Failing to redress the issues facing young men will push them further towards the far right
in several areas there is now a reverse gender gap, with boys, particularly those from poorer backgrounds, struggling to keep up with girls
Do you think this is an important issue?
Only commenting because I can’t down vote on my instance. This is repulsive MRA fluff from a consistently misogynistic writer. Nothing to add because its not worth platforming.
Describing the content of that article as REPULSIVE is just deeply misandrist. Why is it seemingly impossible for people to care about more than one demographic at once.

Doesn’t need we need to listen and share disgusting people just because the issue they’re coopting actually somewhat real
