childfree, so I'm the last person who could force a man to be a father... X'D However, think about the current war against abortion options and the fact that it's against WOMEN's bodies, even before men's rights come into play.
That said, being a man, you've no idea how many unfair things women still have to endure, even in the "civilized West". I could easily argue against the "inordinate amount of influence in the court system in the US, but I won't, since I'm not a US citizen. Being a man surely has its own downsides (for example, the fact that more men than women work in physically demanding and hazardous sectors), but not even those are enough to counterbalance other things, like the inane amount of unpaid, uninsured and/or off-the-book labour women take upon themselves on average in countries like mine (Italy), nor the constant harassment they have to deal with at work and elsewhere. Technically, women and men are SUPPOSED to be paid the same, but there are thousands of ways to circumvent that, (not to mention the unavoidable role played by reproductive biology), and the aggregate data speak for themselves.

@stephenjenkins7971 When I talk about "unpaid work", I mean household chores and taking care of the children, yes (things mostly done by women, even if the disparity is slowing decreasing over time), but also the huge amount of female jobs that are paid off the books with no insurance, no severance pay, no holidays, no sick leave and no pension. Where I live, this kind of jobs are prevalently female. Less than half Italian women work, according to official data, and it's no mystery that many more do, but without enjoying the rights regular jobs guarantee. Some men have irregular and "black market" jobs too, but disproportionately less than women. There are many reasons for that, at least in my country.
