'In 2020, Joe Biden won young men under 30 by 15 points. In 2024, Donald Trump won them by 13 points. What happened, and what can Democrats do about it? As someone who has been elected three times to the board of directors of the National Organization for Women in New York City, I was worried about dynamics that I felt few Democrats were registering.

I saw these repeatedly as I was researching my book, “The Boy Crisis.” I recall interviewing a young man from Mill Valley, California, a city with deep Democratic Party ties. As the interview concluded, he broke down, “I wish I hadn’t been born male.”'

'Late in the US presidential election campaign, Democrats discovered a serious problem. Young men, minorities especially, had abandoned the party in droves. An American Compass poll, conducted with YouGov in early October, captured a snapshot: 20 per cent of young non-white men had not yet settled on either Donald Trump or Kamala Harris, and those who had decided were evenly split. 

Harris did not know what to say to these defectors. Her coalition was built on an identity politics that presumed an alliance among younger and LGBTQ+ voters, women and people of colour, all sharing the same commitment to a progressive vision of social justice. Somewhat awkwardly, the actual agenda — fighting climate change and forgiving student debt, resisting any restrictions on immigration or abortion — aligned primarily with the interests and priorities of a white, female, college-educated elite. But anyone who looked like a coalition member was expected to vote accordingly.'

'For years, the phrase "toxic masculinity" took over discussions about men. Any success by men was discounted as a privilege of the patriarchy. The #MeToo movement presumed men guilty until proven innocent.

Men were told not so subtly to be quiet and to fade away. They were more dangerous than a bear in the woods. And less necessary than a fish with a bicycle.

The Harris campaign doubled down on this narrative, focusing on young women to the point of pandering. She hung out on "The View" and "Call Her Daddy," and snubbed Rogan's invitation to speak to the millions of young men who listen to his podcast.

Trump and Vance sent a very different message: Men, you belong. Men, we appreciate you. Men who are masculine, kind, hardworking and family-oriented. You are necessary and you are vital. We will work together to fix what's broken so the people we love are safe and thrive.

It's a message that men wanted and needed to hear. And they rewarded Trump and Vance with their votes.'

'A radical feminist movement in which women shun marriage, dating and sex with men is taking hold among young liberal Americans in the wake of Donald Trump’s election victory.

Originating in South Korea and known as 4B, which means “four nos” in Korean, its tenets are: no dating, no sex with men, no marriage and no children.

Other principles include ditching beauty products and avoiding social interactions with men altogether.

“The women in South Korea are doing it. It’s time we join them,” said one post on X. “Men will NOT be rewarded, nor have access to our bodies.”'

'A man has said he can’t believe his wife was ready to “throw away our entire life” after filing for divorce over his vote for Donald Trump.

The distraught husband wrote on social media that he has been left without words that the marriage could fall apart over politics - and that the divorce papers could be served so quickly.

"She won’t have a discussion, she says nothing will change her mind Insists she is going to report my parents because they live off of disability but my dad does some cash work auto repair, so now I’m worried for my while family (sic).”

It clearly seems that the relationship has quickly become acrimonious with a vicious argument now over possessions. He continued in his post: “She wants me to buy her out of the house, we have $300k in it plus built a 4-bay garage since we bought it 3 years ago. I can’t afford that.'

'An Ohio English teacher is on leave after recording herself in what appears to be her classroom suggesting men should wear “blue bracelets or blue safety pins” to identify themselves as “safe” for non-Trump voters.

Danielle Mann (pictured), a 26-year veteran educator at Talawanda High School who also teaches a “Holocaust Resistance” course and is advisor to the school Gay-Straight Alliance, made the recording two days after the election.

Mann “challenges” such men to post their own videos to TikTok and other platforms so people like her could “thank” them and have it “on the record” as to who the “safe” males are.

Such videos also would allow people to know these men “tried to do right by the people of this country.”

Mann goes on to claim women are now in “danger” and says that even though she’s a white woman, “they will get to [her] eventually.”'

'Feminism evokes distinct opinions, perspectives, and beliefs. Environmental and social factors also play a major role in shaping feminist beliefs. However, this sociological concept has major psychological origins. A study published in Personality and Individual Differences examines the Dark Triad, a cluster of malevolent personality traits - narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy - and their association with feminist beliefs, providing a deeper glimpse into the psychological mechanisms behind feminism.

'From The Left

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough claimed on Friday’s Morning Joe that Democratic claims around toxic masculinity pushed male voters to Donald Trump. Some of the analysis around the president-elect’s victory this week has focused on how Trump benefited from his improved performance with traditionally Democrat-supporting groups including Black and Latino men. Exit showed Trump picking up 47 percent of Latino men and his standing with young Black men compared with four years ago. “There’s been an awful lot of talk about people who have traditionally voted for Democrats, Black men, Hispanic men.'

'In the months leading up to election day, pollsters were fixated on one demographic: young men. This group, often elusive in political data, was showing signs of a notable swing toward Donald Trump and away from the progressive viewpoints of young women.

Traditionally a policy wonk, Richard Reeves became an unlikely media mainstay this election cycle, sought after by those trying to decode the concerns and motivations of these gen Z male voters. Reeves is president of the American Institute for Boys and Men, which he started in 2023 to create research-based approaches to bettering the education, mental health, and work and family life of men. Many of the institute’s policy proposals were outlined in Reeves’s 2022 book Of Boys and Men: Why the Modern Male Is Struggling, Why It Matters, and What to Do About It.'

'Matt feared his wife was going to kill him. He had seen violent streaks before. Once, when he accused her of infidelities, Matt said she pulled a knife and “put it (at) my throat.”

Fleeing wasn’t an option because they had young children. He felt stuck without a safe refuge where he could take them. “As long as I had my kids, that’s all I cared about,” Matt said.

He expected the police wouldn’t take him seriously: a six-foot-tall Caribbean man scared of his wife. “If anything happens and she calls the cops, they’re going to come straight at me,” he told the National Post, requesting anonymity to protect his children.'

'November 7, 2024 – Men have long been a decisive force in presidential contests (1). Exit polls from Tuesday’s election showed race, ethnicity, and marital status were particularly important factors (2):

• Race: 60% of White males voted for Trump, compared to only 37% supporting Harris.
• Ethnicity: Hispanic men favored Trump over Harris, by a 55% to 43% margin.
• Marital Status: Among married men, 60% supported Trump and 38% favored Harris.

Contributing to these numbers were five major missteps by the Harris campaign:
