IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE BIASED AGAINST MEN? THE RESEARCH SAYS YES. A growing body of peer-reviewed research reveals something that’s getting very little attention: leading AI systems frequently favour females over equally qualified males. Consider the evidence: 🔹 Moral double standards: Fulgu and Capraro (2024) found that GPT models judged harming males more acceptable than equivalent harm to females in certain hypothetical moral dilemmas. 🔹 Hiring discrimination: David Rozado (2026) tested 22 leading LLMs across 70 professions and more than 30,000 simulated hiring decisions. AI selected equally qualified female applicants 57% of the time, compared with 43% for males. 🔹 Relationship conflicts: An EMNLP study (2024) found that LLMs consistently favoured women over men when adjudicating interpersonal disputes. 🔹 Criminal justice:A 2026 study found that AI models recommended harsher sentences for male perpetrators harming women than female perpetrators harming men in otherwise comparable domestic violence scenarios. 🔹 Systematic overcorrection: Wang et al. (2024) examined ten LLMs and found seven demonstrated significant hiring bias against men in at least one industry. Researchers explicitly raised concerns about "reverse gender hiring bias and overdebiasing." 🔹 Female overrepresentation: Chen et al. (2025) examined AI-generated stories across 106 occupations, finding women substantially overrepresented, frequently accounting for 65–80% or more of generated characters. Why is this happening? AI results depend upon the data and training that they have digested. By attempting to correct the perceived historical discrimination against women, we have inadvertently introduced new discrimination against men through training, reinforcement learning and safety alignment. Equality cannot mean correcting discrimination against one sex by introducing discrimination against the other. As AI increasingly influences employment, education, justice and public discourse, these findings demand independent scrutiny, transparent auditing and genuinely sex-neutral standards. Men and boys deserve equal treatment from Artificial Intelligence. Not preferential treatment. Equal treatment.

IS IT TIME TO PUSH BACK AGAINST THE NORMALISATION OF MISANDRY? Across Australia, Britain, America, Canada and other English-speaking societies, contempt for men and boys has become disturbingly acceptable in parts of our culture. Man-bashing is marketed as empowerment. Male incompetence is entertainment. Masculinity is portrayed as toxic. And prejudice against males is too often excused as humour, feminism or social justice. Some writers, performers and commentators have built commercially successful brands around provocative criticism of men. Publishers, broadcasters and entertainment platforms have helped bring these messages to large audiences. Consider 20 examples spanning explicit misandry, provocative titles, male-directed ridicule and contested portrayals of masculinity: 1. Clementine Ford — Boys Will Be Boys, I Don't, and notorious jokes about killing men. 2. Pauline Harmange — I Hate Men, explicitly defending misandry. 3. Suzanna Danuta Walters — "Why Can't We Hate Men?", published in The Washington Post. 4. Blythe Roberson — How to Date Men When You Hate Men. 5. Mona Eltahawy — The Seven Necessary Sins for Women and Girls, including provocative rhetoric about violence. 6. Kathy Lette — Men: A User's Guide, featuring male-directed stereotypes. 7. Sabrina Carpenter — "Manchild" and Man's Best Friend, commercially successful male-incompetence satire. 8. Kate Manne — Entitled: How Male Privilege Hurts Women. 9. Hannah Gadsby — Nanette and controversial commentary about supposedly "good men". 10. Chelsea Handler — Commercial comedy frequently ridiculing men. 11. Amy Schumer — Gender-based stereotypes in Inside Amy Schumer. 12. Katherine Ryan — Stand-up comedy about male shortcomings. 13. Iliza Shlesinger — Comedy featuring male-female stereotypes. 14. Michelle Wolf — Provocative gender and sexual satire. 15. Ashnikko — "STUPID", "Daisy" and aggressive anti-patriarchal imagery. 16. Eliza Clark — Boy Parts, a novel featuring female objectification and violence against men. 17. Michael Flood — Academic research on masculinity, male violence and gender relations. 18. Laurie Penny — Bitch Doctrine and Sexual Revolution. 19. Jessica Valenti — Commercial feminist commentary on male entitlement and political power. 20. Chidera Eggerue — How to Get Over a Boy and relationship-focused feminist branding. These examples are not equivalent. Some involve explicit hostility towards men; others involve satire, fictional characters, structural criticism or legitimate challenges to harmful behaviour. But we must ask some uncomfortable questions. What happens when boys repeatedly hear that masculinity is defective? When fathers and husbands are routinely ridiculed? When male vulnerability is dismissed? When schools approach boys primarily as potential perpetrators rather than young people deserving encouragement? Such messages are undermining relationships, parenting, educational engagement, mutual respect and boys' self-worth... Equality must mean rejecting sexism in BOTH directions. We should celebrate positive masculinity, responsible fatherhood, healthy relationships and the inherent dignity of every boy and man. Are English-speaking societies finally ready to challenge misandry with the same seriousness that we challenge misogyny? #Misandry #MensRights #BoysMatter #PositiveMasculinity #GenderEquality

THE STATE OF MAN: THE ABC'S NARROW, IDEOLOGICAL VIEW OF MASCULINITY I've watched all three episodes of the ABC's The State of Man, presented by Marc Fennell. My verdict is that it's a huge missed opportunity for Australian boys and men. The state of the manosphere is NOT the state of man. The ABC concentrates on provocative influencers, misogyny, radicalisation, algorithms and supposedly problematic masculine attitudes. But where are the ordinary Australian men? The fathers, workers, volunteers, mentors and community leaders? And where is the compassion for the enormous disadvantages facing males? 🔹 Boys are twice as likely to experience developmental vulnerabilities, when entering primary school. 🔹 Boys trail girls in literacy, school completion and university participation. 🔹 More than three-quarters of Australian suicide deaths are male. 🔹 Men experience four years shorter life expectancy and account for 96% of workplace fatalities. 🔹 Male victims of violence, family breakdown, homelessness and loneliness receive far too little attention. These are fundamental dimensions of the state of Australian men. Yet the ABC almost completely ignores them... There are a few positives. The series exposes genuine harms from social media, exploitative influencers and commercial manipulation. Its treatment of rites of passage, mentorship, and technology-free experiences is particularly constructive. But the overall framing is selective, sensationalist and heavily influenced by leftist ideology as well as progressive gender politics. The importance of fatherhood and the costs of fatherlessness are both sorely missing. The double standards are glaring. - Masculinity and the mansphere are interrogated. Toxic females and anti-social feminism aren't. - Misogyny is investigated. Misandry is conveniently ignored. - Male wrongdoing is amplified. Male suffering and achievements are marginalised. - Traditional masculine values are treated suspiciously, while feminist assumptions escape equivalent scrutiny. This is all classic Gamma Bias, to be expected from leftists, feminists, and the ABC. Even more concerning is the political context. 📅 August 2026: University of Melbourne and Monash University publish research on misogyny, extremism and schools, with serious questions about their methodology and interpretations. 📅 13 October: The ABC premieres The State of Man. 📅 15 October: Labor introduces its Digital Duty of Care Bill, proposing stronger regulation of online platforms. The thematic alignment and timing is remarkable... The State of Man concludes by giving prominence to eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant and extreme feminist activist Chanel Contos, reinforcing the emphasis on changing algorithms and controlling online expression. But who decides which opinions are harmful? When does criticism of feminism become classified as misogyny? When does legitimate political disagreement become extremism? And why aren't equivalent concerns about hostility towards males receiving any attention? We should protect children from genuine online harm. But we must also protect freedom of expression, scientific integrity and the dignity of both sexes. The ABC should have drawn much more extensively on male psychology, rigorous evidence and the lived experiences of ordinary men. Instead, it has produced something closer to The Harms of Social Media than a comprehensive examination of masculinity. Boys need empowerment, opportunity, positive role models and compassion; not another institutional lecture about what's supposedly wrong with males... The documentary Australia still needs would ask: How can we genuinely value boys and men, recognise their disadvantages, celebrate their contributions and support their flourishing alongside girls and women? That's the state of man worth investigating, and the ABC must be held accountable for the continued misuse of taxpayers' money. #TheStateOfMan #ABC #MensHealth #BoysEducation #Masculinity #GenderEquality #FreedomOfSpeech

THE UNITED NATIONS HAS A SERIOUS SEXISM PROBLEM. IT HAS BECOME BIGOTED AND HAS LOST ALL MORAL CREDIBILITY. In 1945, the United Nations Charter reaffirmed faith in the “equal rights of men and women.” The Universal Declaration of Human Rights subsequently proclaimed that “all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.” Eighty-one years later, what happened to that noble commitment? Research published by Dr James Nuzzo in March 2026 exposes an extraordinary double standard: ♀️ 15 UN-recognised international days dedicated to women and girls. ♂️ ZERO dedicated to men and boys. Not even International Men's Day, first celebrated in 1999 and marked last year in more than 110 countries... The UN recognises days for bees, tuna, snow leopards, asteroids and basketball. Yet it cannot formally recognise a single day celebrating half of humanity!! This isn't an isolated oversight. It reflects a wider institutional culture in which gender equality too often means advocating for females while overlooking the suffering, disadvantages and contributions of males. Consider the global evidence: 🔹 Men die approximately FIVE YEARS younger than women. While in seven countries, men die over TEN YEARS sooner. 🔹 Around 80% of homicide victims are male. 🔹 Men account for the overwhelming majority of workplace fatalities. 🔹 Male suicide rates are two, three, and sometimes four times those of females. 🔹 UNESCO estimates 140 million boys are out of school. 🔹 Men constitute approximately 93% of the world's prison population. 🔹 Fathers face serious barriers to equal participation in their children's lives. Where is the comparable international urgency, compassion and institutional commitment? Why does disadvantage become a gender equality emergency when it affects females, but so often a matter of individual responsibility when it affects males? The UN has undoubtedly made important contributions to women's rights, humanitarian protection and international development. Those achievements deserve recognition. But they do not excuse ideological selectivity, institutional double standards or the marginalisation of men and boys. An organisation claiming to represent all humanity must not become an activist institution advancing one sex's interests while treating the other as a worthless afterthought. This isn't neutrality. It isn't impartiality. And it's certainly not Genuine Gender Equality. As Chair of the International Council for Men and Boys, I am proud that our upcoming Global State of Men and Boys Report 2026 examines 12 major disparities affecting males, drawing on evidence from more than 50 countries. Our approach is straightforward: recognise disadvantage wherever it exists, respect the dignity of every human being, and pursue evidence-based solutions for everyone... We are also working constructively toward UN recognition of International Men's Day. The UN should reform its gender institutions, abandon ideological one-sidedness, and restore public confidence through equal compassion, accountability and respect for both sexes. Supporting men and boys doesn't diminish women and girls, in fact it strengthens families and communities. Human rights are not a zero-sum game. The Future is Everyone. #UnitedNations #GenderEquality #InternationalMensDay #MensRights #HumanRights #MenAndBoys #GenuineGenderEquality #ICMB @un @menandboysnet
