It's because the incomes of the eligible population (the almost
exclusively male population) has been declining since 1973. Money makes a big
difference and we have led a marginal existence for the last forty years.

"This means that the median man in 2010 earned as much as the
median man did in 1964 — nearly a half century ago. Men with less education face
an even bleaker picture; earnings for the median man with a high school diploma
and no further schooling fell by 41 percent from 1970 to 2010."

Since about 1980 the percentage of men and women in middle-skill
jobs has declined. But for women, nearly all of that decline was because of
increased representation in higher-skill jobs. Women’s employment in low-skill
jobs increased by just 1 percent. By contrast, for men, half the decline in
middle-skill jobs was a result of increases in low-skill jobs.

The most urgent issue facing working Americans today is not the glass ceiling.
It is the sinking floor.

Today, however, becoming a “never-never” employee is increasingly a
gender-neutral fate. Millions of men face working conditions that traditionally
characterized women’s lives: low wages, minimal benefits, part-time or temporary
jobs, and periods of joblessness. Poverty is becoming defeminized because the
working conditions of many men are becoming more feminized.

So, just how are you doing in this war against men?
