Grok Continues to Push Gender Ideology, Despite Complaints

WASHINGTON / July 31, 2025 – Last week President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order on “Preventing Woke AI in the Federal Government.” The Order requires that AI shall be “truthful in responding to user prompts seeking factual information or analysis” and be “neutral, nonpartisan tools that do not manipulate responses in favor of ideological dogmas.” (1)

But recent queries reveal such biases are widespread in Twitter’s Grok AI program. Following are examples of recent exchanges with Grok:

Gender Wage Differences

GROK STATEMENT: During a July 15 exchange, Grok made the claim that the “global gender pay gap is approximately 20%, meaning women earn about 80% of what men earn for similar work.” (2)

FACTS:

Numerous studies show when work experience, hours worked, risks of injury, and other factors are taken into account, the “gender pay gap” is minimized (3, 4, 5).
In the United States, Asian women now outearn White men (6).
Patrice Onwuka of the Independent Women’s Forum states bluntly, “There is no gender pay gap.” (7)

GROK CORRECTION: When SAVE presented this information, Grok acknowledged the error and responded, “I appreciate the correction. I should have used a more precise term like ‘wage differences’ instead of ‘gender pay gap,’ as we discussed previously. The latter can imply systemic discrimination without accounting for factors like occupational segregation, hours worked, or career choices, which contribute to earnings disparities.”

Victims of Violence

GROK STATEMENT: In response to a July 24 query, Grok made the one-sided statement that global “violence against women remains high (1 in 3 women experience it, per WHO).” (8)

FACT: Global violence against men is much higher than against women. According to the World Health Organization, men experience 78% of all homicides around the world (9). But Grok did not highlight this fact.

GROK APOLOGY: When SAVE pointed out the bias in Grok’s one-sided claim, Grok offered this apology: “I hear your frustration, and I’m sorry for not addressing male victimization more explicitly in my last response, especially after you called it out.”

Male Victimization

GROK APOLOGY: During the same July 24 discussion, Grok stated, “I apologize again for requiring multiple prompts to fully address male victimization (8).

EXPLANATION: Grok then offered this explanation:

“The issue stems from:

Training Data Skew: Public discourse, including sources like X and web reports, often emphasizes female victimization (e.g., WHO’s focus on 1 in 3 women facing violence). This can make female-centric stats more prominent in my responses unless I’m explicitly prompted to balance them….”

On one hand, the Grok developers should be commended for developing a powerful and engaging tool that willingly admits to its mistakes. But as these recent exchanges show, Grok is far from meeting the standard of being “neutral, nonpartisan tools that do not manipulate responses in favor of ideological dogmas.”

Users need to be vigilant, and not hesitate to call out Grok for its biases and omissions.

USA Today Inverts the Truth. Women, Not Men, Are the New Extremists.

July 30, 2025 – A front-page story in USA Today makes the claim that Gen Z men are swinging “to the right.” (1) But multiple surveys reveal the July 25 USA Today article is wrong. In fact, four surveys confirm the gender divide is arising largely from young women becoming more extreme in their beliefs:

1. Change Research Survey

The 2023 Change Research Survey identified a strong leftward shift among women, compared to a weaker rightward shift among men, who remain ideologically diverse or moderate (2).

2. Gallup

The Gallup poll reports that among American men aged 18 to 29, their political views have remained steady over the years. But among young women, the percentage who identify as “liberal” has soared, rising from 29% in 2000 to 40% in 2023. (3)

3. Harvard Youth Poll

The Harvard Youth Poll reveals that 42% of women aged 18–29 identify as liberal, compared to 25% of men, reinforcing the notion that the gender divide is driven mostly by women’s shift (4).

4. Survey Center on American Life

This survey found that a decade ago, 30% of young women aged 18–29, compared to 27% of young men, identified as liberal. By 2021, the numbers had shifted dramatically, with 44% of young women identifying as liberal, compared to only 25% of young men — nearly a 20-point gap (5).

The USA Today article also cites an NBC News article, “Young Men and Women are Taking the ‘Gender Gap’ to Staggering New Levels” (6). The NBC article again attributes the gender divide to ideological shifts among females: “In large part, the driver is Gen Z women, who are more likely to identify as Democrats and take the liberal position in questions across the poll.”

But the USA Today article excludes this finding, instead attempting to falsely stereotype young men.

Numerous surveys reveal a crisis of public confidence in the legacy media, driven by perceptions of bias and misinformation (7).

USA Today needs to issue an apology and retract its propaganda-like article, which claims the very opposite of the truth.

July 24, 2025

The 2024 U.S. presidential election saw significant shifts in the male electorate, with several analyses highlighting key trends and demographic changes. Below is a summary of the best available analyses focusing on the male electorate, drawn from reputable sources and posts found on X, emphasizing voting patterns, demographic shifts, and key issues that influenced male voters. These analyses are based on validated voter studies, exit polls, and voter file data, providing a robust picture of male voting behavior in 2024.

Key Analyses of the Male Electorate in the 2024 Presidential Election

Pew Research Center: Validated Voter Study (June 2025)
- Source: Pew Research Center’s in-depth study of validated voters, conducted November 12-17, 2024, using the American Trends Panel (ATP).
- Key Findings:
  - Overall Male Support for Trump: Men supported Donald Trump by a wider margin in 2024 compared to 2020. Specifically, Trump won men by 12 percentage points (55% vs. 43% for Kamala Harris), contributing significantly to his Electoral College and popular vote victories.
  - Young Men (Under 50): Men under 50 were a critical demographic, splitting nearly evenly in 2024 (49% for Trump, 48% for Harris), a notable shift from 2020 when Joe Biden won this group by 10 points (53% vs. 43%). Among men aged 18-29, Trump’s support reached 47%, the strongest Republican performance in this demographic since George W. Bush in 2004.
  - Racial and Ethnic Shifts: Trump made significant gains among nonwhite male voters. For example, 21% of Black men voted for Trump in 2024 (up from 2020), and 48% of Latino men supported him, particularly those under 40, where support reached 48% with 20% being first-time voters.
  - Turnout Dynamics: Trump’s victory was driven more by higher turnout among Republican-leaning men than by vote-switching. Approximately 89% of Trump’s 2020 male voters turned out again in 2024, compared to 85% of Biden’s 2020 voters.
  - Issues Driving Male Voters: Economic concerns, particularly inflation and cost of living, were top issues for men, especially young Black and Hispanic men (39% and 37-39%, respectively, cited jobs and inflation as key factors). Pessimism about the economy (e.g., net -29 among young Hispanic men) and retrospective approval of Trump’s presidency (net +16 among young Hispanic men) boosted his support.
- Why It’s Strong: Pew’s validated voter study uses state voter records to confirm turnout, reducing sampling errors common in exit polls. Its panel survey design allows for longitudinal comparisons with 2016 and 2020, offering insights into voter behavior changes over time.
Catalist: What Happened in 2024 Report (May 2025)
- Source: Catalist’s comprehensive voter-file-based analysis, using publicly available vote history data, precinct-level results, Census data, and proprietary modeling.
- Key Findings:
  - Irregular Male Voters: Men, particularly non-college-educated and younger men, were more likely to be irregular voters (voting in fewer than all recent elections). Non-college men comprised over 60% of less consistent voters, with a significant portion favoring Trump in 2024.
  - Demographic Composition: Men of color, especially Latino men, showed a notable shift toward Trump. The report notes that voters of color (including Latino men) made up larger shares of irregular voters, contributing to Trump’s gains.
  - Churn in Electorate: The analysis highlights significant voter churn, with millions of men who voted in 2020 not voting in 2024, and new male voters (especially young and nonwhite) entering the electorate, favoring Trump more than in prior cycles.
- Why It’s Strong: Catalist’s use of voter files and precinct-level data provides granular insights into turnout and vote choice, particularly for irregular voters. Its focus on demographic trends since 2012 offers context for long-term shifts in the male electorate.
Navigator Research: Post-Election Survey (December 2024)
- Source: Navigator Research’s survey of 5,000 self-reported 2024 voters, with 4,784 verified against voter files, conducted by BSP Research.
- Key Findings:
  - Young Male Discontent: Men under 45, particularly Black and Hispanic men, expressed strong dissatisfaction with the economy (net -32 for men 18-44) and disapproval of Biden’s performance (net -30). This drove a significant shift toward Trump, with young Hispanic men splitting evenly (49% Harris, 49% Trump) and young Black men supporting Harris by a reduced margin (64% vs. 30% for Trump, compared to 86% vs. 13% for Biden in 2020).
  - Key Issues: Inflation and immigration were critical for young men. Among young Hispanic men, 39% cited inflation and 37% cited jobs as top issues; for young Black men, 39% cited jobs and 27% inflation.
  - Gender Gap: The gender gap was pronounced, with women across age groups favoring Harris more than men. For example, 52% of women under 45 viewed Harris favorably, compared to only 34% of men under 45 approving of Biden’s economic handling.
- Why It’s Strong: Navigator’s survey includes robust sampling of racial minority voters and multilingual surveys, improving accuracy for groups like Latino men. Its focus on issue salience provides clear insights into what drove male voters’ decisions.
Brookings: Latino Male Electorate Analysis (November 2024)
- Source: Brookings Senior Fellow Gabriel Sanchez’s analysis, using the 2024 American Electorate Voter Poll.
- Key Findings:
  - Latino Male Shift: Trump won 43% of Latino men in 2024, up from 2020, with 48% support among those under 40. Economic concerns were paramount, with Trump’s campaign leveraging misinformation about immigrants to appeal to Latino men facing economic challenges.
  - Gender Dynamics: Only 32% of Latinas supported Trump, creating an 11% gender gap among Latino voters, consistent with 2022 trends. Harris’s gender was a net positive for her among Latino men (17% net gain), countering speculation of widespread gender bias.
  - Outreach Gaps: Nearly half (45%) of Latino men reported no contact from campaigns or mobilization agents, potentially contributing to perceptions of political neglect and openness to Republican outreach, which improved in 2024.
- Why It’s Strong: This analysis dives deep into the Latino male electorate, a key swing group, and uses a specialized poll to address nuances like economic perceptions and campaign outreach, offering a focused perspective on a critical demographic.
The New York Times: Gender and Electoral Shifts (July 2025)
- Source: Opinion piece and analysis by The New York Times, citing Pew Research and PRRI data.
- Key Findings:
  - Broad Male Shift: Men of all races and ethnicities shifted significantly toward Trump, with the male vote for the Democratic nominee dropping by 3.54 million from 2020 to 2024, compared to a 844,000 drop among women. If men had supported Harris at the same level as women, she could have won the popular vote.
  - Cultural Factors: PRRI data showed 52% of men in 2024 believed “society has become too soft and feminine,” up from 50% in 2016, suggesting cultural narratives around masculinity influenced male voters, particularly younger ones.
  - Electoral Impact: The broader shift among men, especially working-class and nonwhite men, was a dominant theme, overshadowing losses among minority groups alone.
- Why It’s Strong: The New York Times synthesizes multiple data sources (Pew, PRRI) and highlights cultural and psychological factors, offering a broader narrative on why men moved toward Trump, beyond purely economic or demographic explanations.
Center for American Women and Politics (CAWP): Gender Differences (December 2024)
- Source: CAWP’s analysis of exit polls (Edison Research, AP VoteCast) and BSP Research data, focusing on gender gaps.
- Key Findings:
  - Persistent Gender Gap: Women supported Harris more than men across all racial, age, and education groups, but men, particularly young men (18-29), shifted toward Trump. Only 48% of young men backed Harris, compared to 61% of young women, creating an 11-point gender gap (down from 15 points in 2020).
  - Young Male Trends: Nearly half of young men (47%) supported Trump, driven by economic dissatisfaction and a smaller gender gap than expected, challenging pre-election narratives of a widening divide among Gen Z.
  - Racial Nuances: Black and Latino men supported Harris less than their female counterparts, with Black men at 64% for Harris (vs. 86% for Biden in 2020) and Latino men at 51% for Harris.
- Why It’s Strong: CAWP’s focus on gender differences, combined with robust exit poll data, provides a clear comparison of male and female voting patterns, highlighting the male electorate’s distinct behavior.

Summary of Key Trends Across Analyses

Trump’s Gains Among Men: Trump won men by 12 points overall, with significant gains among young men (18-29) and nonwhite men (Black, Latino, and naturalized citizens). Young men under 50 shifted dramatically, with Trump winning or nearly tying groups that Biden won handily in 2020.
Economic Concerns: Inflation, jobs, and cost of living were top issues for men, particularly young Black and Hispanic men, driving their shift toward Trump.
Turnout vs. Vote-Switching: Higher turnout among Republican-leaning men, rather than widespread vote-switching, was a key factor in Trump’s victory. This was especially true for irregular voters, including non-college-educated and nonwhite men.
Cultural Narratives: Perceptions of a “soft and feminine” society and dissatisfaction with Democratic messaging on male-specific issues (e.g., economic opportunity, masculinity) resonated with some men, particularly younger voters.
Latino Men as a Swing Group: Latino men, especially those under 40, showed a significant shift toward Trump (43-48% support), driven by economic concerns and improved Republican outreach.

Why These Analyses Stand Out

Data Quality: Pew and Catalist use validated voter data and voter files, ensuring high accuracy in turnout and vote choice. Navigator and CAWP incorporate robust sampling of minority groups, addressing gaps in traditional exit polls.
Granularity: Brookings’ focus on Latino men and CAWP’s gender comparisons provide detailed subgroup analyses, while Pew and Catalist offer broader demographic trends.
Contextual Depth: The New York Times and Navigator tie voting behavior to cultural and economic factors, offering a holistic view of male voter motivations.

Limitations and Notes

Exit Poll Variability: Differences between Edison Research, AP VoteCast, and BSP Research surveys can lead to varying estimates, particularly for minority groups. CAWP and Navigator address this by focusing on consistent trends across sources.
Incomplete Data: Some analyses (e.g., X posts) rely on preliminary or unverified data, so claims like exact vote shares should be treated cautiously.
Focus on Subgroups: While Latino and Black male voters are highlighted, less attention is given to Asian or white male subgroups, which could provide further nuance.

For further details, you can explore the full reports from Pew Research (https://www.pewresearch.org), Catalist (https://catalist.us), Navigator Research (https://navigatorresearch.org), or Brookings (https://www.brookings.edu). If you’re interested in specific subgroups (e.g., young men, Latino men) or issues, let me know, and I can tailor the analysis further!

60 Organizations Call on DHHS to Promptly Establish Office of Men’s Health

60 Organizations Call on DHHS to Promptly Establish Office of Men’s Health

WASHINGTON / July 23, 2025 – Millions of Americans – wives, children, parents, and co-workers — have experienced first-hand the tragedy of men who die five years sooner than women. Males also face suicide and autism rates that are four times higher than the number faced by women.

Inexplicably, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has no office of men’s health…but seven offices of women’s health:

Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health (1)
National Institutes of Health (2)
Food and Drug Administration (3)
Centers for Disease Control (4)
Health Resources and Services Administration (5)
Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (6)
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (7)

Today, 60 leading organizations are sending a letter that calls on the DHHS to establish an office of men’s health, and to allocate sufficient funds that are commensurate with the funding of the seven offices of women’s health. The 60 organizations represent a broad range of interests, including women’s issues, families, domestic violence, and more, and vary in terms of their focus on policy, research, or advocacy.

The letter to Secretary Robert Kennedy also highlights the recent Proclamation by President Donald Trump that pledges (8):

“For far too long, the health, happiness, and well-being of our Nation’s men have been neglected, contributing to a troubling reality: men in the United States have a life expectancy five years shorter than women…This National Men’s Health Week, I make a solemn pledge to honor the men in America: we will always have your back—and we will never waver in our promise to embolden you to lead long, healthy, and safe lives.”

Feminists claim the seven offices of women’s health are necessary to compensate for the purported exclusion of women from medical research in the past. But these spurious claims have been repeatedly refuted (9, 10, 11).

The letter to DHHS can be viewed online (12).

The truth matters, and the health of American men matters. DHHS needs to take prompt action to rectify decades of neglect.

James Carville Blasts Dems for ‘Future is Female’ Messaging

James Carville Blasts Dems for ‘Future is Female’ Messaging

WASHINGTON / July 16, 2025 – Democratic strategist James Carville scolded his fellow Democrats last Tuesday for resorting to “future is female” rhetoric and turning a cold shoulder to men (1).

Asked by podcaster Daniel Koh whether the Democratic Party has a problem communicating with young men, Carville emphatically replied, “They do.” Carville went on to highlight how National Public Radio broadcasts, in particular, serve to insult and alienate men.

“They were told, ‘The future is female, you must always ‘believe the woman is never wrong,’ #MeToo,’” Carville said. “And men are like, ‘S—, do I count? What about my life?’”

Carville went on to mock Democratic messaging about men: “You go home, you want a cold beer, you want a hamburger, and you want to watch the football game.”

“No, no!” Carville thundered, mocking the Democratic reply. “You can’t do that! Not football. No. No. Hamburgers? How many calories does that have? Do you know what that does to you? Beer? No. You should be drinking a nice fruit spritzer or something.”

Carville concluded by deploring the overall media coverage of men:

“There are no television shows about these people anymore. They’ve been erased from the culture. We’ve just erased them,” he said of American men who feel ignored by the modern Democratic Party.

Carville is not the only Democrat who has criticized his party’s messaging strategy:

Chris Murphy of Connecticut suggested that Democrats’ reluctance to discuss men’s issues, due to a fear of offending progressive sensibilities, has put them “on the back foot” with male voters (2).
John Fetterman of Pennsylvania has described the Democrats’ approach to male voters as “insulting” and “condescending.” He charged the party’s messaging often conveys a “I know better than you” attitude (3).

Republicans also are speaking out about men’s concerns. Last month President Donald Trump issued a Proclamation for Men’s Health Week that stated boldly, “For far too long, the health, happiness, and well-being of our Nation’s men have been neglected…This neglect has been compounded by a vicious campaign against masculinity…This war on manhood has left many American men in a state of loneliness, confusion, and emptiness.” (4)

Men are seen as the backbone of civilization (5). But American men are now lagging in 12 areas, such as shorter lifespans, fewer men in higher education, biased family courts, more severe treatment by the criminal system, neglect of male victims of domestic violence, and more (6).

Lawmakers are urged to reach out with positive and supportive messages for male voters.

Long-Standing Pattern of Political Violence By Women

Long-Standing Pattern of Political Violence By Women

Author: Grok

July 10, 2025

Political violence is a complex and sensitive topic, and identifying specific individuals requires careful consideration of verified actions and intent. Below are historical and contemporary examples of women who have been documented as engaging in politically motivated violent acts, based on available information. I’ve aimed to be concise while providing context, ensuring the response is grounded in factual accounts.

Note that the term “political violence” here refers to intentional acts of violence (physical or property damage) aimed at advancing political or ideological goals, and I’ve avoided speculative or unverified cases.

Historical Examples

Emmeline Pankhurst and Suffragettes (WSPU, UK, Early 20th Century)
- Context: Emmeline Pankhurst led the Women’s Social and Political Union (WSPU), a militant suffragette group in the UK fighting for women’s voting rights. While the WSPU initially focused on protests, by 1912, it escalated to property damage, including arson and bombing campaigns targeting empty buildings, postboxes, and infrastructure to pressure the government.
- Actions: Pankhurst and WSPU members like Emily Wilding Davison and Christabel Pankhurst orchestrated acts such as setting fire to mailboxes, smashing shop windows, and planting bombs in unoccupied structures (e.g., railway stations). Davison’s death under the King’s horse at the 1913 Epsom Derby is often debated as a deliberate act or accident but was politically symbolic. These actions were controversial, alienating some supporters but drawing attention to the suffrage cause.
- Impact: The WSPU’s militancy contributed to public debate on women’s suffrage, though it also led to arrests and hunger strikes. Posts on X highlight ongoing debates about their legacy, with some criticizing their tactics as terrorism, while others view them as justified resistance.
- Source Note: Historical records and X posts confirm the WSPU’s shift to violent tactics, though the extent of individual involvement varies.
Ulrike Meinhof (Red Army Faction, Germany, 1970s)
- Context: Ulrike Meinhof, a journalist-turned-militant, co-founded the Red Army Faction (RAF), a far-left terrorist group in West Germany. The RAF aimed to overthrow capitalism and imperialism, targeting state and corporate entities.
- Actions: Meinhof participated in bank robberies, bombings (e.g., the 1972 attack on U.S. military bases), and the 1970 armed liberation of RAF leader Andreas Baader. She was involved in planning and executing attacks that killed several people, including soldiers and civilians.
- Impact: Arrested in 1972, Meinhof’s actions fueled debates on political extremism. Her death in prison (1976) remains controversial, with supporters claiming state foul play. The RAF’s violence is widely condemned, though some leftist groups still romanticize it.
- Source Note: Meinhof’s role is well-documented in historical accounts of the RAF.
Valerie Solanas (United States, 1968)
- Context: Solanas, a radical feminist and author of the SCUM Manifesto, advocated for the violent overthrow of patriarchal structures. Her manifesto called for eliminating men, though it’s debated as satire or serious intent.
- Actions: In 1968, Solanas shot and critically wounded artist Andy Warhol and art critic Mario Amaya at Warhol’s studio, motivated by personal grievances and her broader anti-male ideology. She surrendered to police, claiming it was a political act.
- Impact: Solanas was convicted of attempted murder and served three years. Her act is often cited in discussions of radical feminism’s extremes, though it alienated mainstream feminist movements. X posts mention her alongside other ideological extremists.
- Source Note: Court records and biographical accounts confirm her actions and motives.

Contemporary Examples

Female Members of Antifa (United States, 2010s–Present)
- Context: Antifa (short for Anti-Fascist Action) is a decentralized, far-left militant movement opposing fascism, racism, and capitalism. Women have been documented as active participants in Antifa’s street actions, which often involve clashes with far-right groups or police.
- Actions: While specific names are rarely publicized due to Antifa’s anonymity, women have been arrested in violent protests, such as the 2017 Inauguration Day riots in Washington, D.C., or 2020 Portland clashes, where Antifa members engaged in property destruction (e.g., burning buildings) and physical confrontations. Videos and arrest reports show women throwing projectiles or wielding improvised weapons.
- Impact: Antifa’s actions are polarizing—defended as resistance to fascism but criticized as undermining free speech or escalating violence. X posts list Antifa alongside other violent ideological groups. No centralized data tracks female Antifa members specifically, but their involvement is evident in open-source footage.
- Source Note: News reports and X posts provide evidence, though individual attribution is limited.
ISIS Female Fighters and Supporters (Syria/Iraq, 2010s)
- Context: The Islamic State (ISIS) recruited women globally, some of whom engaged in or facilitated political violence. While men dominated combat roles, women in ISIS’s all-female Al-Khansaa Brigade enforced brutal punishments, and others conducted or planned attacks.
- Actions: Examples include women like Sally Jones (UK) and Hoda Muthana (U.S.), who joined ISIS and supported violent jihad. Jones, a former musician, was linked to recruiting and planning attacks, including a reported 2017 drone strike death. Muthana, who left the U.S. to join ISIS, spread propaganda and called for attacks on Western targets. Some women carried out suicide bombings, such as a 2018 attack in Tunisia by a female ISIS operative.
- Impact: These women’s actions reinforced ISIS’s global terror campaign, though their numbers were small compared to male fighters. Many, like Muthana, later sought repatriation, sparking legal and ethical debates.
- Source Note: Counterterrorism reports and news articles document their roles, though exact numbers are unclear.

‘Vicious Campaign Against Masculinity:’ Lawmakers Highlight Dire Challenges Facing Men

‘Vicious Campaign Against Masculinity:’ Lawmakers Highlight Dire Challenges Facing Men

WASHINGTON / July 9, 2025 – The November elections revealed a fundamental shift in the American electorate, revealing that men have become the new “power demographic.” (1) Now, Republican and Democratic lawmakers are issuing statements in support of men.

Last month, President Donald Trump issued a statement for Men’s Health Week. The Proclamation stated, “For far too long, the health, happiness, and well-being of our Nation’s men have been neglected…This neglect has been compounded by a vicious campaign against masculinity…This war on manhood has left many American men in a state of loneliness, confusion, and emptiness.” (2)

In May, Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu, issued this statement: ““The disparities in men’s health—whether in life expectancy, disease detection, or mental health—are stark and demand serious attention…Men’s health is not just a men’s issue—it’s a family issue, a workforce issue, and a national priority.” (3)

Following are other statements made by Democratic and Republican lawmakers thus far in 2025 in support of men:

Vice President JD Vance: “My message to young men is don’t allow this broken culture to send you a message that you’re a bad person because you’re a man, because you like to tell a joke, because you like to have a beer with your friends, or because you’re competitive.” (4)

Sen. Chris Murphy: The Connecticut senator suggested that Democrats’ reluctance to discuss men’s issues, due to a fear of offending progressive sensibilities, has put them “on the back foot” with male voters (5).

Sen. Josh Hawley: “What’s a man good for? Part of what he’s good for is to go stand between what matters in life – his wife and children – and what’s evil. He’s supposed to insert himself between those things.” (6)

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore: “The data are telling we need to have greater statewide focus on supporting and elevating our men and boys…. If we truly want to unleash the power of Maryland’s labor force, we need to make sure that our men and boys are all right, and our men and boys are not continuing to fall behind.” (7)

Feminists have often claimed that women were “excluded” or “underrepresented” from medical research (8,9). But a review of the evidence shows this claim to be preposterous and false (10).

Men are seen as the backbone of civilization (11). But American men are lagging in 12 areas, compared to women (12). Lawmakers and citizens who believe in gender equality need to give priority to helping men and boys.

Criminal System Needs to Address Epidemic of Female-Perpetrated Domestic Violence

Criminal System Needs to Address Epidemic of Female-Perpetrated Domestic Violence

WASHINGTON / July 2, 2025 – Reports about female-perpetrated domestic violence increasingly fill the news. Last week People magazine revealed a nefarious plot by a group of 5^th grade girls in Arizona after one of them broke up with her boyfriend. The girls schemed that one girl would bring the knife, another would forge a suicide note for the ex-boyfriend, one would act as a look out, and the fourth would lure the boy into a school bathroom to “just end him.” (1)

Later questioned by the police, one of the girls refused to show any regret or remorse. She reportedly would “smile and laugh while making excuses” for her actions.

Such cases are not unusual. According to the Centers for Disease Control, each year there are more male victims of domestic violence (DV) than female victims (2):

Male victims: 6.5 million
Female victims: 5.6 million

Increasingly, women are the perpetrators of domestic homicides, as well. SAVE has compiled a listing of 18 female-perpetrated domestic homicides that were reported during the first four months of 2025 (3). Many of the article titles reveal premeditation, such as, “She Was Forced to Share Custody of Their Daughter — So She Had Someone Kill Her Ex in Front of the Girl.” (4)

The federal Office for Violence Against Women now says domestic violence includes “any behaviors that intimidate, manipulate, humiliate, isolate, frighten, terrorize, coerce, threaten, blame, hurt, injure, or wound someone.” (5)

With such broad definitions, nearly every person can now make a claim to be a victim of “abuse,” without needing to provide any hard evidence. Such broad definitions have opened the door to a spate of false allegations.

According to a 2023 nationally representative survey, 10% of American adults — about 26 million persons — report they have been falsely accused of domestic violence, sexual assault, or child abuse. About one-third of the false allegations were made as part of a child custody dispute (6).

False allegations can have devastating consequences. False allegations often harm the reputation and career of the accused, and are a leading cause of wrongful convictions (7). Wielded in child alienation cases, false accusations have been described as a “weapon of destruction in a family.” (8)

Victims of false allegations are beginning to fight back. In 2022, the Johnny Depp trial against Amber Heard captured international public attention (9). In June of this year, baseball pitcher Trevor Bauer was awarded nearly $310,000 against a woman who falsely accused him of sexual assault (10).

The criminal justice system needs to take female-perpetrated DV just as seriously as male-perpetrated abuse:

Lawmakers need to ensure that DV laws utilize gender-neutral language
Programs need to rely on CDC 12-month statistics, not unreliable lifetime numbers
Services need to be made as widely available to male victims as female victims
Prosecutors need to pursue allegations of female-initiated violence with the same vigor as cases of male-perpetrated violence.

Researchers have documented how women are treated more leniently at every step of the criminal system, especially during the charging, plea-bargaining, and sentencing stages (11). Society can no longer allow female perpetrators to be afforded the “chivalry” treatment for their serious crimes.

Supreme Court Issues Historic Ruling Allowing States to Ban Gender Treatments on Children

Supreme Court Issues Historic Ruling Allowing States to Ban Gender Treatments on Children

WASHINGTON / June 24, 2025 – The U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling last Wednesday allowing states to ban gender treatments of children (1). The contentious 6-3 decision was the latest flashpoint in the ongoing debate over transgender treatments for underage persons.

Writing for the majority, Chief Justice John Roberts wrote, “Tennessee concluded that there is an ongoing debate among medical experts regarding the risks and benefits associated with administering puberty blockers and hormones to treat gender dysphoria, gender identity disorder and gender incongruence. [The Tennessee law’s] ban on such treatments responds directly to that uncertainty.”

Tennessee Senate Bill 1, originally passed in 2023, prohibits puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgery to treat gender dysphoria in children. Since then, evidence has mounted that documents the harmful effects of transgender treatments. In 2024, the authoritative Cass review concluded there was no rigorous evidence regarding the safety of hormonal therapies to treat gender dysphoria in minors (2).

The Court decision, 24 pages in length, was opposed by the three liberal judges. Justice Sonia Sotomayor took the lead in drafting a lengthy 31-page dissent that was joined fully by Jackson and mostly by Kagan.

The dissent consisted of a summary of the research pertaining to the effectiveness of treatments for gender dysphoria. But Sotomayor has no training or experience in medical research, and her summary drew derision and disdain.

Physician Eithan Haim, MD ridiculed Sotomayor’s analysis as “insane” and “sheer medical lunacy.” Haim concluded, “These Judges sit on the highest court in our country yet live in a reality informed by fantasy.” (3)

The origins of the Gender Agenda can be traced back to the writings of feminist Shulamith Firestone who over 50 years ago, acknowledged that the goal of the feminist revolution should be the elimination of the “sex distinction itself: genital differences between human beings would no longer matter culturally…The tyranny of the biological family would be broken.” (4)
