"Mankeeping" is a term coined by researchers to describe the excessive, often invisible, emotional and social labor women perform to manage, support, and "upkeep" the men in their lives. Women do this largely because of internalized societal expectations, the rising "[male loneliness epidemic]", and traditional, yet unbalanced, caregiving roles that treat men's needs as a default priority
