This is a complex and controversial topic, but one that deserves a clear, evidence-based perspective. Why has loneliness been declared a global health crisis? How the global loneliness epidemic differs from the male loneliness epidemic  Are men actually the lonelier gender?  The role of patriarchy, the manosphere, scapegoating, and in-group/out-group psychology  The consequences  for both men and women Healthy, proactive approaches to tackling loneliness in society  Plus, so much more!
