While men suffer a lengthy list of discriminatory treatment one of the most glaring are countries which conscript only men into military service. We felt ending Movember with a press release about male only conscription will help highlight it as a major health issue, which clearly it is considering the hundreds of thousands of...

The Isla Vista shooting/stabbing/car assault(s) is already old news, given that there’s already been one, or two, other shootings in the news – the last one yesterday in Oregon, I believe. Once again, a male acts out violently. Where are the Offices of Men’s Health and male support networks? Where are men like those...

By J. Steven Svoboda Last month, the National Post published Mark Joseph Stern’s article (“’Intactivists’ against circumcision, Sept. 19) criticizing anti-circumcision activists, whom Mr. Stern dismissed as “fringe,” “paranoid” and “bizarre.” But individuals committed to safeguarding children from unnecessary surgical interference include leading scientists, pediatricians, public health researchers, bioethicists, medical historians, and human rights...

NCFM NOTE: On September 22, Mr. Svoboda sent a letter to Canada’s leading newspaper, the National Post, and to Slate, in response to Mark Joseph Stern’s horrific article, “‘Intactivists’ Against Circumcision.” Below is the text of the letter. The letter sent to Slate is virtually identical. We need to let children reach the age of majority and let them decide...

Now that men and women pay equally for healthcare, shouldn’t men receive equal coverage when it comes to fully covered services? Shouldn’t there finally be a government health office dealing with men’s health? Men and women should sign this petition no matter if they agree with the Affordable Care Act or not. The Act...

A German court just ruled that infant male circumcision is ILLEGAL and can subject the perpetrator to prosecution for ASSAULT (just like for infant female circumcision)! This is a HUGE victory for the anti-circumcision movement and children’s rights. Male circumcision removes the foreskin of the penis. The foreskin contains most of the high sensory...
