  • By Selwyn Duke More than 50 percent of young, liberal, white women have been diagnosed with some form of “mental health” problem, a 2020 Pew Research Center study found. What’s scarier still, the joke goes, is that this means close to 50 percent are running around undiagnosed. This is a not uncommon joke for a…

  • By Selwyn Duke In case you didn’t hear about it, and you might not have given that the outcome wasn’t media-narrative friendly, there was another tennis “Battle of the Sexes” yesterday. And, boy, it was not a good night for feminism and the “transgender” agenda. Aryna Sabalenka, a Belarusian and currently the world’s number one…

  • By Selwyn Duke “‘Guns don’t kill people; men and boys kill people,’ experts say,” read an October 2017 USA Today headline. The next month, Democrat Dana Nessel, running for Michigan attorney general, told state residents to support her, not a man. She meant any man because, her reasoning went, a woman won’t likely commit sexual harassment. (Nessel won her…

  • By Selwyn Duke It was in 2005 that I wrote about the “dehumanizing of men.” A half-decade earlier, the book The War Against Boys by Christina Hoff Sommers was published. Yet the anti-male spirit of the age marched on, and now the consequences are painfully apparent. In fact and in a way, young men today are going…

  • By Selwyn Duke It’s called the “gender gap” (should be “sex gap,” really) in voting, and, boy, did it ever manifest itself last night. In fact, Tuesday, November 4 was a great day for the GOP. That is, in an alternate universe in which only men vote. Let’s go down the list. In Virginia there…

  • By Selwyn Duke What are the best indicators that a person will embrace left-wing authoritarianism? An interesting study, related by psychologist Jordan Peterson years ago, found that the best indicator was having low verbal intelligence. Number two was “being female.” None of this would surprise commentator Andrea Widburg. (I don’t think it did surprise her, either, when…

  • By Selwyn Duke In 2014, the Obama administration sued the Pennsylvania State Police (PSP) for treating women equally. Yes, you read that right. The problem: Female applicants were failing the PSP physical fitness test at a higher rate than did their male counterparts. It didn’t matter, either, that the standards had already been laughably dumbed down.…

  • By Selwyn Duke In a disastrous recent Men’s Day celebration, New York City Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani couldn’t lift 135 pounds. Nonetheless, some liberals believe the socialist communist may succeed in lifting the Democrats out of their doldrums with young men. This hope may seem fanciful to some. What’s next, they could wonder, trying to…

  • By Selwyn Duke “Well, that’s very stylish.” So said tough silver-screen cop Dirty Harry Callahan, in the 1976 film The Enforcer, reacting to a feminist initiative. Its goal was, a woke female official informed, to “broaden the areas of participation for women in the police force.” This was, of course, art imitating life, and today we’re…

  • By Selwyn Duke When the Māori conquered the Moriori in the South Pacific in the mid-19th century, they proceeded to kill most of the fighting-age men and boys. The process, known as “androcide,” has occurred numerous times in history. The idea: Neuter a society by eliminating masculinity — in this case, by eliminating the masculine…
