There is absolutely a female loneliness epidemic, but it tends to come from the most silenced of the demographics, childless lower/middle income single women who are over thirty. There are few representations of these women in media, and basically none that are positive, with the most common representation of them is stories about them 'finding love', thus removing themselves from the demographic.
However, they are, in general, not a threat to others so very few people will actually take the time or money to look into this particular phenomena.
