Abstract

He created Newsofx.com, an online portal which promotes and highlights men's issues and which advocates for true men's equality. Along with Alan Millard, he co-authored Men’s Rights are Human Rights Too: A Manifesto. The authors will grant Men’s Rights Associations the right to copy sections from the manifesto if they are given proper credit.
