"Men are invisible when young. Women are invisible when old."
From my experience both in my own life and countless deep talks with others of both genders, as well as observing the statistics on happiness & antidepressant use by age/gender, I believe this is an accurate statement.
Men are prized for their wisdom, physical/mental strength, financial stability, and accomplishments. When young, they have none of these things, because all require hard work and TIME.
This is why so many young men are lost.
BUT...this lostness is often a required step toward building themselves into a higher-value man. As long as they don't get stuck in the porn/video games/junk-food hole and properly build themselves in the above areas (physical, mental, financial), as time passes, their value increases, along with their happiness and fulfillment.
Women are very different. They are prized for their youth, beauty, and nurturing/healing energy.
The world doesn't care about their LinkedIn promotion or salary as it does for men, because these aren't furthering their prized traits.
The world LOVES it when women share stories of healing themselves, healing others, having and raising beautiful children etc., because this is where the power of feminine energy shines the brightest.
A tragic reality is that many women don't learn this until well into adulthood, after their prime years of youth & beauty have passed, and all the high-value men have forgotten about them in favor of those with less emotional baggage and a longer fertility window ahead of them (remember: 90% of a woman's eggs are gone by age 30. Logically-wired men understand this)
This is why so many older women are lost.
They were fooled by the deeply-engrained scam of feminism (i.e. the idea that women should pursue masculine characteristics rather than feminine ones), and are suddenly finding themselves deep in a high-powered career full of accomplishments and wisdom, yet they are more lost, confused, and depressed than ever.
This is why. They were tricked by the powers that be into chasing the wrong goals rather than those that would bring them true fulfillment, for the purpose of the state manufacturing them into worker cogs/tax slaves.
It's difficult to argue that the women of my generation (millennials) were the most brutally smacked in the face by this, and the data supports this. No demographic on earth is more depressed right now than 30-50 year old women.
I am however, VERY optimistic for future generations. I see a massive trend of these 30s-40s women sharing their personal stories of having been deeply fooled by the lies of feminism, and younger Gen-Z women RESONATING with this message, and deciding to buck the status quo and commit themselves to pursuing a path that aligns with their inner femininity.
(AND as a bonus, as the older generations are passing down this wisdom, they are finding a huge boost of new life, passion and happiness themselves, as they are finally embodying their natural role of HEALING and NURTURING the young! In a way this has become the ultimate backup plan for those who missed their biological window of being able to build a large family themselves - their "second chance" at finding that elusive, soul-warming fulfillment that they never got from raising children of their own)
TL;DR:
MEN: Keep building yourself physically, mentally, and financially, and you will win. If you're young, and confused about what you're supposed to do or where you're supposed to go...EMBRACE that uncertainty as a critical part of your hero's journey—because it is! You have the luxury of not having to fight such an unforgiving biological clock. Don't waste it!
WOMEN: If you're older, the world—especially young girls trying to find their path—NEED YOUR STORY RIGHT NOW. Keep spreading your message! If you're younger, turn off the TV and state-sponsored propaganda streams, and LISTEN to these millennial/GenX women who've been in your shoes, and are channeling all of their energy into trying to help you live the most beautiful life possible ❤️
