Menstuff.org celebrates International Men's Month June 1-30 by discussing a different men's issue each day at https://bit.ly/2LnGoSE

International Men's Health Week starts June 11 leading up to Father's Day with a different health issue each day. https://bit.ly/2swt2fB

So why should you care? For starters, men die four years earlier than women and at higher rates from the top 10 causes of death - heart disease, cancer, stroke, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, accidents, pneumonia and influenza, diabetes, suicide, kidney disease, and chronic liver disease and cirrhosis.

Health Problems Women vs Men: Intellectual Disability - 2/3; Autistic 1/4.5; Hyperactive child 1-3 to 7; Bedwetters at age 5 - 3%/7%; Stutterers 1/4; Suicide attempts 4/1; Suicide 1/3.5.

We believe that women and men are each other's natural allies, not enemies. And that women and men's freedom is interdependent on the other's. (https://bit.ly/2JfFiYd) Therefore, eradicating all sexism is in the interest of both groups. Information on women's issues abounds on television and the web, through national and local support services and college courses, and on book shelves in bookstores and libraries. Menstuff.org covers hundreds of men's issues https://bit.ly/2xIkWpz in our attempt to provide some balance. Check us out. www.menstuff.org
