Do you think society ignores problems facing men and boys?

Asked by Demosthenes (14926points) June 5th, 2019

Such as the over-diagnosis of ADD in young boys, fatherless homes, divorce proceedings that favor the woman, the higher rate of suicide in men, etc.?

How much discussion of these issues do you come across (anywhere—discussion among friends, online, the radio, in the news, in books)? I hear quite a lot about women and women’s issues, but men’s issues I hear less about. I think it’s often assumed that people who care about men’s issues are “MRAs” or “incels” but that is an unfair generalization that just ensures the issues will continue to be ignored.

What do you consider to be valid issues facing men and boys today? What are your proposed solutions for them?
