In my long corporate career I saw the changes you've described taking place. Thousands and thousands of hours wasted on diversity training and harassment awareness and indigenous rights awareness and Pride month and...and....just bullshit. Almost all of it seemingly driven by women in the HR and WH&S departments.
I'm recently retired and incredibly grateful that I'll never be forced to live through another scolding corporate training session telling me I have to be nice, at risk of my job.
I thought this was a great piece of writing. However...there has and continues to be plenty of women who've struck out, lived on the edge, defied convention. Its not a trait particular to men. Plenty of adventurous risk taking women out there.
It seems to me that this goes well with the drive to make books that boys want to read which Raconteur Press are doing. One of their authors - Dave Freer - did a guest substack for me that bridges the gap between your post and the books - https://ombreolivier.substack.com/p/the-beatings-will-continue-until?r=7yrqz

Our suffocating culture has created a grand opportunity to find these diamonds in the rough. Fantastic article.
