Hey Helen,

First off just wanted to say thank you so much for all you do. I just finished reading Men On Strike a week ago, actually!

I am a senior in college and am really looking forward to getting out, because I'm sick of the rhetoric I have to put up with. That being said, I'd like to do more things on campus to stand up for Men's Rights even though I know this may see me ostracized by some of my peers.

I was wondering what you think the best way of approaching this would be? I doubt my school would allow me to start a Mens group on campus, and I'm not sure exactly what's within my rights to act out, whether it be posting flyers, opening dialogues, etc.

Thanks again for all of your work. As someone who has watched pretty much all the older men in my family crumble in divorce court, this is an issue really close to my heart.

I didn't know what this was until I googled it. Holy fuck what the fuck

Although Hot Girls Wanted took the stance of "these poor girls," I thought what it showcased was the exact opposite. All of the girls it showed were 100% in control of their career and what they wanted to do with it. Sure, they cycled girls out, but that's the industry. The girls were never made to do anything they didn't want, and they could leave at any time. Fuck, even the dude running the house seemed nice as shit.

I've had a change in alertness/insomnia recently. To be more specific, I used to sleep very easily and heavy. I was able to fall asleep at the drop of a hat and could sleep through most noise. My difficulty was always waking.

Now, it's almost the opposite. I wake frequently and have difficulty falling back asleep. I had some awful nights where I'd lie in bed with my eyes closed all night and felt like I never fell asleep.

Did an at home sleep test that came back negative for apnea. I talked with a sleep doctor and they told me that these things can change as we age. For context, I am in my mid-30s.

I've been working on sleep hygiene and have been steadily getting better sleep but still have some bad nights.

My question is: can body clocks/sleep habits/alertness change so suddenly like this? It kind of freaks me out and I wish I could get my old superpower of easy deep sleep back.

So I've been following your channel for a few years now and I never realized we had the same life path. Grew up in MN and went to college in Chi. Now I'm in LA, so let's get together and talk about how we're the same person.
