Overview
- Dana White, speaking on Katie Miller’s podcast this week, said public talk of men’s mental health is “bulls—” and called such disclosures unattractive.
- He argued it is a man’s job to be the provider and make women feel safe, and he mocked concerns about so-called toxic masculinity.
- He added that young men feel displaced after COVID and what he called the woke era, saying today’s climate differs from when he grew up.
- Authors Brad Stulberg and Ramit Sethi and comics writer Scott Snyder criticized the stance, citing high male suicide rates and the value of seeking help.
- Coverage diverged, with Fox News highlighting sympathy for “displaced” young men and MS NOW tying the remarks—on a show hosted by Stephen Miller’s wife—to MAGA-style performative masculinity and White’s broader influence through the UFC.
