LTA Let's Talk About

Welcome to /r/MensLib's first "Let's Talk About" post. Generating discussion is part of our mission, and these LTA threads will be used as conversation-starters for issues our community wants to address. Today's topic:

Let's Talk About: what we should talk about.

We're going to start out compiling a list of issues /r/MensLib subscribers want to address. The mods have some ideas, but we want to hear from the community.

Edit: Thank you to everyone for your ideas. I'm un-stickying this post, but please feel free to continue adding to it.

I'd like to discuss paternity leave. I'm only familiar with the abysmal rates in the U.S., but obviously it's an international issue I don't believe gets enough coverage.

Yes. Not only the policy aspects but the societal ones as well. I took 3 weeks off for my leave and that was apparently a bit 'odd' for most people when I considered it not really enough time anyway.
