Interesting enough interview, albeit a bit wince-inducing at a time where women's rights are under direct attack.
While men can step in to help provide male role models, there are few realistic solutions to obscene levels of income inequality, which Scott points to as the root causation.
As noted, there are more lobbyists than Senators.
Antitrust law enforcement is stymied by armies of corporate lawyers who vastly outnumber government attorneys.
The few community-based programs for young men largely evaporated after the pandemic. Schools are under-resourced, and too many Americans don't want their taxes raised to fund school programs.
The few solutions that are possible aren't probable with gerrymandering, dark money, a distracted or apathetic populace, lobbyists, Ivy-league law firms, an antagonist SCOTUS, etc.
So, even accepting Scott's premise of the crisis facing America's boys/men, there are no realistic solutions without fundamental changes to our institutions and society.
Maybe, just perhaps, the attributes assigned to women culturally and biologically (ie emotional intelligence, team building, communication skills, nurturing, multi-tasking) are simply the attributes needed to function in the 21st century and the male role models you say society needs should help young men succeed by emulating them.
