Building on our State of American Men 2023 report, Equimundo surveyed 2,454 men, women, and nonbinary people to ask about their sense of economic stability, their anxieties, their social lives—online and off—and their mental health.
Equimundo also interviewed 32 fathers across the United States as part the State of America’s Fathers report series. These fathers were recruited to represent diversity in ethnicities, age groups, voting preferences, caregiving responsibilities, marital status, and sexualities.
The findings confirm that men in the US continue to feel a deep sense of economic anxiety and that this anxiety is related to how much they support authoritarian government, their mental health, and how much they believe in restrictive ideas about manhood.
