I finally got around to building a home for all my papers & opinions online so that the bots can at least send me fake journals I’m interested in. Sadly ‘the man whisperer’ was already taken. Find me here to keep up w my work at @MovemberAUS@orygen_aus: https://t.co/5KQXY28p2h
This week is Men's Health Week and I sat down with @zacseidler from @MovemberAUS to talk about the state of men's health in Australia. We discuss the stresses men face, the algorithmic dangers of the "manosphere", the "perception gap" pressuring men to hide their true values, and why society desperately needs more "third spaces" for connection.

Three videos, three very different messages about masculinity and health. New research shows this is how the manosphere finds young men. @milleridriss@zacseidler@KristaSFisher@unimelb https://t.co/I9C4cMtshu
Endless ink has been spilled claiming that children will inevitably get around age assurance. Not enough attention has been paid to the obvious commercial interest of the technology sector in strategic incompetence to undermine these reforms. https://t.co/FcnzHTuoUH
"Thriving is not a zero-sum game. Empathy is not a zero-sum game." This week on the Lean Out pod, @zacseidler joins me for an urgent conversation about men's mental health & how we can help men flourish again. Link to that episode in the reply. @Movember@MovemberCA@MovemberAUS

Grow a moustache. Raise funds. Support men’s mental health.
"Across the country we are seeing more men open up about their mental and physical health. Old narratives are changing. This is something we should celebrate This is something we should build on."
"I’m a proud feminist but we need to be better and engaging and speaking to men. We need to help them go on a journey. We’ve got to do it together. Men’s health and wellbeing influence every aspect of our society."

Our new Real Face of Men's Health report for the U.S. shows 53% of American men are now dying before age of 75—a trend that's getting worse.
Movember's @zacseidler sat down with @jonfavs to discuss all things men's health and wellness. https://t.co/NTHXolJDH1
“Men aged 30-34 in the United States—prime fatherhood years—experienced an 85% increase in mental health problems over the past decade. These are men navigating precarious employment, economic instability, and new parenthood – the most profound identity transition imaginable.”
“The question isn’t whether men can change. It’s whether we’ll build systems that make sustained change the norm rather than the exception,” @zacseidler notes in a guest post for my latest substack edition. Check it out: https://t.co/wiZ7wCnKwv
@zacseidler from @Movember writes that men die younger mostly from preventable causes, and that we still reward self-sacrifice while also urging men to seek help.
The fix lies in systems that let fathers stay healthy and connected.

Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, joined Movember, the leading global men’s health nonprofit, for an evening conversation that laid bare a crisis hiding in plain sight: American men are dying younger, struggling more, and suffering in silence at rates that demand urgent attention.
About last night…
Officially launched our @Movember US Real Face of Men’s Health and a friend of ours, the Duke himself, dropped in to say hi and share some thoughts. A big moment for the movement.

"I saw what happens when men suffer in silence and how rare it is for them to get the right support.
At Movember, I get to turn that personal loss into systemic change." - @zacseidler

it doesn’t matter how important your job is, if you don’t spend time on your social connections, your life expectancy will drop.
