“The phrase “childless man” is about as common as “working father.” In our culture there’s an implicit priority of motherhood for all women, while men are simply thought of as men and not “potential parents.” Interestingly, though, a new study finds that men are much more emotionally distraught by not having children than women are. The research—presented at the British Sociological Association in London on Wednesday—was based on a survey conducted on men and women who are not parents. Of the men and women in that group who wanted to have children, 50% of the men had “experienced isolation” from being childless as opposed to just 27% of women. In fact, across the board the men were more negatively affected than the women, experiencing depression, anger, sadness and jealousy more frequently because they did not have kids.” — Childless Men Are More Depressed and Sad Than Childless Women
“Put simply, Brill says, these bills tell us there’s no free market in our healthcare system, that hospitals set their rates knowing that someone in pain or in fear for his or her life is not going to ask to see the price list first before agreeing to some test or treatment. It’s no wonder that 60 percent of our fellow Americans who file for personal bankruptcy each year do so because of medical costs.” — Health Care: The New American Sadism by Charles Simic
