Is she implying this is a bad thing?
If men weren't the ones doing the heavy lifting of public leadership and private business, day in and day out, when nobody is looking at them, "affirming" them, or "empowering" them, men would not be the movers and shakers in politics and business. It would be women. Or tree frogs. Or whoever was showing up and doing the work. Women would be the ones the whiners of the Western world were suing and protesting against, demanding the privilege of hanging out with them.
Notice, it's only the successful men whom women like this faux-conservative writer want to associate with. You don't see gals protesting their exclusion from men's shelters.
It is the blessing and the curse of womankind that they expect nice things to be served to them on a platter. This is their right and privilege in many areas of life. But no one can whisk away reality for them—especially not the reality of grunt work and obsessive networking, by which men create resources and lavish them on their wives and daughters.
I agree with your analysis. (And I am a woman.)
