Probably because they can. Lots of women get away with it on a daily basis. It's a double standard that is still allowed in a lot of Western cultures, but men are slowly but surely speaking up about it, and society is starting to see it for what it is...gender discrimination against men.
Hopefully a change will be made soon.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
