The 15 leading causes of death, both sexes, rates per 100,000 population, 2009
“Two years ago, [Australia's] Federal Government developed the first National Male Health Policy, with the aim of bringing men’s health outcomes up to women’s.” -Men’s Health Issues, January 18, 2013
In the United States, it is different:
“Fortunately, our daughters’ and mothers’ health challenges are addressed by seven federal offices of women’s health. Our sons’ and fathers’ are not addressed by a single federal office of men’s health.” -Warren Farrell, author of The Myth of Male Power
“Not addressed by a single federal office of men’s health,” despite men’s average shorter life span and poorer health. Think about that. What would feminists say — and do — if women on average died sooner than men and had poorer health, and all the offices of health were for men? Can you even imagine what feminists would do? Exactly what men should do.
