Its like how modern people look back on the way women were treated 50 years ago. Future societies will be disgusted at how poorly average men were treated and how feminist movements took advantage of this. However, hindsight is always 20/20. A far future, near post scarcity society where survival recourses and companionship are considered a "human right," will not be confined by the same constraints modern society is and will thus judge us as "deprived and barbaric".
Its easy for modern people to judge past societies at how they treated women cause they fail to realize that the constraints of the time made it inevitable. Women had to give birth to large amounts of children to allow humans to survive in an era were diseases created a very high fatality rate. It's the same with modern society. Now men have it slightly worse than women, due to the constraints of technology and society. In the future, when technology allows for increased recourse production and absolute control over biology, the same factors making life hard for modern men will disappear.
