on education, homelessness, drug abuse, suicide, imprisonment, longevity, and the like would cause a national outcry if even one of them were flipped around.

If all of them were I think the world would isolate us and do their best to forget we ever existed. Even countries that treat women horribly still have women living slightly longer than men.

Oh well. I guess sucking it up and dealing with all that without any sort of financial assistance plus the social stigma if you fail is yet another male privilege.
