It's both. The reason the policy makers do this is because of the size of the female voting block, and because, unlike men, women vote their interests.

Who has men’s interest though? Personally, none of the parties I can vote for have any intention of improving men’s rights.

True, so you have to vote for the least toxic one. Don't let perfect be the enemy of the good.

Start at the state level, not the national one. Reach out to your city representatives first, then state capital.

Your scenario is no different than Kamala Harris using black people to thrust her campaign along, while also being on record as stating she will not address black community concerns in particular unless it 'helps everybody'. I also noticed that Facebook and Instagram is autoblocking websites that list black community political agendas and how current politicos could address them.

You vote for policymakers, not policies. Judges are widely appointed. And both parties have eroded rights of men (not to mention human rights) in various ways.

True, but one party has eroded them more than the other. You have to vote for the "least worst", if I may be allowed to mangle the English language a little.

And that "least worst" party is happy to see the other one wreak havoc on them, because it gives them more political collateral. Same as the Roe vs. Wade repeal. Which party do you think was actually happiest about it?

Once again, I have to agree with you.
