For decades, Western societies have tilted against men and boys—dismantling fatherhood, ignoring male disadvantage, and portraying masculinity as a problem to be fixed. The result is a deep social crisis: falling education outcomes for boys, disengaged young men, rising mental health struggles, plummeting birth rates, and fractured relationships between men and women.

In this timely and courageous book, David Maywald shines a clear light on the causes of this crisis and offers a vision for how to rebuild. Combining data-driven analysis with heartfelt advocacy, he calls for a new social contract: one where boys are supported, men are respected, and both sexes work together to create a healthier future for us all...

This book explores:

“There are no winners from The Relentless War on Masculinity, but we can rebuild a far healthier society if men and women collaborate for our children.”

This book challenges stereotypes, sparks honest conversation, and invites readers to move beyond blame toward understanding, respect, and renewal. It is a provocative, hopeful, and urgent call to action—for parents, teachers, policymakers, and everyone who believes that when men and boys thrive, society flourishes too.
