Yes, this. There are genuine social imbalances affecting men. This kind of attitude just enables people to write them off as misogynists. https://twitter.com/apesaysno/status/960854286417743873 …

I find it increasingly difficult to publicly express my worry about male suicide rates lest I be judged a misogynist when the two aren’t related at all in my mind.

Why not just say you're worried about suicide in general? It sounds MRA because this is usually what MRAs say and MRAs are usually misogynist.

Because, its very much a male problem. Huge imbalance. It does not sound MRA at all to acknowledge that. It's probably key to addressing it.

Well she mentioned that people are perceiving her that way, so in her case it seems to be true. But if you want to frame the problem that way I'm not into language policing. From my personal experience this is what MRAs say.

But if a worry no-one else is saying it, then, isn't it? Perhaps that explains both the existence of MRAs and the prevalence of male suicide.

Doesn't it seem more likely there's some kind of evolutionary psychological reason rather than something that feminists have done? Suicide is greater all over the world for men. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_differences_in_suicide …

Yes, more proactive generally. THis doesn't mean we can't do anything about it and should call people who care about it MRAs.
