re: What happened to men?

I believe the most important thing the OP said is simply that men don't meet in groups anymore, and I think we suffer from it as a gender.
Having an "honor group" with a code and morals and standards of behavior (whatever they may be... It doesn't matter) is one of the things that consistently reinforces masculinity in our society.
Men are more isolated now in their little suburban fiefdoms where they are surrounded by wife, daughters, mom and mother in law more than they are surrounded by brothers and friends.
They are letting women define what should be masculine instead of letting men as a group decide. The male group think currently has no worth in society.

The MC world is one of the last bastions if what you're saying we've lost as a society.
