I am currently creating a platform (currently UK only, so far) to collect politicians positions on male issues with the hope of creating a voting bloc to force them to take some form of stand.

Currently the majority of the western parties and politicians simply have no position on male issues. You almost can't blame them as there is no pressure or motive for them to do so. Most are probably completely unaware of the issues in the first place.

Most of the complaints we have are not fringe or even remotely debatable. Investigating the Education Gender Gap, banning Circumcision, making a Minister for Men (to match the Women's one) are obvious and largely unarguably good ideas. I personally am at the point in my life where I consider these things more pressing issues than virtually everything else, regardless of aisle, politically.

Political pressure groups have successfully made manspreading, and staring at women, on public transport illegal. I think it's about time we put some of our own pressure on - we are 50% of the population yet entirely unrepresented in government.

While not yet ready for launch I have made huge progress over the last few months I am ready to demo the initial site. While not ready 100% it provides a solid template of how it will work, with the ability to signup, view your constituency and pledge your vote to the candidate who supports your concerns.

Mainly I and am seeking feedback and community involvement, especially with generating the issues pages, and also general commentary as working on it in isolation doesn't result in a varied perspective.

So if you are interested (and we really can use your support) visit the subreddit - there are details on viewing the demo there - and give your feedback.
