For false accusations, I suggest watching "I Am Not A Rapist" It is a BBC3 documentary (surprisingly) that released recently and can be found on iPlayer... it took 5 years to be approved. The fact that false accusations are only recorded as false if the complainant admits falsehood, is outrageous.

You could include the demonization of men/masculinity in media and culture... e.g. look at how men are portrayed in non-fictional contexts (i.e. not fantasy but things like sitcoms etc.), and how these have affected our subconscious outlook of men as being criminal, hypersexual, unintelligent, predatory...

You could obviously look into legal issues such as: custody, paternity, reproductive rights, prison sentencing, police brutality, definition of rape to include "made to penetrate"...

There's also the problem of recognition, particularly from government. The lack of DV/sexual abuse support for men (and the abundance of it for women) causes men to suffer alone, and practically advertises the notion that only men are perpetrators. There's also no recognition for the fact that men are far more likely to be assaulted, particularly by non-SOs. There are no shelters for men in the US and only a few in the UK

Feminist lobbying laws that actively discriminate against men, such as VAWA, which considers male victims of abuse as the abusers (Duluth Model). Also that a study done in Wales, which funnily enough I was part of, surveyed some 10,000 teenagers and found that 17% of boys compared to 12% of girls were victims of DV, and this continues to rise ever year. There's also a CDC report that shows "made to penetrate" figures are surprisingly high, and almost on par with rape statistics.

The worst one would be suicide: ~3 men to 1 women, and the fact that this is greatly increasing each year. This issue is often snatched by feminists as a way of further degrading men by saying "toxic masculinity" - an unhelpful, damaging term that is based on theory, rather than solid fact. Meanwhile, counselling is ill-equipped to deal with men's issues, being 80% female counsellors.

And of course, the education gap, which also worsens every year. Studies in the US have proven that female teachers favour girls work (with exception to maths because obviously there's no interpretation involved). This year, OFQAL and the Irish equivalent downgraded males qualifications more to "bring the cohort inline with previous years". Not only was it an extrapolation resulting in girls outperforming boys more than ever, it was also conveniently ignored by press/media, who only focused on the postcode lottery... clearly classism is far worse than institutional misandry. Males attendance of education decreases by age - women are an overwhelming majority at universities (though this is a matter of choice, so I would avoid mentioning this part - not enough research has been done to find out why).

There's a lot of very useful and insightful resources you can find on u/TheTinMenBlog. His Instagram is great!

The reference book of men's issues is a good place to start. Along with this sub's faq / sidebar.

If you're mobile you might have to request the desktop site in your reddit settings to find it.

We get these requests a lot. Which is great and I think is a sign of progress.

In addition to the link that u/duhhh posted, you might find this useful also:

Both are about a day old.

If you want more details on specific topics, respond in the comments about what you're interested in.

Forget the presentation. The matriarchy could come for you at any time.
