It is a fact of life, that men with low income are less likely to get married and more likely to be divorced when married, stats support the life observation as well.
Also most employers prefer to hire females in low-income office jobs, so the men who lack high education or expertise or work experience really really really have it much worse, if they can't have a mid-career then they end up unemployed. Let's not forget that there are way more low-entry jobs than mid-career or senior jobs in most economies, so those who are excluded from the low-entry jobs (men) have it hard to start somewhere.
Here, lemme give you a concrete example: http://i.imgur.com/rd3bNAH.jpg

You see the pattern? Low-job vacancies target females. A reason for that is because they assume that women are less likely to complain about low wage, and more likely to stay content with it (because they assume their husbands surely work and would support them).
Now, in the western countries, you won't see this over-honesty in job ads because the law forbids it there, but law cannot scan employers' minds - I am sure many employers across the world have very similar assumptions when it comes to gender and employment, and anti-discrimination organizations or anti-something of that sort won't check what's going on in every small company, only the few large corporations are under such kind of surveillance.
You can see it yourself when you check the sex ratios of low-entry jobs in most small/medium companies, especially low-entry office jobs, which are predominantly female even in the western worlds.
