Justice for Men & Boys 
In the relatively recent past, western civilisation used to run on the phenomenal amount of largely unseen work which men put in, even before they reached the workplace, in order to attract women. There’s a huge investment of male time and effort in education and skills training, which men tend to take very seriously. Not like the female dilettantes who know that the boys will come calling anyway, and spend much of their time at University trying to get coursework done for them. By the usual means…
Then, these young adults go out into a world which has magically decoupled opportunity from merit in a female-friendly manner. The Diversity, Equity & Inclusion quotas can be added to AA, EEO, ESG and all the other BS which brings standards tumbling catastrophically. Having worked in STEM from the 1980s to the 2000s, watched it all beginning to fall apart, even more than two decades ago. Female colleagues handed (male originated) projects on a plate in order to promote their ‘stellar’ careers. The underserved promotions. The almost immediate divorces of their husbands after such promotions, as the fellow now wasn’t ‘good enough’. The tears and accusations of ‘bullying’ if new managers finally expected the quota ladies to perform. Their ‘stress’ (and often prolonged absences) at targets which men wouldn’t have found stretching. The ways around the tight corners that the ladies found themselves in, usually involving sexual manipulation. The laboratories became a nightmare.
What are the results of ‘progressive’ initiatives..? Merit is progressively destroyed. Then, society itself.
Women: “Men just aren’t good enough for us any longer.” (The husbands of promoted women know all about that one)
Men: “What is the point of trying..?”
And, now, in 2025, we have these ‘task forces’, scratching their heads, and wondering what is going on..?

All playing a role in our declining productivity and falling real wages. And by the way a crucial part of the rapid decline in the already sclerotic public services. The feminists are right, they live in a man made world. What they miss entirely is that it is a world of unprecedented comfort and wealth specially in the “west” but also in the “developing world”. Lifting billions out of abject poverty. Thus far the the experiment of making it a woman made world looks to be heading in the direction Camille Paglia’s observation that if it had been left to women we’d still all live in grass huts. “Black” America (and the Afro Caribbean community inn the UK) show us what a women led society looks like. As Thomas Sowell pointed out the rapid post war rise in prosperity in his community post war stalled and reversed in the late 1960s as the respectable education hungry culture was replaced by being “married to the state” and a steady collapse in the traditional family in favour of the feminist ideal of the family as a woman and her children.

Our precipitous decline into a ‘low productivity’ economy is probably irreversible. Blair introduced a human Quantitative Easing where a currency of unskilled non-Anglophones now crosses the Channel illegally, reducing the value of our native sterling. Yet we are encouraged to believe that the afghani, the nakfa and the birr are at parity with the £, and we can fill our pockets with these, together with whatever currency operates in Barbieland.

Ukraine divided: why men who don’t want to be soldiers are dividing the country This caught my eye. In a sense much of it is quite ordinary. What it does show is the absolute difference for Ukrainian men in terms of the choices and decisions they have to make compared to their female peers. I was reminded of the infamous “women suffer most” Clinton comment about war. Because one of the problems highlighted here is “social tensions” between women who have Brothers or partners in the forces and those who are protecting their men. Fascinating in amongst the deaths, maiming and prisoners of war that drive the demand for more soldiers the “social tensions” between the women is one of the big issues! Somehow the estimated 100,000 men dead and 1000s maimed are not enough when there can be “social tensions” amongst the women. Women just have it worse.
Meanwhile in Russia Russian soldiers told: State will find you a wife A pragmatic approach to help returning soldiers to reintegrate into being productive citizens, by helping them back into civilian life through family formation. Also reveals the dark side for Soldiers, soldiers married for their “death benefits” (in much the way US soldiers are often a “catch” for the health insurance) so much of a problem the state has tried to stamp it out.
In both countries no one is expecting women to wrestle with big choices of life and death, exile or fighting, rehabilitation back into civilian life following at the very least a couple of years away and for all too many months in a grinding high casualty war of attrition.
Yet in both nations women have the vote and full citizenship rights (including freedom to travel) without any of the pretty hard demands made on their brothers. When the chips are down its pretty clear who is expected to suck it up and head for danger.
