  • The UN Is All About Equality, Except When It Comes To Men

    11 May, 2026

    As we toast the United Nations for reaching its 80th anniversary, let’s raise a glass to its noble pursuit of global harmony, and then, perhaps, spill a little for the boys and men it seems to have quietly forgotten in its quest for gender equality.

    16 March, 2023

    ‘Equal Pay Day’ is March 14 this year. But ever since its founding in 1996, this event is based on erroneous assumptions. It is meant to illustrate the gap between men’s and women’s wages.
