MANN Chat: What Men's Health Crisis?

I will host this week's MANN chat, Wednesday
night (4/30), starting at 9:30 PM Eastern Time, at the href="http://www.mensactivism.org/chat.shtml">usual location. The
topic for this chat will be "What Men's Health Crisis?"  Earlier
this week, a researchers at the University of Michigan published an
article that refers to a href="http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20030429/ap_on_he_me/men_s_health_4">"silent
health crisis" in men's health, and suggests the need for href="http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/hsn/20030430/hl_hsn/the_risky_lives_of_american_men">"a
new definition of masculinity that includes greater responsibility for
oneself."  What do you think about this issue?  Are men
experiencing a "crisis" in their health?  How much of the alleged
"crisis" is due to men's individual behaviors?  How much of the
"crisis" results from the disproportionate attention the government
pays to women's health?  Join us at this week's chat to explore
these questions about the men's health "crisis."  See you there.
