Daniel de Visé, a writer for The Hill, recently discussed the United States’ crisis of masculinity. “More than 60 percent of young men are single,” he noted, “nearly twice the rate of unattached young women.” This gap, he warned, signals “a larger breakdown in the social, romantic and sexual life of the American male.” He’s right.

Males make up 49 percent of the population but 80 percent of suicides, according to the CDC. In the United States, every 13.7 minutes, a man takes his own life. Young men are four times more likely than young women to commit suicide.
What can be done? Maybe more men should seek psychological help?…
