Why is the decline of men celebrated?

I saw these this article and this article and couldn't help but wonder if perhaps the thing to take away from them both is that boys are failing at schools and that it appears that no one cares.

Now is the time to look at what is causing this decline, not in 20 years time when only 20% of graduates or less are males and the male youth of today are minimum wage workers without an education.

Gotta love how the first article basically leads itself to the conclusion that educated women may have to get together with other women because, generally speaking, men have a preference towards less educated women, when I've personally seen the opposite to be true.

I have several well educated female friends who are single and I can actually correct that assumption that it's the men choosing to marry down, it's the women choosing not to marry up.  Several of the women I know have turned down well-paid decent guys who were tradespeople because "I couldn't marry someone who'd never gone to University".

How many educated women earning more than $100k a year do you know would be happy marrying a guy who worked as a janitor?  My guess is not many.

So, men are losing out in the education stakes, are losing out in careers as a result and not being "marriageable", but are still blamed for refusing to 'marry up'.  Clearly all the single men are to blame because there are "no good men left".  Single men should just be better.  Got it.
