Women Are Some of the Strongest Supporters of Men’s Health

June 15, 2026 — June is Men’s Health Month, and it’s a time to reflect on a disturbing paradox: Even though men die five years sooner than women, the federal government currently has seven offices of women’s health, and zero offices of men’s health.

In Congress, lawmakers are debating passage of the State of Men’s Health Act, H.R. 7602, that would create the first federal Office of Men’s Health (1). And state lawmakers are reviewing the recent American Medical Association resolution calling on public health departments to establish offices of men’s health (2).

But conspicuously absent from the debate is how ending premature male mortality will also benefit women and wives. Research shows that widowhood imposes a heavy emotional, financial, and health toll on women:

1. Emotional and psychological trauma from bereavement: The sudden or early loss of a husband triggers intense grief, depression, loneliness, and anxiety. The Stanford Center on Longevity research highlights that women experience higher rates of sadness and psychological distress that can last for years (3).

2. Increased burdens of daily living: Widows often assume sole responsibility for household management, finances, and decision-making previously shared with a partner. This shift compounds their physical and cognitive loads (4).
3. Higher out-of-pocket medical expenditures: Bereavement often causes increased healthcare needs for the surviving spouse. Studies show increases in medical spending, as widows oversee their own health declines (5).
4. 22% decline in income: Widowhood substantially raises the likelihood of falling into poverty. The Social Security Administration reports that women frequently experience income drops (around 22% in early years) and wealth depletion, with many falling into poverty (6).
5. Three times greater risk of being admitted to a nursing home: Losing a spouse dramatically increases the risk of institutionalization. Finnish and U.S. studies document hazard ratios exceeding three in the first month after bereavement (7).
6. 48% greater mortality risk: Becoming widowed is associated with a 48% increase in mortality risk, according to Health and Retirement Study analyses. The loss of social support, shared resources, and companionship contributes to higher death rates among widows (8).

Evie Magazine columnist Lisa Britton reveals, “Our fathers, husbands, sons, and brothers continue to die earlier, suffer more, and receive far less institutional concern about their health than women.” (9)

Women should have a major say in debates about the establishment of the Office of Men’s Health. We encourage every woman to contact Assistant Secretary of Health Brian Christine, and urge him to take prompt action to establish an Office of Men’s Health:

The Myth of Patriarchy and the Media Fixation with Andrew Tate

June 18, 2026 — Vilified by the international media as the epitome of masculine power, Andrew Tate has been harshly criticized for his views of women (1). But Tate’s reputation as a “cultural influencer” of young men is now being challenged.

Early surveys found that Tate was viewed as a positive role model by only a minority of young men (2). And now, Tate’s limited influence is on the wane.

A 2025 study conducted in the UK found that teenagers described Tate as “dead” or “just a meme now.” (3) More recently, a survey of American men ages 19-29 found that Tate ranked dead last in his appeal to young men (4).

So how did the media become so fixated with Andrew Tate?

In 1970, feminist Kate Millett published Sexual Politics, which framed patriarchy as society’s most fundamental and pervasive concept of power. She claimed that “every avenue of power within the society, including the coercive force of the police, is entirely in male hands.”

But in singling out the “coercive force of the police,” Millett revealed her naiveté about the workings of the criminal system. Research from around the world shows when men and women commit the same crime, the man is more likely to be arrested, charged, and convicted (5). And the woman is let off with the proverbial “slap of the wrist.”

Now it’s time to ask the basic question, “Is there really such a thing as ‘patriarchy’ in Western societies?”

Scientific studies and government surveys reveal that around the world, men are lagging behind women in numerous ways (6):

• Lifespan and mental health: Men die approximately five years earlier than women worldwide.
• Education: Women now outpace men in college enrollments.
• Workplace safety: Men account for 92–95% of workplace fatalities in major industrial economies.
• Incarceration: Roughly 10.9 million men are imprisoned worldwide, while female prisoners number less than one million.
• Child labor: Boys make up the majority of children engaged in hazardous child labor.
• Homelessness: Men comprise an estimated 76% of the global homeless population.
• Media framing: A 2006 analysis found that 69% of news coverage of men was unfavorable.

If there really is such a thing as “patriarchy,” we must agree that the all-powerful patriarchs have done a rather poor job in their quest to advantage men.

Five-Year Life Expectancy Gap Faces Hostility and Neglect

June 8, 2026 — Men around the world die approximately five years earlier than women — a persistent human cost that receives far less attention than comparable disparities affecting other groups. This gap constitutes a profound public health and human rights failure that compromises the economic productivity of nations around the world (1).

Despite men’s significantly shorter lifespans, along with dramatically higher male suicide rates (typically 3–4 times those of women) and workplace deaths, health policy and cultural discourse remain heavily skewed. National and international initiatives overwhelmingly prioritize women’s health while male vulnerability is often minimized, pathologized, or ignored.

Radical feminist voices have contributed to this climate by framing men as a problem to be fixed or ignored. In her 1967 SCUM Manifesto, Valerie Solanas declared: “Retaining the male has not even the dubious purpose of reproduction.” Sally Miller Gearhart proposed in 1982 that “The proportion of men must be reduced to and maintained at approximately 10% of the human race.” In 1999, Mary Daly argued that planetary survival would require “a drastic reduction of the population of males.” (2)

These ideas echo in modern social media discussions. Following the 2024 U.S. election, TikTok creator melaninmaven97 welcomed the prospect of men “offing” or “deleting” themselves. Podcaster Brad Polumbo criticized the woman’s hateful remarks, concluding that TikTok has become a “dark and toxic place.” (3)

In discussions of male suicide on Instagram, comments such as “Rates not high enough” (over 6,800 likes) and “Please up the rates” (over 3,300 likes) have drawn significant approval. (4)

The phrase “Kill all men” appears regularly in the Femosphere, with estimates of low thousands to tens of thousands of Twitter posts in May 2026 alone — rhetoric that rarely triggers enforcement under X’s gender-neutral Hateful Conduct policy (5).

These cultural patterns give rise to striking policy imbalances:

• According to the World Health Organization’s 2023 SRMNCAH survey, 92% of responding countries maintain national strategies addressing women’s sexual, reproductive, maternal, and adolescent health (6). By comparison, only a small number of countries (such as Australia, Ireland, and Brazil) have developed dedicated national men’s health strategies (7).
• The United States maintains seven federal offices dedicated to women’s health — and zero for men’s health (8).

Andrzej Łobaczewski, the Polish psychiatrist who analyzed totalitarian psychology in Political Ponerology, warned how ideological systems can render the suffering of designated out-groups invisible (9). Certain strains of contemporary feminism have fostered a climate in which male suffering elicits indifference or even satisfaction from some voices.

A five-year life expectancy gap is not a minor statistical footnote — it is a human rights travesty affecting half the world’s population. Boys and men also face disadvantages in education, family courts, and mental health support.

June is Men’s Health Month. Policymakers and health organizations should promptly establish dedicated men’s health offices and strategies, enforce content policies on social media, and promote approaches that value the lives and well-being of men and women equally.

Jennifer Newsom Just Lost the Male Vote for Democrats

WASHINGTON / April 16, 2026 – For months, liberal operatives have been urging Democratic candidates to stop saying nasty things about male voters. In particular, Democratic strategist James Carville has been sharply critical of Democrats who indulge in “future is female” and #MeToo sloganeering (1).

And he seemed to be making progress…until last week.

That’s when a slew of media articles appeared that recounted over-the-top statements made by Jennifer Siebel Newsom, wife of California governor Gavin Newsom. Gavin Newsom is the leading Democratic candidate to run for president in 2028.

Below are some of Jennifer’s head-scratching statements about gender relations in America:

Professional Victim: Jennifer Newsom, who lives in a palatial $9 million estate, had no qualms in making the bizarre claim that, “The gender hierarchy is the oldest form of oppression. It’s the roots of oppression and it’s the template for all other oppression.” (2)

Female Chauvinist: “Every problem that we have in society right now will be fixed” when “more women are in the rooms making decisions, changing the status quo, and transforming not just our just culture but our society and our economy.” (3)

Patriarchy vs. Matriarchy: In her The Mask You Live In documentary, Newsom critiques “toxic masculinity” and “patriarchal” structures (4). But many persons dispute the notion that “patriarchal” structures exist, and argue the real concern is the emergence of powerful matriarchies, often referred to as the “Great Feminization.” (5)

Alt-Right Boogeyman: The California First Partner insists that boys are being influenced by an “alt-right socialization” that she believes are “very, very dangerous.” (6) Mrs. Newsom admitted that “I’ve given our boys dolls, even if they tear the head off.” The woman doesn’t seem to realize that decapitating dolls’ heads reveals the utter disgust of boys who are being coerced into incompatible gender roles.

NGO Profiteer: Jennifer Newsom runs the Representation Project, a charity that claims to be fighting “intersectional gender stereotypes.” According to a Daily Mail article, “The organization brings in between $1 million and $1.7 million a year in grants and donations, with roughly $300,000 of it going straight to her and her company in recent years, according to financial records.” (7)

Matt Walsh offered these cogent remarks about Jennifer Siebel Newsom:

“She’s the perfect feminist. Not only because she’s constantly out babbling about how men are evil, but also because her husband is trying to achieve something great (becoming president), and she is determined to put herself at the center of the story and absolutely destroy his dream in the process….A very instructive cautionary tale for young men. Never marry a feminist. She will ruin your life. Guaranteed.” (8)

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):

1. White House Council on Fathers and Sons Act, H.R. 7800
2. Dads Matter Act, H.R. 5828 and S. 2131
3. 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.

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.

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):

1. May 10, 2013: “Conference Shines Light on Plight of Battered Mothers Seeking Custody.”
2. December 29, 2021: “The Pandemic Caused a Global Surge in Domestic Violence. For Victims with Few Options, Abuse has Become the New Normal.”
3. January 18, 2022: “Senators are Pushing to Reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act. Will it Help Indigenous Communities?”
4. February 17, 2022: “More than 1 in 4 Women Have Experienced Domestic Violence in Their Lifetimes, Global Study Finds.”
5. October 20, 2022: “Domestic Violence Victim Advocates on Case Uptick During Pandemic.”
6. 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.
