'In a remarkable article published October 29, 2026, in The Lancet, one of the world’s most prestigious medical journals, authors Sarah Hawkes and Kent Buse make this extraordinary claim:

“The manosphere, a diffuse commercial ecosystem and loose collection of online communities united by shared beliefs about masculinity, misogyny, and male victimisation, is an under-recognised determinant of health harms.”

Think about that. The manosphere is now being described as a public-health harm. Not just a collection of websites where men talk about their problems, but something that supposedly damages people’s health. And as we will see, the authors make this claim while admitting that they have very little solid evidence that the manosphere actually causes these harms.'

'A Massachusetts jury awarded former MIT biologist Dr. David Sabatini a $6 million defamation victory over sexual misconduct claims, setting the stage for cross-appeals as both legal teams prepare to take the case to a higher court.

Dr. Kristin Knouse, the former colleague whose sexual misconduct allegations dismantled Sabatini's American academic career, is challenging the October verdict. Her decision triggered a battle over legal consequences surrounding workplace misconduct claims and the authority of campus tribunals.

Knouse’s attorney, Ellen Zucker, believes that the $6 million verdict could potentially stop female scientists from reporting misconduct, claiming the jury's decision reflects a society that refuses to believe women who challenge powerful men.

'Half that institution’s natural customer base had quietly stopped turning up, over about fifteen years. Nobody went looking for them. Nobody asked why. Nobody appears to have treated it as a problem at all.

In the early 1970s men were the clear majority of students on American campuses. Today they’re around 42%, and women are close to 60%. When the enrolment decline was broken down, men accounted for the overwhelming bulk of it — not a share, the majority of the entire national drop.

That isn’t demographic drift. Demographics don’t selectively remove one half of a population. That’s a boycott, conducted without a single meeting, by several million people who never discussed it once.'

'Stuart Brazell had already given birth to two boys when she convinced her husband to try for a third baby — certain that this time she’d finally have the daughter she’d always dreamed of.

Brazell envisioned the little girl so vividly that during sound baths, she imagined them running together through a lavender field.

But when she learned she was expecting another son, the Los Angeles mom was devastated.

“I just sobbed and sobbed and sobbed,” Brazell recalled.

Once considered the coveted family heir and the one to carry the family name, baby boys are getting a decidedly less warm reception in some corners of modern parenthood.

Amid fraught conversations about masculinity, gender roles and the challenges of raising sons, research suggests the age-old preference for boys may be losing its grip.

'The manosphere and online misogyny should be treated as a public health issue by the government, in the same way as smoking and ultra-processed foods, a new report says.

Authors of a paper in The Lancet argue that misogynistic influencers are a public health threat, driving rising mental distress, violence against women and girls and male isolation. The solution, the experts say, is for governments, schools, health services and social media companies to work together to address the harms they cause.

“Progress on women’s rights is facing substantial obstacles in many settings,” the paper says. “In the current era of democratic backsliding, along with a coordinated rise in anti-gender and anti-rights movements and deliberate obstruction of the implementation of gender equality policies in a quarter of countries worldwide, misogynistic prejudices are widespread: almost nine in 10 people hold at least one fundamental bias against women.”

'The Supreme Court (SC) has ruled that men can also be victims of sexual violence, underscoring that the law must protect all victims of abuse regardless of gender.

In a 17-page decision, the SC En Banc affirmed that while women have historically suffered sexual violence by men, the law must be adaptable to also recognize that men can also be victims of perpetrators.'

'Over the past fifty years, boys and young men have steadily disengaged from school, work, and broader society. They’re falling behind academically, struggling with loneliness and isolation, and facing rising rates of substance abuse and suicide.

This 45-minute documentary draws on the influential work of Richard V. Reeves’ “Of Boys and Men”, illuminating these challenges through powerful data and compelling personal stories. Many of us have experienced these issues first-hand, but it can be difficult to talk about them. It’s not an either-or choice: caring more about boys and men does not mean caring less about women and girls.

Set in rural Vermont, the film brings national data to life with engaging animation accompanying lived experience featuring young men, educators, mentors, and trailblazing programs that are working to re-engage boys and young men in their communities and reshape their futures.'

'Like many other people, I was enthralled by the new movie You Can See Everything. I found it stunningly original, and the three hours never dragged for me. (Before we go any further, there are no spoilers in this review, at least assuming you already know who Elizabeth Holmes is.)

But while watching it, I had a recurring thought: Holmes should not be in prison. To be clear, I do not doubt the jury’s findings of guilt. Nor am I trying to argue she was a naïf, trapped into crime by a cruel and hostile world.

What I did observe in the film, and knew about already, is that she has two small children. Furthermore, although her offenses were egregious—creating and marketing Theranos, a fraudulent blood-testing company—Holmes did not commit nor threaten any violence. The main charges that held up in court were wire fraud and conspiracy to commit fraud, or in more commonsense terms, defrauding her investors of hundreds of millions of dollars.'

'The Male Exodus has already hit Japan. Is America next?

Japan's declining birth rates, rising numbers of single men, empty schools, and struggling universities may be a warning of what's coming to the United States.

Between 2002 and 2020, Japan closed approximately 450 public schools per year. Today, nearly 60% of Japanese private universities struggle to fill their freshman enrollment quotas. Meanwhile, the United States faces its own demographic crisis: declining birth rates, a growing gender gap in higher education, and the college enrollment cliff.

What happens when millions of men stop dating, marrying, and starting families? And what happens to universities, communities, and the economy when the next generation never arrives?'

'A Massachusetts jury recently awarded scientist David Sabatini $6 million and rejected the sexual-misconduct claims that had ended his career at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and shuttered his research laboratory at the Whitehead Institute. The jury’s seven women and six men brought a measure of objectivity and decency to the facts that the leaders of MIT and Whitehead could not.

Sabatini’s case is a perfect example how DEI and the rest of the left’s political crusades are so destructive to America. The verdict vindicates Sabatini, who has long maintained that his accuser, Kristin Knouse, had lied. But the legal fight took years of his life and nearly ruined him financially. And it shouldn’t be the end of the story. The trial exposed how thin — and how rotten — MIT’s and Whitehead’s case against Sabatini had been all along. MIT and Whitehead owe the public a reckoning. The Trump administration must investigate MIT and Whitehead.'

'From this diagnosis of men’s woes has followed a misguided attempt at a cure: setting tariffs in the hopes of bringing back manufacturing jobs, kicking out immigrants who might “steal” these jobs from “real” Americans, and vanquishing the DEI culture that has supposedly made workplaces hostile to white men. But the diagnosis is not correct: “Manly” jobs exist and employers are hiring. The trouble lies in finding men who are willing and able to take them.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics just reported that, at the end of August, the mining, logging, construction, and manufacturing sectors had about 800,000 job openings. This represents an increase of 148,000 job openings in the past year, during which job openings across the entire economy increased by 160,000. Police departments and other law-enforcement agencies also have had high vacancy rates and difficulty filling those jobs. If the problem were a shortage of work in predominantly male occupations, these vacancies wouldn’t exist.'

'But I mean that question seriously. Can a pop song cause mental illness? In recent weeks, I’ve become convinced that one song in particular, a song called “Labour” by Paris Paloma, is having a detrimental effect on the sanity of young women across the Western world, especially in America.

In August, the song was the soundtrack to a hundred-thousand TikTok and Instagram reels about the Lindsay Clancy case, each one vying with all the others to make the most lurid and sensational claims about the victimization of women, the unfairness of modern society and the “obvious” guilt of a man whose wife freely admitted she killed her three children with a set of exercise bands while he was out running errands. Now there’s the Cornell Seven case – a campus orgy gone wrong – and again “Labour” is the mood music. The song has become the anthem of generalized female discontent, whatever its object.

'One day, after noticing her squat form, I couldn’t help but intervene. I gave her some tips and a brief demonstration and told her that I just wanted her to avoid injury. She didn’t seem put off at the moment, but the next time I was there, one of the owners pulled me aside and told me that a “female patron” had complained that I was sexually harassing her. I was taken aback and asked if it was because of this interaction, and I was told that, for confidentiality reasons, they couldn’t confirm who complained about me. They said that they take these matters very seriously and banned me from the gym for a month! ...

'An opinion essay published in the Sundial, an independent student magazine, on Tuesday is sparking campus outrage and internal turmoil over concerns that its coverage of sexual assault allegations at Cornell University lacks empathy and factual accuracy.

Student writers from the Sundial wrote a petition Wednesday calling for the publication to “cease organizational operations” until its leaders address concerns with its editorial processes. Student groups have also issued statements and letters to the Sundial, criticizing the inaccuracy of the piece and calling for reforms to the publication.

According to LifeSiteNews and Timothy Gordon, notable Catholic priest and exorcist Fr Chad Ripperger was silenced for his views on marriage and feminism:

On Monday, LifeSiteNews reported that [Denver Archbishop James] Golka had asked Ripperger, a well-known exorcist and Thomist, to undertake a one-year “fast” from public speaking, interviews, preaching, and writing.

Timothy Gordon, the Catholic author, podcaster, and co-producer of the documentary What a Woman Is, publicly asserted that the primary reason Denver Archbishop James Golka restricted Father Chad Ripperger's public ministry was the priest’s teachings on feminism, patriarchy, and Christian marriage.

Gordon made the claim in multiple posts on X in the days after news of the restriction, including a video statement in which he said he possessed “moral certainty” about the cause.
