So the commanders of those men dying in battle or the ones running the companies whose coal miners were dying, or or or...just because men have suffered doesn't mean men has a cohort have not been at the top of the food chain. The point is that it is men controlling everyone else: men, women, etc until somewhat recently, historically.

So no, not useless and maybe should help color the conversation a bit more on WHY men are feeling as they are, because the power dynamics of society are shifting, of which men have been led to believe that they would, in fact, be at the top forever.
