are men more compliant than women
by enoughisenough ini watched a video once of men being trained ...it was a study.
they had the men doing the most rediculous things-can't remember quite what now.
so between that video, the letter to elders to keep their mouths shut about the koolaid, and to go along with the csa protocol, and what i will call insurance fraud by the jw, and who knows what other things the men in positions in the org go along with-these things prompt the question.

It's also interesting when you account for the fact that the Women in the Organization far outnumber the men. Women tend to be more socially-focused. Men tend to have a focus on authority and prominence, although this differs by upbringing and generations.
Less and less of the younger men are accepting responsibilities. When you are barely scraping by, working full time to rent a 1 bedroom apartment, it makes it a little challenging to care about cleaning toilets at the kingdom hall, let alone preparing and giving talks. The men that are defending the Organization in court have nothing to lose because they have been supported their entire life by them.
I know a brother who was booted from bethel in his 60s after decades of service. He became a special pioneer and had to live in the Kingdom Hall basement because he didn't know how to function in society and work to provide for himself. He is now lonely, poor, and puts all his remaining energy into his elder duties because he has no life aside from it. Millennials and Gen Z have examples like his, and don't want to repeat that mistake.
