Christianity is heavily feminized, and has been for atleast a century. Likely two or more.
No, seriously. Historically, women have been seen as the spiritual center of the family, while the husband deals with earthly matters. So scripture and teachings on sunday are focused and interpreted to appeal to... women! Women also influence the purse strings of the family, encouraging more spending toward the church. Win win.
Christianity as taught is cucked because it's operating from a feminine perspective and prerogative. Women are weak, must be protected, and they refuse to even acknowledge women's power and privilege in modern society.
If you want a very radical contrast, look at how appealing Joshua Graham in Fallout New Vegas is to everyone, despite(more likely, because of) how religious he is. His interpretation is very powerful, direct, masculine interpretation of scripture, forcing you to action and urging you to fight evil. He is a godly man, unashamed in his worship, yet will proactively respond with lethal force if necessary without hesitation.
Quite the difference from modern 'let someone else abuse you and become their bitch boy if they act against you'.

And the solution to this, from my point of view, is for men to rightfully reassert their positions within Christianity as the leaders. The start is for men to start going to church again and playing an active role. Men need to stop conceding ground to women and recapture what they have lost.

I think this may be true in recent times - probably due to the rise of feminism in the West and is knock-on effects - but in my view this is certainly not what God intended. Christianity is meant to be patriarchal because that is the natural order of things. It is men's role to lead. This could not be any more explicit than Ephesians 5:24:
As the church is subject to Christ, so let wives also be subject in everything to their husbands.
As Christians, men are meant to lead spiritually and they need to do so again. They can do so by getting themselves in order - turning away from sin and being faithful to the Gospel - and being role models and eventually leaders as they continue to develop spiritually and in their relationship with God in their local Christian communities. And spreading the Good News to other men to do the same.

Part of the issue is male leadership in the church. IE, the priesthood.
No, not in the way you're thinking. See, I had a weird upbringing, so I'm familiar with what men have to go through to become an actual priest. And one of the things involved is a college education.
Priests aren't stupid. I think most of them are very, very smart. Educated, at the very least. Smart enough to realize what could be the most threatening factor to civilization as it stands - single, violent young men at odds and bereft from the world as a whole.
Hence the overall push - to start young, and keep pushing the modern interpretation of scripture, shorn of historical context, neutered of violence and pushed overall to be docile.
Do I have proof? No. This is pure theory, pure conjecture. And likely just one factor among many. But I don't think I'm wrong. We'll see.
No doubt there are many contributing components. I don't disagree with your comment, but I would put it another way - the priesthood reflects the population they are from, or in other words, we get the priests we deserve.
I still think the most important factor, at least the one the individual men can actually make a dent into, is that men as a whole are too enslaved by sin to lead as Christians. You just need to look at this forum to see multitudes of men defending their own enslavement by pornography, masturbation and fornication (sexual sins are probably to most easy to fall into, especially for men, which is why chastity is a universal virtue). At a first step, individual men need to choose not to sin for their own sake, i.e. their own personal salvation, and once they start doing so they can step into the role God intends - to lead their societies according to His law.
What is it with so many tradcucks being so eager to put the cuck in tradcuck as of late?
