Why Men & Women Are Giving Up On Each Other - Daniel Cox - #1166

Daniel Cox's research finds gender polarization stems from algorithmic feeds, institutional distrust, and politics—not dating apps or Me Too alone.

• Growing apart, not closer: Only 42% of young men believe women understand their problems, and just 25% of young women say the same about men — a gap Cox says used to close with age but now doesn't.
• Algorithmic sorting by gender: Cox cites a Washington Post finding that gender was among the most effective signals platforms use to segregate feeds, feeding men and women opposite, reinforcing content.
