Another way to interpret the data might be, "When interviewed by researchers, men talked more openly about their feelings than they did a decade ago."
Double negative makes this hard to read
That's the clearest version. Just drop the negatives.
It's thin because we don't have enough data to say otherwise and everyone else is doing worse? Go get more data then before negating the signals and the two confirming data points we have. I "don't buy" is not a reason. It could be everyone is doing worse and men are doing worse than most (or impacted the most), those are not mutually exclusive.
I cannot imagine how much more difficult it would have been with social media and cameras everywhere like it is today.

You can't imagine the stress and anxiety that is fabricated by immature minds from being on the internet all of the time?
