Men are getting crushed by today’s unemployment crisis more than women, according to a report from the American Enterprise Institute and written by Dr. Mark J. Perry.

Perry, professor of economics and finance in the School of Management at the Flint campus of the University of Michigan, finds that the unemployment rate is higher for men than women in the aftermath of the recession.

In addition, the report shows that men have lost 219 jobs for every 100 lost by women since late 2007. And last month, 10.5% of men were unemployed while 8.6% of women were jobless.
