Yes the catch 22 is that there is nothing more traditionally masculine than protecting the weak, women and children. Thus philanthropist men will queue up to be seen to protect the weak and needy, by which of course they mean women and children. And everyone remains mystified about how to solve "rough sleeping" (90% men) nor notices the incongruence of the claims to be weak and needy, and "amazing" and "strong women" simultaneously.
