...The same was true for either genders, a spouse of either genders not getting some was socially treated as a crime (though legal consequences varied - usually it was just grounds for divorce).

Treating this as a gender only issue only proves to demonstrate that while giving lip service to equality, at it's core feminism is an expression of gender-exclusive empathy and about placing the well being of one gender above the other. And it has won - this is what we do as a society - both men and women care more about women.

Depends actually - in practice it's almost never gets prosecuted, especially when you consider the study I linked and use it as as a measurement for how frequent rape by women actually is.
