We, mostly women, are socialised, mostly by men, to not empathize with men.

I'm curious as to what socialization you're referring to? Growing up, I was a voracious reader, and most of the protagonists in the books I read were male. While it may not have been the intent, it taught me to empathize with people, whether they were male or female.

A lot of the main characters in sci fi films are male. And again, I put myself in the shoes of that viewpoint character. Even on a lot of TV shows, we're shown the issues and problems of male characters and expected to understand and empathize because of what we're being shown.

So I'm really curious as to where you think we are being socialized to not empathize with men.
