Thanks for the link, interesting read( I read the transcript). A section here:

VOLPE: Yeah. Yeah. Like Harris said, it's an easy solution. And you know, speaking of, like, some of these people, like Andrew Tate, like, their messages of, like, you know, you need to have women around you only to dominate them. And, like, those sort of messages, I think, are very appealing for men who feel like their place in the world is being threatened. And so it's very easy to say, like, oh, yeah, like, maybe they just need a girlfriend or a friend and, like, they'll be better.

And I think that maps neatly onto the way that we socialize boys and men, too, to sort of value that one romantic relationship, and, like, that is the thing...

This might be one of the reasons. But it is interesting that the survey says it is only 1% less of women than men feeling lonely. Would be interesting to know the country too. Not all societies are the same, and in some friendships between men are similar in connection like between 2 women.
