The boy child is under-empowered. This was the response from one person after going through many posts of ladies asking to meet men on several online forums. The ladies stated their preferences and what they wanted in men which looked like there were not enough men at the top to meet the ladies' demands. That is not the case.
It is still a man's world despite ladies making great strides. As more and more ladies are going to the top, they begin to realise that it is lonely up there. The men at the top are already taken or prefer ladies a rung lower in status. It is not about the boy child being ignored.
