What makes you assume women don't know?
We do. We've been telling you men for years that dominance hierarchy hurts you too. Years.
So no, the purpose was not to educate. It was to request help. That was specifically the language used in the article.
But women cannot fix the that internalized belief system for men any more than men could/can for women. Each person has to do their own work, regardless of their gender.
The only thing women can "do" for men is what women asked of men. Stay out of their way, and not obstruct for your own gain.
But who's in their way? The vast majority of mocking and shaming men receive about their manhood comes from other men. Very very little of it is coming from women.
