Is there treatment for Gender Inferiority based Depression?

I know immediately many people will think I’m a “feminist troll”, and I guess I can’t prove I’m not..but I am a REAL 20 year old guy who is not involved in feminist activism of any sort really.. I have become, over the past year, very depressed about being a guy to put in bluntly. Don’t misunderstand…I’m not feeling like I need a change or anything. What I mean is that I see all these reports and books like “Man Down”, “Are men Necessary” etc…and even MEN are echoing the idea that women are the superior . And why not? statistics seem to back it up. Women graduate college more often. But I see all these heartless men think it’s a joke…they think its “Cute” and “progressive” to make the case women are smarter because they came from a generation where men were powerful they think its just evening the field. They sit on talk shows with female hosts and just serve them up a major ego boost. But in my generation boys are becoming the inferior …and it disgusts me to see people take it lightly that their sons will be dirt under their daughters’ feet. Also, in regards to science, males are being born less because of certain environmental factors The Y chromosome is decaying and many theorize that males may become extinct. XY (males) are just a corruption of XX(females) anyway. I used to be a pretty faithful Christian but lost my faith a few years ago for various reasons. I believed somewhat in “gender roles” (not a “get in the kitchen type thing, just that guys brought certain things into raising a child) and that men had a very important role to play in the world. Now that I accept all science, and modern psychology; I know how we got here how we got here and there is no special place for me. And men pretty much are obsolete. I dwell on this all the time. I had a bad home environment and moved out about 4 months ago…I didn’t return to community college this semester to save money. I’m just living with my roommate. I’m saving money and planning on going back in the fall. I feel horribly intimidated though, I nearly throw up every time I go to cl. And to make matters worse, I want to become a teacher, and education is a heavily female field. So, I’m surrounded by girls in a lot of the cles I take. I know there probably not a bunch of evil man-haters…but I just feel terrified of being found inferior in my contributions ot the cl..that I’m being judged that I don’t belong etc.. I don’t know if therapy would help me. I tried it once for OCD symptoms back in high school, it didn’t seem to help much. I had to just take my problems up myself. But with his, its just so difficult and I can’t talk to anyone about it because people get angry with me when I tell them how I feel about all this. Women think I’m starting a "pity party" so I can try and guilt women for feminism. And guys don’t like facing the facts that they might be the inferior gender. And I doubt a therapist could change my outlook either. Is there any suggestion on how to deal with this? Maybe self treatment or exposure to certain things?
