Listen to this speech by #GavinNewsom, a leading voice on helping struggling #men and #boys. Other states should follow his lead www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIbz...

75% of all homeless are male. 2/3 of our shelters for homeless are for women and children. There are almost no DV shelters for men and when men ask for DV grants to leave abusers they are laughed out of court. I know. I was. We need to build more homeless and DV shelters for men in all cities.
75% of all suicides are male. Boys kill themselves at 5x the rate of girls. Men 4x the rate of women. Yet we don't talk about it. The MSM never covers it. Its past time we spent more resources on preventing #MaleSuicide.
83% of parents with custody of their kids are women/mothers. Only 17% of fathers have custody of their children. 2/3 of all estranged parents seriously consider suicide. That means #ParentAlienation is driving up male suicides. Its also child abuse and puts the kid at risk of mental health issues.
We need fair #FamilyCourts that don't require dads, especially disabled ones like myself, to pay thousands of dollars and file in whatever county the mother flees to just to see their children and be a part of their life. They charge us child support but take our kids. Thats wrong. Very wrong.
Boys are 9x more likely to drop out of high school and half as likely as women to graduate college. We have an education gap between men and women and we need more programs to help young boys and men in school. We have done this for women in the past. We must now do it for our boys and men.
92% of our adult prisoners are male. 88% of our locked up kids. Men are convicted 3x as often and spend 3x as long in prison/jail as women do for the same crimes according to BOP. This means that society is just harder on men and we need to knock it off. We should all be equal under the law.
There is a serious lack of empathy and compassion for men and boys who are abused especially sexually abused. 1 in 6 boys will be molested or raped by 18. Compare that to 1 in 4 girls. Its not that big of a gap yet we don't talk about or seem to care when boys or young men are abused.
All of these inequalities and factors are why men are committing suicide in record numbers and have been for many years. The victim blaming and shaming from radical feminsts isn't helpful either. Blaming everything on "toxic masculinity" won't help young men heal or become better people.
Instead we should hold those that abuse boys and men accountable, hold men and boys to the same standards we hold women and girls under the law, give them 50/50 custody at birth over their kids unless there is a criminal record to prove they are a danger, and listen when men have concerns.
Furthermore 75% of your therapists and 75% of your teachers are women. When you add that 82% of parents with custody are mothers you see that young boys don't really have good male role models to look up to or speak to. This is why they don't feel understood. We need more males in those roles.
If you can't get behind supporting men and boys then you shouldn't expect men and boys to support you, vote for you, or care about the inequalities and struggles you face. What goes around comes around. I would implore you to change course and care about everyone not just your own gender.
In closing men, start supporting fellow men and boys. You can still support women but your brothers need you now more than ever. Learn to support each other like women have learned to support each other. Build each other up. Protect each other. Speak out about your needs and their needs.
