It is only recently that any work has been produced that reduces the cognitive distance of women for men, and men are still often discouraged from consuming this work.
I think a big problem in reducing the cognitive distance is that when you describe many different details, people will automatically label some of these differences as good or bad. Then, acknowledging these difference makes you connotationally sexist.
This is how trying to reverse the stupidity of sexism sometimes lead to people not understanding each other, and actually not being socially allowed to understand.
