Today I heard someone say that there is an "insecurity epidemic among young men" and I am just so fucking happy someone has FINALLY given me the words to describe what is happening to the world. I keep hearing whinging about "men's mental health crisis" and "male loneliness" and "male suicide rates" blahblah in spite of the fact that none of that stuff is actually an issue. Women's depression and rates of suicide attempts have remained consistently higher than men's over the years, and if we look at sex stats you'll see that the rise of loneliness is actually affecting women at very similar rates to men (12% and 14% celibacy rates in the US, respectively). Not to mention the suicide attempts of young women and girls have sky-rocketed in the last couple of years. Suicidal ideation in girls in my country is currently double that of boys. In spite of all this we still see males lashing out en masse, claiming that "men are under attack", "women are privileged", and feminism is "ruining men's lives". Even though none of their claims have any basis in reality there is still an obvious problem here- something is very disturbed in the modern male psyche; but I have not seen anyone accurately label the issue until today. There is an insecurity epidemic among men. Women are finally attending classes, entering the workplace, and gaining voting rights in most countries around the world. These changes are a recent development and they are making modern men question their place in society- as they should. Sadly, instead of taking this time to self reflect, men are desperately trying to stop women's suffrage and cry "abuse" whenever we hold firm. What we are seeing is a big, glorified tantrum, not a "mental health crisis". I am not sure how we would go about fixing this problem but I'm glad that I am finally able to name it!! I thank D'Angelo Wallace for the help.

What's something that the LGBT community should know but doesn't?

Stonewall was a tipping point in queer rights, not the entire movement.

There's more to LGBT history than just Stonewall and LGBT history from other countries should be brought up more

All these exclusionists and TERFs or whatever are extremely harmful to the community. I've seen so much bisexual exclusion and ace exclusion, and it weakens us.

The way we view, label and categorize gender and sexuality changes over time.

People with more obscure or less widely accepted identities aren't responsible for homophobia/transphobia.

Racism is a GIGANTIC problem in the LGBTQIA community.

Support for the rest of the community is at a record high, but support for trans rights is declining.

Despite our setbacks and long journey of rights issues, it is important to never stop believing in and talking about what is rightfully ours: freedom, sovereignty, autonomy, acceptance, accommodation, support, and appreciation

Online flag/label/slur discourse is fucking stupid, especially when homophobia plus transphobia is getting normalized as bigots get more vocal online in the name of "free speech".

People with vulva should still practice safe sex, as many STIs can still be transmitted between them.

Gatekeeping leads us nowhere

Don't play in the oppression Olympics.

The LGBTQI+ community should know that we are a global community

Fascists don’t deserve respect

when i lived in saudi arabia i felt basically like property as a woman, i couldn’t really have a job or wear anything but black I couldn’t go outside without a male escort and certainly couldn’t leave the country, which is why my parents took me there. they could feel some hope in me for a better life for myself and wanted to kill it. they had an idea of what i should be as a woman and wanted that idea to crush what i wanted for myself. i should’ve died there but i didn’t, i kept going kept living kept finding some tiny bit of hope in me to fight for, and eventually somehow i made it out. what i’m trying to say is there is something inside of everyone some tiny bit of hope that nothing can reach no matter how hard they try, and they will try because they can see it in you, hold onto that and use it to fight your way through every day until one day we make it out to the other side

I think it's kinda fucked up that Maya Weug, someone who was scoring points in FRECA (which is like a step above F4) is struggling in F1 Academy. So if she doesn't manage to climb higher in the driver's standings, what's next in her single seater career? Sponsors and teams may think she's not good enough if these results continue!
