By Stacey Tallitsch | July 8, 2026 There is a tidy story making the rounds again this summer, and it goes like this: men are in trouble because of what men believe. The rigid code — be strong, provide, don't flinch, don't ask for help — has been given

The 'Deadbeat Dad' Isn't a Villain. He's a Debtor.
The deadbeat dad is the one man it's still safe to hate. But 78% of the nation's child support debt is owed by parents earning under $20,000 a year. He isn't refusing to pay. He can't - and the enforcement machine is built to keep it that way.

Boys' ADHD Isn't a Disorder. It's a Design Mismatch.
Every June the men's mental-health campaigns tell us to catch it early. Spot the struggling boy. Get him assessed. Get him medicated before he becomes another grim statistic. It sounds like compassion, and in the right case it is.

By Stacey Tallitsch | June 25, 2026 This week, CNN took its readers inside an exclusive California “man camp,” where, in the outlet’s own framing, one woman is trying to save men from themselves. It is a near-perfect snapshot of how the establishment narrates the male loneliness epidemic: men
