Nowadays, Discrimination is experienced by a large proportion of men who are treated less favorably than women, and what effects it has on health. " But to what extent does being a target of discrimination — overt or subtle — affect one’s men"But to what extent does being a target of discrimination — overt or subtle — affect one’s men#humanrightstal health? “We now have decades of research showing that when people are chronically treated differently, unfairly or badly, it can have effects ranging from low self-esteem to a higher risk for developing stress-related disorders such as anxiety and depression,” says Vickie Mays, UCLA Fielding School of Public Health professor in the department of health policy and management. Mays has done research in collaboration with Susan Cochran, a professor in the department of epidemiology at UCLA, that has helped document those links. Vickie Mays and Gilbert Gee And when the mental health of one person is affected, it can produce a domino effect extending beyond that individual. “We know that when people have a psychiatric disorder, it’s not good for any of us,” Mays says. “For example, it can affect parenting — a depressed mom might not be able to interact with her child in a way that best promotes that child’s development, leaving the child more vulnerable to certain behavioral disorders. In that sense, we all suffer from the effects of discrimination.” More in link newsroom.ucla.edu/stories/discrimination-can-be-harmful-to-your-mental-health?fbclid=IwAR2KdaAkR19wu0k3ob_AiNEAhsVq07fewc2Cxw-NvQz63kQy4NfAvT08X6E#men #women #equal #father #discriminationmen #discrimination #segregation #falseaccusations #domesticviolence #childsupport #equalparenting #parentalalienation #divorce #fraud #falseaccusationsrape #fatherless #childsharecustody #fahtermatter #law #brokenlaw #familylaw #court #depression, #depressionafterdivorce #Divorce #effectsofdivorce #health #masculinity #mentalhealth #suicidal #suicide #equalpay #equalwork #menrights #humanrights

The 2011 State of Men's Health in Europe report by the European Commission found the following reasons for greater male than female mortality, but since that report, nothing has been done to ensure that men's lives are equated with women's lives. According to an article in Men’s Health Forum (MHF), data from a massive study reported in the State of Men’s Health in Europe, shows that European men’s health is dismal compared to European women. MHF listed the key findings from the Report’s press release: Although men are living longer than ever before, the current decline in births means that there will be a huge reduction of men of working age across the EU-27 in the coming decades. Over 50% of premature deaths amongst men are avoidable. Men are less likely than women to engage in routine or preventative health checks. Even though there have been big reductions in cardiovascular morbidity and death amongst men, Cardio-Vascular disease is still one of the biggest risks to health and the principle cause of death in the older population. Among men, prostate cancer has become the most diagnosed cancer in Europe. Testicular cancer, despite effective treatment, still remains the first cause of cancer death among young males (20-35 years). Men’s depression and other mental health problems are under detected and under treated in all European countries. This is partly due to men being less likely to seek help. “The European Men’s Health Forum is warning that unless a fundamental change is made in the whole approach taken to men’s health, the EU will suffer both socially and economically.” The Report shows twice as many men of working age (16-64) die than women, with some 630,000 male and 300,000 female deaths across the EU-27 countries in this age group.

" Key findings from the Lost Dads FBSD study reveal: Over 40% (41.9%) of men who approach support services during family breakdown express suicidal thoughts. This may have a key link to the suicide being the leading cause of death for men under 50. For a disproportionate number of men as fathers, the experience following family breakdown can simply be too much. These experiences are shaped by negative stereotypes about fatherhood and masculinity, which limit men’s ability to seek and receive effective support. Negotiating co-parenting arrangements, particularly within the family court system, has a profoundly negative experience for fathers. They expressed despair in their battles for time with their children who were sometimes being ‘weaponised’ against them. Sometimes, parental alienating behaviours were identified, like manipulation of the child’s opinion of the male parent. This has severe consequences for both fathers and their children".
