What do you people say?"

More anti-male junk science propagation from the BBC here. Excerpt:

A UK expert said the fall was nature's way of ensuring men behaved in a 'civilised' and non-aggressive way around newborn offspring.

*sigh*...

federico writes "Do you think that letting a baby die is murder? Infanticide?! Think again! Obviusly is not if you're a woman, specifically the mother.

Incredibly, Justice Terrance Clackson said, "While this is about loss of life, this is not about murder," and also noted that Anderwald's crimes involved deception but not violence. The article contiues stating that "After [passing out] she woke up, she put the baby in a garbage bag beside her bed, had a bath and watched TV" and "Co-workers said she was happy [the day after]". Of course the tearjerker line follows as the deception manual prescribe: "I wish I could change the past and bring Angela back," she said, using the name she gave the child."

Dittohd writes "Verdict - $46,200. I'm sure it's not what a man would have been stuck with had the roles been reversed but it's a lot better than nothing. Not surprisingly, the jury foreman said the verdict was not a slam-dunk, even with a mostly male jury. Also, the woman tried to get out of any blame by blaming the man. Gee, what a surprise!"

Read this. Now ask yourself, "Why aren't they being charged with lewd conduct as well?" Two men sure would have been.

Thundercloud. writes "Well I just saw on YAHOO news that Abercrombie and Fitch have folded, because of the boycott led by some irate girls and women.
They caved just like that. I was surprised to see A and F try to use the old "But it's meant to be humorous" excuse. They usually only try that on guys who complain of sexism. Well maybe these gals know how we guys feel, now."

Anonymous User writes "So men in Scotland can't get the best drug for treatment of prostate cancer because it is too expensive and not 'cost-effective'.

Imagine a drug for the treatment of breast cancer not being made available to women for the same reasons.

The program Breaking the Silence has been widely criticized for bias and inaccuracy in depicting a world in which the only abusive parents are fathers. The program amounts to a libel that dads who seek child custody are wife-beaters.

MSN surprised me with this. There's some of the usual anti-male stereotyping and so on, but there is an air of sympathy here that is unusual for MSN when it comes to men. Excerpt:

The very qualities that propel them to success can arise from an extremely dark place in the psyche. The tendency to build their identity on achievement makes a downturn unbearable. The modern American corporation is structured to give CEOs wealth and power but also crushing isolation. What's more, there's something in the nature of success that makes being at the top dramatically different psychological terrain from getting there. And the American dream that wealth transmutes success into happiness always ends in bitter disappointment. "You're the same you, just in posher surroundings," says psychotherapist Terence Real, head of the Real Institute in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and author of I Don't Want To Talk About It: Overcoming the Secret Legacy of Male Depression.

Well, it's unavailable to the general public (NYT print subscribers can see it on-line though if they sign up for the extra service), but our very own Maureen Dowd's recent woe-is-me piece appears in the Nov. 6, 2005 New York Times Magazine. So if you can, have a look; it includes a pic of our gal sitting on a bar stool, in black stockings and heels no less -- waiting for someone to buy her a drink, I guess.

My how the people change as the years go by... what would the Maureen of 20 years ago say of herself today?

mens_issues writes "Reuters reports about a circumcision rite in Senegal in which a mythical figure called "Kankouran" guards the boys being circumcised from the village women. This is spinned to make it seem that since women are being "excluded" from this ritual it must be "discrimination" against them. The irony is that the article also mentions that female circumcision was banned in 1999, but does question the fact that it is still done to boys.

The article is here.

Evil White Male Oppressor writes "
"When this was first in the paper, it was almost a joke, because of the role reversal," prosecutor Cornelius Kelly said. "It conjures up thoughts of, 'Oh, that's a young man's dream.' But as we stand here today, we still don't know what damage this will have on the young boy's self-esteem, his interpersonal relationships. We don't know what damage the young girl suffered."

The article goes on to say... "Defense attorney Donald Papcsy said Imre had been raped and has a mental problem that made it hard for her to understand that what she did was wrong. "She's not a wicked person," he said."
