Could your perception that men don't see this as "their issue" be influenced by the algorithms determining your article feed?" I googled "Gisele Pelicot" and of the first 12 articles, only two more articles were by women than by men, and the gap was equal to the number not credited to either gender. Not exactly scientific, but doesn't look like an obvious dearth of men writing about it. I also looked at the first two crowd shots of demonstrators outside the courthouse. Of the people with identifiable gender, there seemed to be roughly equal numbers of men and women. Again, not scientific of course, but I would be extremely surprised to encounter a man who was not outraged by this.

I was an artist until my thirties when I discovered computers and jumped ship for a few decades. Now I'm back to it. You can probably find some on instagram.
