While it's great to see such a comprehensive plan out in the world, this is still too heavily focused on the role and responsibility of women and services to respond. We need a plan focused on male perpetration, geared toward upstream prevention & at its very core, accountability

One of the most sensible takes on ‘cancel culture’ I’ve seen. Sensible, honest, smart. I’m posting the video directly as Times Radio tweeted it with a clickbait and somewhat misleading headline that unintentionally confirmed his point. More of this please.

Older men may be at a higher risk of suicide if they:
•Are widowed/divorced,
•Have a history of depression & anxiety,
•Live with a chronic illness,
•Live alone or in a nursing home,
•Live with comorbid medical/neurological illness,
•Misuse alcohol.

Dr. Zac Seidler Everymind Elizabeth Paton I find the application of TWs curious at times. I personally don’t think that all content needs it - especially when people know you are an organisation that speaks on these issues. Everymind doesn’t use them. We only communicate about mental health and suicide prevention.

Dr. Zac Seidler Everymind Elizabeth Paton In the same way adding a helpline at the end does not give you license to do as you like w the content, a TW should not be an excuse to include content that could actually be harmful to some (e.g. method). I’d prefer people ensure content they produce is safe, non stigmatising.

Matthew Tyler, ED of The Men’s Project, will join White Ribbon Aus, Movember Australia, The Man Cave and ACON in a webinar about supporting young men to take responsibility for promoting gender equality.
