Epidemic of Female Teachers Who Rape Their Male Students

WASHINGTON / April 9, 2026 – The sordid accounts of female teachers who engage in sexual misconduct their male students are appearing with increasing regularity in the media. These four incidents were reported in just the last 10 days:

Haley Beck, Peoria, AZ – Over a six-week period, Beck exchanged more than 4,000 text messages about sexual and illegal activity with a male student at Centennial High School (1).
Marie Donaldson, San Simon, AZ – The woman had her teaching license revoked after she was accused on 10 counts of inappropriate sexual contact with a male high school student (2).
Ashley Fisler, Washington, NJ – Charged with first-degree aggravated sexual assault of a preteen boy, Judge William Ziegler denied the middle school teacher’s request to be released from jail until her trial took place (3).
Tera Johnson-Swartz, Douglas County, CO – The woman was sentenced to 14 years in prison after being charged on two criminal counts — the first following a grand jury investigation into her relationship with the teen, and the second for continuing to contact the boy, despite court orders not to (4).

One nation-wide analysis conducted in 2022 identified 262 school personnel in nearly every state in the country who had been arrested on child sex crimes. The offenders included 290 teachers, 26 substitute teachers, 25 teachers’ aides, five principals, and three assistant principals (5).

Sexual misconduct by teachers has become so widespread that a “Teacher Accountability System” has now been established (6). The online database currently lists over 17,000 cases in all 50 states. The free resource is updated on an ongoing basis, and allows searches on a broad range of variables.

In her contacts with imprisoned female sex offenders, psychotherapist Stacy Kaiser has made these observations (7):

The most common profile of a female sex predator is a white woman in her 30s.
Many of the teacher sex predators used social media to connect with their victims outside the classroom setting.
Some female sex predators don’t think they committed any kind of crime.

Media accounts often downplay the severity of the allegation, relying on headlines that avoid the word, “rape,” and instead refer to the assault as “having sex.” (8)

Research reveals a broad range of harmful effects on male students who are victims of sexual misconduct. These include psychological and mental health harms, intimacy issues, substance abuse and suicide risks, and academic impacts (9).

Americans should take seriously the harmful impact of female-perpetrated sexual violence on young men.

Sexual Assaults of Underage Boys by Female Teachers

Sexual Assaults of Underage Boys by Female Teachers

SAVE

April 2, 2026

An increasing number of female teachers across the United States are being arrested, tried, and convicted as sex predators of male students. According to a 2024 report (see original article here):

“Though cases vary, the most common physical profile of a female teacher sex predator is a white woman in her 30s.”
“The tactics of female teacher sex predators vary, but according to [psychotherapist Stacy] Kaiser, many of them use social media as a means to connect with their victims outside a classroom setting.”
“In her analysis of individual cases and larger predatory patterns, Kaiser concluded that a number of female teachers who are sex predators often think they haven’t committed any kind of crime.”

The media headline usually refers to the assault as “having sex” or “abusing” the child. The word “rapist” appears only once in the 21 headlines: https://nypost.com/2026/03/25/us-news/accused-rapist-teacher-colleen-jo-matarico-unrecognizable-in-court/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=nypost

Following is a listing of 21 cases reported in the media from May, 2023 to March, 2026. All but one of victims were boys. The judicial sentences for these cases were:

Sentence still pending: 2
No prison/community service: 7

Historic Breakthroughs as Men Notch Advances Across the Nation

WASHINGTON / April 1, 2026 – This past week witnessed a series of historic advances for men and boys at the state and federal levels:

California Gov. Gavin Newsom convened state leaders in Sacramento to review progress in implementing his whole-of-government Executive Order that he issued last year. Newsom noted, “Today’s convening underscored what’s possible when we come together to support the next generation.” (1)
The Massachusetts Commission on the Status of Boys and Men was launched to create a permanent body to help men and boys. (2)
The Institute for Family Studies issued a landmark, 74-page report on the challenges faced by young men. (3)
The Coalition for an Office on Men’s Health, sponsored by SAVE, was launched consisting of 10 member organizations. The Coalition is working to establish the first-ever office on men’s health in the Department of Health and Human Services. (4)
Representatives from the National Council for Equal Shared Parenting met with federal lawmakers in Washington, DC to discuss the importance of equal shared parenting for fathers. (5)

To date, three bills designed to support men and boys have been introduced in Congress (6):

White House Council on Fathers and Sons Act, H.R. 7800
Dads Matter Act, H.R. 5828 and S. 2131
State of Men’s Health Act, H.R. 7602

In Virginia, SB447 would create an Advisory Commission for Boys and Men. The bill was overwhelmingly approved in the House and Senate, and now awaits final approval by Gov. Abigail Spanberger. (7)

In addition, numerous media reports during the past week highlighted the problem of men as victims of domestic violence. One widely circulated video depicted Taylor Frankie Paul of The Bachelorette and Secret Lives of Mormon Wives hurling a chair at her boyfriend in 2023. (8) Subsequent incidents of alleged abuse by the woman have been reported, as well. (9, 10)

Following the Taylor Frankie Paul episodes, at least two full-length articles have been published about male victims of female-perpetrated abuse:

Lisa Britton, Evie Magazine: “The Side of Domestic Violence Nobody Will Say Out Loud” (11)
Emma Johnson, Best Interest: “Now Mainstream: Women are Violent, Too” (12)

The November mid-term elections are approaching in seven months. In anticipation, SAVE has prepared a PowerPoint program on How to Engage with the Male Voter to Assure Election Victory. (13)

Young Men are Not ‘Lost.’ Rather, They Are Under Assault.

Young Men are Not ‘Lost.’ Rather, They Are Under Assault.

WASHINGTON / March 26, 2026 – No one disputes the fact that men are disengaging from romantic relationships with members of the female sex. The question is, Why? A recent survey by the Institute for Family Studies sheds light on this cultural divide.

The survey queried 2,000 unmarried men ages 18-29 about their dating efforts. One question found that 52% of the men strongly or somewhat agreed with this statement: “I’ve tried to find someone to go out with me, but it has been difficult.” (1)

And 58% of the young men agreed with the statement that “I am reluctant to ask someone out because I fear being rejected.”

In other words, a majority of young men have tried to connect romantically with women, but find themselves confronting a seemingly endless series of dilemmas, such as:

Should he pay for dinner, or split the cost 50-50?
Is he looking for a career woman, even if she wants a “tradwife” relationship?
If he is confident and decisive, will she deride him for being too “macho”?

When men set out in search of a romantic relationship, they also encounter a cultural narrative that ridicules and demeans men. Last year the New York Times published an opinion piece by Jean Garnett with the title, “The Trouble with Wanting Men.”

The commentary opens with this sweeping accusation: “Women are so fed up with dating men that the phenomenon even has a name: heterofatalism.” (2) These are just a few of the article’s make-believe stereotypes:

“men are what is rotten in the state of straightness.”
“Where were the men who could handle hard stuff? Like leaving the house for sex?”
“I experience desire in terms of a struggle that someone must lose.”

In response, Rikki Schlott of the New York Post charged Garnett’s article is “part of a genre of man-hating thought pieces that turn hetero love and dating into an all-out gender war — and totally absolve women of any agency or responsibility in their relationships.” (3)

Schlott trenchantly concludes, “outlets like the Times seem hellbent on amplifying the voices of the most bitter and dysfunctional women who bring their misery upon themselves and distract from the actual issues at hand.”

Recent data show men often hold stronger pro-family values than women. Compared to women, men are more likely to view marriage positively (38% vs. 22%), aspire to parenthood (57% vs. 45%), prefer larger families (48% vs. 37%), and identify as pro-life (47% vs. 44%). Men also exhibit lower rates of marital infidelity and divorce initiation. (4)

So the New York Times needs to reconsider its anti-male crusade, and men need to speak out assertively in the face of such editorial drivel.

Half of All Men Say They Are Targets of Sex Discrimination

Half of All Men Say They Are Targets of Sex Discrimination

WASHINGTON / March 11, 2026 – Across the nation, Target stores are selling sweaters emblazoned with the demeaning words, “Dump Him.” Evie magazine writer Lisa Britton commented, “I stood there, staring, feeling a mix of disbelief and frustration. Can you imagine if, in the men’s department, a similar sweater screamed ‘Dump Her’? The backlash would be immediate and deafening.” (1)

Now, American men are beginning to take note of these slights.

The Survey Center on American Life reports men increasingly believe they have been targets of sex discrimination. Since 2019, the percentage of young men who believe there is “some” or “a lot” of discrimination against men has ballooned to 51%, up from only 32% in 2019. (2)

Some may seek to discount these findings, claiming that “patriarchy” still runs rampant in American society. But these partisans ignore the fact that in numerous areas, men are lagging behind women:

Education: 47% of U.S. women ages 25 to 34 have a bachelor’s degree, compared with only 37% of men (3).
Health: Men die more than five years earlier than women (4).
Shared Parenting: Only one-third of divorced fathers share physical custody of their child with the mother (5).

Similar disparities are seen in 12 areas including homelessness, workplace deaths, and many more (6).

But ironically, advocates of “gender equality” only focus on issues that affect women. And feminists are becoming increasingly nervous over the fact that lawmakers are paying greater attention to the concerns of men (7).

Last month, federal lawmakers introduced the State of Men’s Health Act, H.R. 7602, to establish an Office of Men’s Health in the Department of Health and Human Services (8). Currently, DHHS has seven offices of women’s health — and no offices of men’s health. Feminist proponents of “patriarchy” theory have yet to explain the Department’s long-standing neglect of men’s health.

But feminists are pushing back, claiming a resurgence of the dreaded “manosphere.” Within a few days, Netflix – the well-known bastion of gender extremism — will be releasing Inside the Manosphere. The program dismisses the manosphere as a “grim coalition of supercar-worshipping, antifeminist influencers.”

In a recent gushy interview, producer Louis Theroux does not cite a single research study or objective source to back up his flamboyant claims (9). It’s all a mélange of clichés, ideological projection, and over-worked stereotypes. Needless to say, Theroux does not bother to mention the 12 areas of male disadvantage.

Of course, the Netflix video never highlights the growing numbers of women are now speaking out in opposition to the divisive feminist movement – women such as Carrie Gress, Hannah Pearl Davis, Riley Gaines, Shannen Michaela, and many others.

One day, Americans will accept — without hesitation or doubt — the notion that “gender equality” applies equally to men.

USA Hockey Victory Heralds Renaissance of Men and Masculinity

USA Hockey Victory Heralds Renaissance of Men and Masculinity

WASHINGTON / March 4, 2026 – For the last 50 years, American men have been subjected to a wave of criticism and vilification, routinely accused of being abusers, deadbeats, “patriarchal oppressors,” and more. But now men are pushing back, citing research that shows women are equally likely to be domestic abusers (1), and saying there is no such thing as “patriarchy.”

Amidst this toxic cultural narrative, 2,900 athletes, male and female, from 92 countries gathered in Milan, Italy for the 2026 Winter Olympics. On the last day of the 17-day sports extravaganza, the American and Canadian men’s hockey teams met for their long-anticipated championship game.

Just 1:41 into overtime, Jack Hughes scored the game-winning goal, securing the United States’ first Olympic gold in men’s hockey since 1980. The team’s thrilling 2-1 overtime victory stands as a symbol of resilience and determination (2).

In response, feminists became critical of the men, although the exact reasons remain unclear. Some of the backlash may have stemmed from a post-game telephone call from President Donald Trump, who congratulated the players and invited them to visit the White House. Trump jokingly remarked that he had to invite the U.S. women’s team, as well, or else “face impeachment.” (3)

This off-handed comment was perceived by some as dismissive of the women’s accomplishments, leading to criticism on social media. But others wondered if supporters of the women’s team simply were jealous of the attention being afforded to the men.

The controversy escalated when soccer icon Megan Rapinoe weighed in, calling the men’s team “clowns” for allowing themselves to be “co-opted” by Trump (4).

And Jack Hughes faced calls to apologize for his team’s reaction. But Hughes refused to proffer an apology, noting that many of the male and female players had trained together (5).

Over the course of the week, a growing wave of persons rallied in support of the male players:

Characterizing the triumph as “another big, brash win for American men,” writer Glenn Reynolds noted that “masculinity’s comeback makes America thrive.” (6)
Commentator Clay Travis highlighted the men’s unapologetic patriotism, and criticized the media reaction as “woke BS.” (7)
Noting that the male players had attended the women’s game, hockey player Megan Keller commented, “I’ve never been more proud to pull on the USA jersey.” (8)

These plaudits underscore a broader cultural shift.

The USA men’s Olympic hockey victory affirms athletic excellence, and also refutes long-standing, false gender stereotypes.

Growing Momentum Across the Nation to Remedy ‘Crisis’ of Men’s Health

WASHINGTON / February 26, 2026 – Public figures, researchers, and celebrities have described the current state of men’s health as in a state of “crisis.” (1) During a recent radio address, Prince William deplored soaring male suicide rates in the UK as a “national catastrophe.” (2)

For years, men’s health has suffered from a state of benign neglect. But recent developments across the nation reveal a revitalization of concern over the fact that American men are dying five years sooner than women, and suicide rates of men are four times higher (3).

In response, last week the State of Men’s Health Act, H.R. 7602, was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives. The law calls for a detailed analysis of the leading causes of male mortality, and will establish an Office of Men’s Health in the Department of Health and Human Services.

In Maryland, last month a bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced a bill to establish the Maryland Commission for Boys’ and Men’s Health (4). The bill highlights the importance of men’s health, not only to affirm the fundamental human rights of men, but also to promote economic productivity in the State of Maryland.

The crisis of men’s health is being addressed in other states, as well:

California: Gov. Gavin Newsom issued an executive order last July to address high suicide rates among men and boys (5).
Virginia: SB 447, recently passed in both the Senate and House, establishes the Virginia Boys and Men Advisory Commission, and calls for eliminating the “disparity in health outcomes.” (6)
Washington State: House Bill 2401 highlights the importance of men’s health. (7)

In November, the American Medical Association approved a resolution urging states to establish offices of men’s health. The resolution states, “Our AMA encourages the establishment of an Office of Men’s Health within each state’s Department of Health and Human Services to coordinate awareness, outreach, and outcomes on men’s health.” (8)

In Congress, the Dads Matter Act has been introduced both in the Senate (S. 2131) and House of Representatives (H.R. 5828). The Dads Matter Act will encourage fathers of newborns and fathers-to-be to become actively involved in promoting the welfare of both the mother and child.

But funding for research on male-specific diseases such as prostate cancer has lagged, compared to funding for female-specific conditions. Over the years, 14% of the NIH research budget has been allocated for women’s health, with only 6% allocated to men’s health (9).

The men’s health issue goes beyond considerations of morbidity and mortality. When an older man dies prematurely, his surviving wife faces a higher likelihood of nursing home admission (1).

Premature male mortality cost $697 billion in 2020 alone, in terms of diminished economic productivity of men:

Suicide: $387 billion (10)
Cardiovascular disease and stroke: $234 billion (11)
Cancer: $76 billion (12)

Men’s Health Week will be celebrated during the week leading up to Father’s Day, June 14-20 (13)). SAVE urges lawmakers consider their male family members, friends, and colleagues as they redouble efforts to eliminate the crisis of men’s health.

AOC Remarks About Men are Negating Democrat Efforts to Reconnect with Male Voters

AOC Remarks About Men are Negating Democrat Efforts to Reconnect with Male Voters

WASHINGTON / February 23, 2026 – Male voters are the new “power demographic” of the American electorate (1). During the 2024 presidential election, 4.5 million male voters abandoned the Democratic Party, handing the election victory to Donald Trump. (2)

In response, the Democratic governors of California, Maryland, and Michigan launched new outreach programs for men and boys. And Virginia Democrats advanced a bill to create an Advisory Commission for Boys and Men (3).

But not all Democrats are on board with this outreach effort. In particular, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez of New York has made inflammatory statements that denigrate men and masculinity, and serve to polarize the debate:

During a CNN interview, AOC emphatically insisted that Republicans “are able to radicalize and target and exploit a generation of young boys, in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires a domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker or a different gender than them.” (4)

But AOC did not back up her impassioned claims with any survey findings, credible reports, or even a single anecdote. Her statements carried all the credibility of a make-believe fairytale.

In response, media commentators excoriated AOC for her claims:

Media star Megyn Kelly issued this riposte (5):

“Let’s be perfectly clear: There was, indeed, one party that radicalized today’s young men and it was yours, madam. It was yours who blamed them for literally everything just because they were born male. Your side demonized them at every turn and laughed when they ever dared to express any actual pain at the circumstances that they were forced into, through no fault of their own. It is absolutely disgusting for her to now say it is the Republican Party, which came to their rescue, that ‘radicalized them.’”

Writer Sadie_NC, who boasts 300,000 Twitter followers, explained (6):

“Masculinity isn’t ‘radical;’ its what built America, won wars, protected families, and the country from turning into a weak, crying mess. The left wants soft, confused, compliant boys. We want strong, responsible MEN. The hatred for actual manhood is actually insane. NO MORE ATTACKING MASCULINITY. Real men make America strong. Weak men make it fall. Bring back the real ones!”

And commentator Lisa Britton posted (7):

“Since the last election, many leaders in the Democratic Party have really stepped up their efforts to address the issues of boys, men and fathers….Yet, people like AOC are continuing to push the same messaging that encouraged men to move to the Right. If their rhetoric like this continues, I believe the Democrats will all lose again, big time.”

If Democratic leaders aspire to have a strong showing during the upcoming November elections, they need to tell AOC to refrain from making her divisive – some would say, hateful — comments about men and masculinity.

New Program Outlines Strategies to Reach Male Voters for Election Success

WASHINGTON / February 18, 2026 – Male voters have been described as the new “Power Demographic” (1). Accordingly, President Donald Trump achieved his election victory in November 2024 in large part as a result of the support of young men. Trump scored impressive gains among all four racial and ethnic groups, largely due to a wave of support from 18 to 29 year-old men.

Compared to the 2020 election, gains among male voters across four key demographics were documented (2):

Whites: 4-point gain
Blacks: 8-point gain
Latinos: 12-point gain
Asians: 6-point gain

Following the election, Democrat governors of California, Connecticut, Maryland, and Michigan established new programs (3), and, in January, the Republican governor of Utah convened a Men and Boys Well-being Symposium (4).

Other notable developments include:

Bills supportive of men’s issues have been recently introduced in Colorado, Virginia, and Washington State (5).
Men’s health is receiving greater attention, as the American Medical Association approved a resolution last November calling on states to establish offices of men’s health (6). On January 19, House Bill 341 was introduced to establish a Maryland Commission for Boys’ and Men’s Health (7).
A number of states have introduced shared parenting bills with a presumption of joint custody.

Now, candidates are planning for the November 2026 elections and developing strategies to attract the male electorate. In support of these efforts, SAVE has developed a how-to presentation titled, “How to Engage with the Male Voter to Assure Election Victory.”

The 22-slide PowerPoint presentation covers:

Why men represent the new “Power Demographic”
Lessons learned from the 2024 presidential election
Recommended strategies to secure election victory in 2026

The program is suitable for viewing by individual candidates or by teams of political activists. The program is available at no charge on the SAVE website (8).

Editorial Dishonesty at the Root of Washington Post’s Financial Woes

Editorial Dishonesty at the Root of Washington Post’s Financial Woes

WASHINGTON / February 10, 2026 – Last Wednesday the Washington Post announced its long-awaited decision to lay off more than 300 editors and reporters. The purge will eliminate the paper’s sports section, several foreign bureaus, and books coverage. The outlet lost an estimated $100 million in 2024, according to The Wall Street Journal (1).

Stop Abusive and Violent Environments (SAVE) views the move as self-inflicted, largely the result of staffers who glossed over scientific truth in favor of a politically acceptable version of events.

The US Centers for Disease Control reports that each year, there are more male victims than female victims of partner abuse (2):

6.5 million male victims
5.7 million female victims

But repeatedly, the Washington Post published accounts that ignored the research and proffered a one-sided version of the truth that ignored male victims. One editorial, authored by actress Amber Heard, later resulted in Heard’s agreement to pay $1 million to Johnny Depp for defamation (3).

Following is a listing of many of the untruthful articles that appeared in the Washington Post over the years(4):

May 10, 2013: “Conference Shines Light on Plight of Battered Mothers Seeking Custody.”
December 29, 2021: “The Pandemic Caused a Global Surge in Domestic Violence. For Victims with Few Options, Abuse has Become the New Normal.”
January 18, 2022: “Senators are Pushing to Reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act. Will it Help Indigenous Communities?”
February 17, 2022: “More than 1 in 4 Women Have Experienced Domestic Violence in Their Lifetimes, Global Study Finds.”
October 20, 2022: “Domestic Violence Victim Advocates on Case Uptick During Pandemic.”
January 3, 2023: “Climate Change Puts More Women at Risk for Domestic Violence.”

Leading researchers have repeatedly recognized the similar levels of male and female perpetrated domestic violence. California State University researcher Martin Fiebert reviewed 343 scholarly investigations in over 40 countries and concluded, “women are as physically aggressive as men (or more) in their relationships with their spouses or opposite-sex partners.” (5)

But to this day, even reputable organizations such as the World Health Organization publish reports that ignore the problem of female-perpetrated domestic violence (6).

Reporters need to take a balanced and science-based approach in covering the domestic violence issue.
