Finding myself vaguely disappointed in the replies to "What do you like about being a man?" thread and I'm not quite clear on why.

I think there's a real thing being pointed at there which is that the default heterosexual norms of men approaching women do (especially but not exclusively in male dominated spaces) end up giving women a lot more freedom of choice than men feel like they have.
So it's less "women are choosier" and more "our social conventions are set up to give women the ability to more easily be choosy". I don't think those norms do either gender any favours TBH, but it sucks from both sides in different ways.

That's a different conversation than is happening in your "what's good about being a man?" replies

Yeah, it is, but I think it comes from roughly the same root feeling. People don't necessarily conceptualise their problems sensibly. A lot of that specific conversation I just noped out of though.
