    It’s time to find compassion for boys and men. A shift in public perspective is overdue, and progress can accelerate if women—particularly those with liberal values—champion this cause, because the future isn’t female: The future is everyone. New from me for the @latimes 🙌

    Did you know that: The suicide rate for boys & girls is the same until 10 years old At 10 - 14, boys become 2x more likely to die by suicide 15 - 19, they become 4x more likely to die by suicide 20 - 25, 5x more likely... Shouldn’t we, as a society, do something about this?

    Dear men, You are valued. You are loved. You are not “the problem” Together, we can work on solutions to actual problems. Sincerely, Rational women

    When will everyone come to understand that it’s US who have driven men away? For decades, society has disrespected and neglected them, insisting they are unnecessary while only prioritizing support for girls and women. Men have been marginalized, and now we are left wondering why

    Tea, a new app that lets women anonymously share photos and personal details of men they're dating for feedback, is going viral. Promoted as a safety tool for women navigating the dating world, it has sparked concerns about potential misuse and privacy violations. And… I don’t

    Boys without fathers are: 9x more likely to drop out of school 5x more likely to die by suicide 32x more likely to run away from home 20x more likely to go to prison We must promote the significance of men & involved-dads in every way possible! Right now, we do the opposite.

    My friend’s 14-year-old daughter told me that girls in her class always use the threat “I’ll say you raped me!” towards the boys. She laughed. This is bad. Very, very bad 😧 What can we do about this?

    When girls were behind in education, we said, 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦’𝘴 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮. Now that boys are behind, it’s 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦’𝘴 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘣𝘰𝘺𝘴. That double standard isn’t just unfair, it’s unacceptable.

    My nephew told me he’s embarrassed to be a boy. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. If young boys think the world is against them, they will grow up and be against the world! Think about it. We must encourage boys to be proud of their manhood!

    Did you know 7/10 suicides in America are white men? I think we should stop making them society’s punching bag.

    We must value men again. We must value fathers again. We must value the family again. We must stop suggesting that men are toxic and we must give boys a sense of confidence and purpose.

    Men are 4x more likely to die by suicide. Researchers analyzed the language men used who have attempted suicide, and they found that “useless” was the most frequent word they said to describe themselves. What can we do to make men feel valued and needed in our modern times?

    And here we go again. A new day, a new anti-men/poor women article from the NYTimes. It never ends. Feminist scholars have come up with a new term ‘mankeeping’ which frames women supporting their men’s mental health as a burden on women. This is truly toxic. Sickening.

    Johnny Depp said in his statement “I hope that my quest to have the truth be told will have helped others, men or women, who have found themselves in my situation…” Johnny is standing for listening to ALL victims of DV, while Amber and the mainstream media only care about women.
