Great article illuminating a most important point. If the incidence of depression and suicide we see among men were happening to women there would be a four alarm crisis. It is not acceptable for any society to fail to listen to a sector on the grounds that your grandfather had it great. Men today have had no share in the benefits of the past,nor have they committed the crimes that occurred then.

Men are still more likely than women to be victims of violence, but I've never seen anyone address that. Anything that might deny women their moral status as victims is ignored or shouted down.

Thank you, but the grandfathers didn't have it so great, either. They were sacrificial lambs in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam.
