It's been nearly a month since Sen. Mitch McConnell was hospitalized. He hasn't been seen in public since, and his office has offered few details about why he was admitted or when he might return. This is not the first time this year a member of Congress has been absent for weeks with little explanation. There's a debate on Capitol Hill about what lawmakers owe the public about their health or fitness for office.
In 1990, Gallup found that one-third of men reported having 10 or more close friends. By 2021, according to the Survey Center on American Life, just 13 percent did. The number of men who said they had no close friends rose from 3 percent in 1990 to 17 percent last year.
Stephen Parker had a relationship with his male best friend in high school. After graduation, they went to different colleges and lost touch. Stephen had a panic attack at 20 because he was depressed about the loss of his relationship. He asked his housemate, Bob, for help. Bob knew that Stephen was gay.
