Today I have put the stops on https://t.co/LP6MvGnQMo
The idea from the beginning was simple, a place for men to find adequate support for what ever stage they were in life.
The project has set me back near £2000, from building the website, webflow no code apps to the monthly hosting charge.
I didn't make a single penny from this and honestly I have no regrets. But now the costs are too much for me and I don't seem to have the energy I once did.
From early 2024 when I had the idea of ForMenSake until now November 2025 the issues surrounding men are still there and I am struggling to see if things have gotten any better.
For me, the experience of helping men is like finding someone with a broken leg, you shout out hoping someone will help but no one does. They stand for a moment or two and say how its a terrible thing and then go on their way.
I hope the website and this X page brought some positive impact to men who are struggling in this world.
Thanks to @FarzaTV for pushing me through @_buildspace to make this idea into a reality.
Thank you to those who followed me.
Perhaps one day I will revive the website, but for now it is goodbye.
Every year for vday her dad always took her on a date and this year since she was in college, they
planned a virtual date where she would fit him when she could.
She went out to eat and when she sat down a few minutes later he walked up beside her and said
"how about we have dinner together" and she absolutely lost it. THE BEST SURPRISE EVER!
What a cool dad! ❤️
Yep, its all good saying male suicide is terrible but beyond that, there is a real sense that many just accept the issues facing men. In some cases it goes beyond putting their heads in the sand. They seem to believe men having issues is just how it goes.
In essence saying, men should have problems.
I live alone & have no friends. In the summer my neighbour often has all his mates around & they have a bbq & beers. I silently sit on the other side of the fence drinking beer & pretend I'm drinking with them. I know all their names, wives & kids but they don't know I exist

Male loneliness isn't something to be scoffed at.
Men are becoming increasingly isolated, and with it comes a cost to their health.
What does male loneliness really look like beyond the noise?:

@bbcquestiontime Indeed, to be attacked on appearance in efforts to belittle someone is rude and unproductive.
Striving to be fit and healthy on the other hand is incredibly productive. To be fit is more than the superficial image. It serves to the bolster the mind and body.
@NecktieSalvage Well said. It's very easy to get sucked into the minute by minute updates on Middle Eastern news. It becomes a roller coaster of wanting to know what happens next.
That level of mental investment can make you feel like you're in the madness yourself..
Men's rights activists have either experienced or witnessed serious issues negatively impacting men, and they want to seek solutions.
Feminism has been a monumental movement advancing women's rights, and it's clear this has also affected men in various ways.
One would hope the UN of all organisations would understand that male issues are real, that male activism is a valid cause, and not simply an excuse to blame feminism..
Men’s rights groups say they support men—but often blame #feminism for male “disadvantage,” framing men as victims of #equality.

Ever since working on ForMenSake, I've had to step back multiple times.
There's a whole lot of hurting in the male world. What's worse is how little people care and how there's little appetite for sustained change.
I won't be giving up anytime soon, but this is by no means easy.
How would you know if you are discriminating against men?
An article has found that people - especially women - are more willing to accept men being harmed than women being harmed.

There is nothing wrong with genders mixing, but when something is as explicit as "Men in Sheds", a level of respect is warranted.
Sad to see that respect tarnished by putting "pressure" and forcing change to a group which aims to help men.
This may or may not be true, but there is no doubt many eldest sons take on the burden of high expectations and de facto care taker of the family.

So-called 'sextortion' is up by 43%.

As #Ai image generation become more accessible, a predatory industry emerges: Ai models/personas targeting men.
This isn't a gold rush, this is another attempt to exploit male loneliness.

"We need a male-centered approach" resonates strongly.
Many men avoid therapy because they want to solve problems themselves. Effective support doesn't pathologise men or dictate solutions, it empowers them with resources that respect their autonomy.
Supporting men means equipping them to overcome challenges on their own terms and not by telling them they're broken.
"There has been a huge surge in the number of people and organisations wanting to help men. This is fantastic… or is it?"
