Specifics 
While it may seem that way here--the context is to the environment. That statement can be taken generally given the people in the conversation being from places that have that. Added context is the matters of the internet and other mediums of communication--it opens up far more awareness for reading and exposure. And the only way these things get worse if people are only treated as concepts rather than...people. That's the whole measure of communication, to address the people rather than only the concepts seen about them.
Do you have to seriously go "but it might be only your country! LOOK AT SAUDI ARABIA FOR EXAMPLE!". Just don't, this is the crazy feminazi rethoric - the patriarchy is still stronk so men issues don't matter. I know that I am hyperboling as fuck and attacking you somewhat, but this is exactly what I see now. At this point I don't understand what you seem to be attacking to the point I don't even know what the hell should I defend.
Right, I don't live everywhere, I don't know how things look everywhere. But, based on countries that I know from my life or partially know from internet, I say that the "western" world, as in - most of developed Europe, USA, etc. are like this (or should, but let's put the recent politically-geographic developments of illegals in Europe aside).
And good luck adressing all the ~7,5 billion people in the world personally.
As for specifics - how many times the beloved US ex-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton adressed men's issues? If she did, how much of it became a major thing in her campaing? Yeah. How many times she adressed women issues? Yeah...
Basically: Bumblebee is right in that one post addressed to ya The attention depends on the culture and environment.
Comparison shall not help if it becomes the conclusion.
I'm not saying that he was not. He is, but I really skipped over his post because it is clear that I am generalizing (before you say that generalization is bad - try to talk about whole male population of developed countries without generalizing). I suppose if you are rich then women give you attention, but that only magnifies the issue - the only way for a guy to get attention unwanted is to be filthy rich (or be a god-incarnate when it comes to attractivness, but that usually requires money).
And women? Poor, medicore working women still and often are victims of mobbing, so can attractive women in executive places. I am not saying that men cannot be mobbed in work, but you'd be blind to not see the pattern.
And comprasion helps to establish what the bulk of the problem is.
