'Rebecca Walker explained her family feud for The Mail Online, a personal essay blasting her mother's lifelong hatred of motherhood.
"The truth is that I very nearly missed out on becoming a mother - thanks to being brought up by a rabid feminist who thought motherhood was about the worst thing that could happen to a woman.
You see, my mum taught me that children enslave women. I grew up believing that children are millstones around your neck, and the idea that motherhood can make you blissfully happy is a complete fairytale ... Feminism has much to answer for denigrating men and encouraging women to seek independence whatever the cost to their families."'

'Yesterday, journalist Melissa Kite became the latest woman to publicly trash men in a sexist, undeserving rant - this time, by saying those exercising a human right not to become fathers were 'selfish'.
Just days after champagne socialist Diane Abbott claimed that modern masculinity is Viagra-chomping, whiskey-swigging homophobia - even for the millions of men who are gay, Kite jumped on the bandwagon with her own sweeping statements.
In a finger-pointing, foot-stamping article for MailOnline she said men 'do not always play fair in matters of fertility', adding that they 'increasingly behave with terrible selfishness when it comes to giving up their bachelor lifestyles'.
She then added that men who date women without immediately signing up for parenthood are committing some sort of 'fraud'.'

'The public relations officer for the Massachusetts Trial Court informed us that the task force continues its work reviewing the child support guidelines.
Currently, Chief Justice Paula Carey is leading the review of the child support guidelines and serves on the Governor’s Working Group on Child-Centered Family Laws. On July 16th, Chief Justice Paula Carey will take over as Chief Justice of the Trial Court for a five year term replacing Judge Robert Mulligan who plans to retire.
It is the Chief Justice of the Trial Court who has final approval for the work of the child support guidelines review task force, as well as the recommendations for openings within the trial court, including the vacancy of Chief Justice of the Probate and Family Court created by Judge Paula Carey’s promotion.'
Kia Motors seems to think they will sell more cars to women if their ads include a little female-on-male abuse. In the following ad they've made the woman a human-looking robot. We think it's offensive, whether she's a robot or not.
Please contact Kia Motors today. Use whichever link below is the most convenient.
Tell them you won't be buying any of their cars as long as they try to sell them with "humorous violence."
On behalf of every victim of violence, thank you.

'(TEL AVIV) - One subject we cover frequently at Salem-News.com is the stark reality of circumcision of boys and girls. Our articles examine the physical and emotional implications, the modifications of laws regulating this practice, and the cultural changes and developments that are raising awareness in leaps and bounds.

'By the late Eighties, it was glaringly obvious that families were suffering a chronic crisis of identity and self-confidence.
There were more and more divorces and single parents — along with mounting evidence that family disintegration and the subsequent creation of step-families or households with no father figure at all did incalculable damage to children.
‘Too many children lack a consistent mother or father figure,’ researchers told me.
Poverty, the Left’s habitual excuse, could not be the culprit since middle-class children were also not receiving the parental attention they required.
...
From their research, they concluded that children in fractured families tend to suffer more ill-health, do less well at school, are more likely to be unemployed, more prone to criminal behaviour and to repeat as adults the same cycle of unstable parenting.

'Almost a quarter of girls whose fathers were absent during early childhood suffer depression as teenagers, a report says.
Some 23 per cent will show symptoms such as sadness or severe tiredness later in life if their parent leaves before they turn five, researchers found.
It makes them almost 50 per cent more likely to have future mental health problems than older girls, confirming previous studies that suggest pre-schoolers cope badly with break-ups because they are less likely to have a support network of friends and other family members.'

'A Syracuse woman who reported a rape in mid-March by an Indiana State Police officer, had filed similar reports in 2002 and 2009 with Syracuse Police.
Jama K. Brown, 33, West Pickwick Drive, Syracuse, was arrested May 15 and charged with false informing claiming an Indiana State Police officer raped her. The name she provided to police was fictional.
Information began unfolding on March 18 when an officer from Indiana State Police Bremen Post contacted Sgt. Kathy Robbins with the Fort Wayne post, asking her to contact Brown. Brown told the trooper she had been the victim of a sexual assault by an officer, but did not wish to speak to anyone out of the Bremen post. The investigator was told Brown had also claimed she was stopped by a Kosciusko County Sheriff’s Department deputy a few days after the alleged assault telling her to leave the state officer alone.'

'Flatulent, dirty, couch-bound, unkempt, and unevolved: It’s Samsung’s new view of men.
A new ad for Samsung televisions portrays men as dirty slobs, just a half step up from cavemen -- and it has the more evolved members of the male species crying foul.
“That's probably one of the most vile adverts I've ever seen,” wrote one outraged user on a Reddit forum dedicated to men’s rights. “This isn't the normal IV drip of laughing at men; this is simply mainlining outright contempt.”
“Are they trying to alienate their primary consumer base?” another person asked.'

'UNITED States Ambassador to Zambia Mark Storella has urged traditional leaders in Zambia to help sensitise their subjects and other citizens on the importance of male circumcision.
Mr Storella said male circumcision was important in reducing the spread of HIV/AIDS.
He was speaking on Tuesday afternoon when his delegation, which included United States Ambassador to Zimbabwe Bruce Wharton, paid a courtesy call on Senior Chief Mukuni in Kazungula District in Southern Province.
“Your Royal Highness, we are trying to support male circumcision and we think it is important that traditional leaders actively participate in this campaign.
“So far, Chief Mumena of North-Western Province is a big advocate of male circumcision,” he said.'
