To End the Ideological Capture of the UN, We Must Revive the Traditional Family. Press Release from the International Council for Men and Boys: menandboys.net/to-end-the-id… The United Nations has faced growing criticisms of ideological capture in recent years. Observers say the UN has become “more politicized, less principled, and increasingly disconnected from its founding mission” (1). The recent report, “From Watchdogs to Ideologues,” documents how the Human Rights Council’s own special rapporteurs have traded neutral monitoring for political advocacy (2). The politicization occurred at the same time as a diminishing role of the traditional family — the natural and fundamental unit of society — in UN policy and programs. Indeed, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights affirms that the “family is the natural and fundamental group unit of society and is entitled to protection by society and the State” (3). The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights echoes the same guarantee (4). In 1994, the UN proclaimed the International Year of the Family, honoring the family as the basic unit of society (5). But soon, the pro-family focus began to be challenged. UN bodies increasingly advanced a sexual-rights agenda, promoting “gay marriage,” “comprehensive sexuality education,” and “autonomous sexual rights” for minors. At the same time, the family unit itself was being redefined and the rights of parents sidelined. In response in 2008, a coalition of governments and civil-society groups founded the UN Family Rights Caucus, conceived to resist the sexual-rights movement and keep the traditional family protected under UN policy (6). But in 2011, the Human Rights Council adopted Resolution 17/19, “Human rights, sexual orientation and gender identity,” which endorsed transgender ideology (7). Seven years later, UN Women issued an Internal Guidance Note on Strengthening Programming and Advocacy on the Rights and Empowerment of LGBTI People (8). The same drift that politicized the UN’s human-rights machinery has pulled its family policy away from the protections promised by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Reviving the traditional family is the key to reversing it. The International Council for Men and Boys (ICMB) is now calling on the United Nations to honor the pro-family principles that it held at its founding. The traditional family is not only the structural basis of a flourishing and prosperous society. It is also a bulwark that deters the ideological capture of social institutions. ICMB calls on the United Nations and its member states to: - Reject the ideological capture of UN institutions documented in independent reviews, and return its human-rights bodies to neutral, evidence-based work. - Reaffirm the family as “the natural and fundamental group unit of society,” as the UN’s own founding texts require. - Recommit to marriage, children, and fathers as the three foundations of a renewed family life. The family built every society that endures. We ask the United Nations to defend it once again. The International Council for Men and Boys is a non-governmental organization working to end the 12 sex disparities that affect men and boys worldwide. The ICMB is a leader of the emerging global movement to address these disparities. menandboys.net/ Links: 1. theepochtimes.com/world/new-… 2. unwatch.org/un-watch-exposes… 3. un.org/en/about-us/universal… 4. ohchr.org/en/instruments-mec… 5. social.desa.un.org/issues/fa… 6. unfamilyrightscaucus.org/abo… 7. digitallibrary.un.org/record… 8. asiapacific.unwomen.org/site… @menandboysnet

Behind every "dad bod" may be something even more important: a healthier dad brain. This fascinating article by clinical psychologist Darby Saxbe highlights growing evidence that fatherhood doesn't just benefit children, it benefits fathers too... For years we've heard about the value of involved dads for children's wellbeing, educational attainment, emotional development, and social skills. But research is increasingly showing that fatherhood can also improve men's lives by giving them greater meaning, purpose, connection, empathy, and community. Studies cited in the article suggest that fathers may enjoy cognitive advantages compared with childless men, including younger-looking brains, stronger brain connectivity, and better performance across multiple measures of cognition. Some findings suggest the brain-health benefits of fatherhood are comparable to those associated with regular exercise. The article also notes that modern fathers are more engaged than ever. Men's childcare time has increased dramatically over recent generations, with many dads embracing not only play and mentoring, but also the everyday tasks of feeding, bathing, dressing, and caring for children. Fatherhood isn't always easy. It can bring sleep deprivation, stress, weight gain, and mental health challenges. Yet the evidence suggests that investing in family relationships often pays long-term dividends for men's wellbeing, resilience, and life satisfaction... Perhaps the most powerful insight is that the qualities of a good father are also the qualities of a good man: strength combined with compassion, leadership balanced with listening, responsibility, perseverance, protection, and care for the vulnerable. At a time when many public conversations focus on men's problems from a derogatory perspective, it's encouraging to see research highlighting one of men's greatest strengths: the capacity to love, nurture, guide, and sacrifice for the next generation. Healthy fathers help create healthy families, healthy communities, and a healthier society. nytimes.com/2026/06/06/opini…

Yesterday I joined with the Men's Ministry at St Matthew's Anglican Church in Wanniassa. This group is led by Craig Bickell and holds monthly events, including a regular Men's Breakfast. About 60-70 men take part in these events, including men of all ages and backgrounds. They are welcoming and warm. A good place to deepen faith, meet other men, and build friendships... For the Men's Breakfast on Saturday morning this weekend, the topic was An introduction to Biblical Peacemaking. The speaker was Wayne Forward of PeaceWise. In August, this Men's Ministry at St Matthew's will connect with KCC Basecamp Men’s Conference, which features Matt Fuller and Matt Steele as speakers. These sessions will also include the regular Men's Breakfast on Saturday morning 8 August. Check out the upcoming events here: stmattswanniassa.org.au/even…

Being a Christian in Society (John Steenhof, 23/7/22) youtu.be/gLvFAY6YZjg?si=2rZ7… via @YouTube

Movie review of The Patriot (2000) Few films celebrate fatherhood, courage, sacrifice, and the partnerships between men and women as powerfully as The Patriot. Set during the American War of Independence, the film follows Benjamin Martin (played by Mel Gibson), a widowed father who wants nothing more than to protect his family and live in peace. When war and tragedy arrive at his doorstep, he reluctantly takes up arms to defend those he loves. What makes The Patriot stand out is its deeply human portrayal of masculinity. Benjamin isn't a fearless action hero seeking glory. He's a loving father who values life, grieves deeply, sheds tears, and carries the heavy burden of responsibility. His courage isn't the absence of fear, but the willingness to act despite it. The relationship between Benjamin and his son Gabriel (played by Heath Ledger), beautifully illustrates mentorship, honour, and the passing of values from one generation to the next. Equally important is the film's depiction of women. While the men fight on the battlefield, women such as Charlotte and Anne provide moral grounding. They nurture family bonds, care for the vulnerable, and help sustain the community through its darkest hours. Their contributions are neither trivial nor secondary; they are essential. The film presents men and women not as rivals, but as partners whose different strengths combine to protect family and society... The Patriot reminds us that healthy civilisation depends on brave men willing to defend what they love as well as caring women who help hold families and communities together. It's a stirring tribute to masculine virtue, feminine strength, and the enduring power of cooperation between the sexes.

More and more people on the moderate and conservative side are recognizing that feminism has been harmful. They talk about how it lied to women, made women unhappy, damaged families, hurt boys, and left men struggling. But frustratingly, the conversation often ends in the same place: women as the primary victims. Women are the victims of dating apps. Women are the victims of birth control. Women are the victims of delayed motherhood. Women are the victims of feminism itself. Even if all those things disappeared tomorrow, the deeper problem would remain. Feminism’s greatest victory was not dating apps, birth control, or women entering the workforce. It was teaching us that every social question must be judged primarily by how it affects women. Can we say that children need their mothers without immediately shifting the conversation to whether mothers will be bored? Can we say that a struggling marriage should sometimes be endured for the sake of the children without immediately asking whether the wife feels fulfilled? Can we ask what men need from women without first reassuring ourselves that women will benefit too? The family was built on obligations flowing in all directions. Feminism taught us to see obligations to women as moral, and obligations from women as oppression. Until that attitude changes, feminism remains undefeated.

“At the mean, this difference isn’t particularly big. If we see a woman who’s the average height for men, we don’t faint from shock. However, if we look at the tallest people in the world – people who are, say, two metres tall or above – we find that virtually all of them are men.” stevestewartwilliams.com/p/s…

Book Review of Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Men (CEDAM) by Carl Reinhold Augustsson In 1979, the United Nations adopted the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), a landmark treaty designed to identify and address barriers faced by women and girls. CEDAW has helped focus attention on genuine inequalities and has influenced laws and policies around the world. Carl Reinhold Augustsson's Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Men (CEDAM) poses an intriguing question: if discrimination is wrong regardless of who experiences it, what would a comparable international convention for men and boys look like? Rather than seeking to diminish protections for women, Augustsson applies the language, structure, and principles of CEDAW to male experiences. The result is a thought-provoking examination of areas where men and boys face disadvantages, including education, health, family law, criminal justice, workplace safety, military obligations, and social expectations. One of the book's greatest strengths is its consistency. It asks readers to apply universal human-rights principles equally, regardless of sex. Whether or not you agree with every argument, the book challenges assumptions and encourages a broader conversation about fairness, equality, and compassion... For advocates of men and boys, CEDAM offers a constructive vision: not competition between the sexes, but a society where discrimination against anyone is taken seriously. Expanding concern for human dignity to include males doesn't weaken support for women; it strengthens the principle that every person deserves equal protection, equal opportunity, and equal respect. This is an important, and original, contribution to the growing literature on men's issues and human rights...

This is a sexual assault—unknowingly captured by a mom filming her daughter’s wrestling match. Kallie didn’t know her opponent was male. But she knew something was very wrong. Today @ADFLegal helped Kallie sue the WA officials who placed gender ideology above her safety. 🧵⬇️

The Myth of Male-Only Voting Rights "Contrary to popular belief, the period of human history when men could vote but women couldn’t was relatively brief. For most of human history, no one could vote - not men, not women, not anyone."

If you still believe that perverted men won’t go to any lengths — any lengths — to gain access to girls and women for sexual assault, you are willfully blind. That’s exactly what happened in the case of Kallie Keeler, the young wrestler in Washington forced to compete against a male opponent. During the match, he assaulted her. This wasn’t some clumsy accident. It was a deliberate violation on the mat, enabled by policies that prioritize feelings and ideology over female safety and fairness. And if you think men like this wouldn’t exploit those openings, you haven’t been paying attention. Take Larry Nassar. The former “doctor” for the USA Gymnastics Team for nearly 30 years. He did the job for free. Out of his apparent “love of the sport.” He had unfettered access to young girls and women. He was respected. Trusted. The guy who could fix you up and get you back on the floor. He abused over 500 athletes. Over decades. He became a D.O. with the sole intention of abusing girls. He called it “pelvic floor therapy.” No matter what the girl came to him for — wrist pain, ankle sprain, back issue — that’s what he did. Ungloved hand inside her vagina. Or anus. Or both. He didn’t explain. He just did it. Girls covered under a sheet while he hid his body — and his erection — behind the table at just the right angle. Sometimes mothers were even in the room. He had a fancy PowerPoint to defend the “treatment.” Oh, those silly girls, they just don’t understand my advanced medical techniques. There were complaints for years. Ignored. He pretended to be kind. A pillar of the community. Asked the girls about school, favorite subjects, complimented their shoes. All during the assaults. He called himself a Christian. Did all the things. Just so he could keep assaulting young girls for decades. This is what predators do. They hide in plain sight. They build trust. They exploit positions of authority and access and respectability. They weaponize institutions that look the other way. So when a young man insists he’s a woman in order to wrestle girls, rub up against them, pin them and knows the system will defend him while calling her a bigot for objecting — you really think he won’t use that opportunity? You think he won’t shove his hand where it doesn’t belong and leave it there? You think this was accidental? He knew exactly what he was doing. He knew he’d be protected. She’d be doubted, dismissed and smeared. “Stunning and brave,” they’d say. He’s the vulnerable one! While the girl is left traumatized. Nassar didn’t invent this. He just exploited the same blind spots we’re seeing now in sports, locker rooms, shelters, and prisons. Bad men will always seek access. The question is whether we’ll stop pretending they won’t. x.com/KristenWaggoner/status…

Don't forget the popular but flawed idea that men's mental health problems are caused by traditional masculinity centreformalepsychology.com/…

For decades, society has tried to “fix” men by making them more like women. “Open up.” “Stop being so stoic.” “Your toxic masculinity is killing you.” The message is clear: men are the problem. But what if the real problem isn’t men at all? What if our feminized mental health system is the thing that’s failing the men it claims to help? I think we need to make serious changes.
