Key Equimundo Publications Focused on the United States

The #MeToo movement sparked a cultural shift through which harassment and violence will no longer be relegated to silence. However, sexual harassment and assault remain pervasive, and the topic,

5 Things We Should Stop Telling Our Boys if We Want to Raise Feminist Men

Recently, a Facebook post went viral, comparing a Boys’ Life magazine cover to a Girls’ Life cover side by side. On the left, Girls’ Life features a young girl in full makeup surrounded by headlines like, “Wake up pretty!” while on the right, Boys’ Life leads with, “Explore your Future,” and an illustrative collage featuring a laptop, beaker, microphone, and more.

Well, Are Millennial Men Feminist or Not?

One might be tempted to think we women have made it. We have, after all, a woman running for president, the NBA’s “Lean In Together” campaign for gender equality, and Bud Light “femvertising”—that is, attempting to use feminism to sell a product. One would be forgiven for thinking, at the very least, that we’re closer than any other generation to seeing real gender equality.

Why Dads Should Demand Paid Leave

When Mark Zuckerberg takes paternity leave, the world takes note. While we applaud his ability to “lean out,” we don’t generally talk about the support that a father – or any parent – needs to do it (and just how many don’t have it).

Why America’s Fathers Aren’t Living Up to Expectations

For many American fathers, there’s still a disconnect between what they want, and what they think they can do. They may want to be equal partners, to share the joys and responsibilities of parenting with their partner, but a triple combination of antiquated gender norms, sclerotic workplace culture and lack of family-friendly policies knock that choice off the table.

How Mr. Mom Became a Stay at Home Dad

My colleague had a baby and her husband decided to take a 12-month leave from his job to stay home with the newborn. We, her co-workers, were all surprised, if not shocked. That was nearly 20 years ago. We likely would have been as surprised today. And we wouldn’t have been alone in our American reaction, as we are one of a handful of countries without mandatory paid leave for either parent.

First-ever State of America’s Fathers Report Reveals a Tale of Two Fatherhoods in the United States

Taking Global Lessons to the United States

In the U.S., women’s health rights have recently faced numerous setbacks in the Supreme Court, women continue to bear the brunt of unpaid care work for families,

This Is the State Of Working Fathers in the U.S.

Fatherhood is in the news, whether it’s high-profile dads or renewed pushes for paid leave in the District of Columbia, New York City, and beyond. For those of us urging equality between men and women in the workplace, the discussion is rightly focusing on whether men are, should be, or even can do half of the daily caring for children and housework. But elsewhere, in our court system, custody wars continue, and state child-welfare systems spend millions getting nonresident fathers to pay child support. That leads to a lot of strong opinions about fathers and modern fatherhood. But what’s really happening?

Helping Dads Care

Equimundo and Dove Men+Care partnered to carry out a pioneering study, surveying over 1,700 men and women aged 25 to 45 in the United States, on what

The Tale of Two Fatherhoods

Earlier this year, several major corporations sponsored a night in one of the Smithsonian’s flagship museums in Washington, D.C., for more than 400 “daddy bloggers.” Their motivation? Fathers are now as likely as mothers to be deciding what food, toys, children’s books and clothing to buy.
