bandersnatch writes "From This is London, Scotland Yard today revealed it has been unable to trace all but two of 300 black boys aged four to seven reported missing from school in a three-month period. Child welfare experts say the number highlights the scale of the trade in children brought to Britain as domestic servants and covers for benefit fraud. Detectives asked each London local education authority to give them details of black boys aged four to seven reported missing from school between July and September 2001. It emerged 300 had vanished, 299 from Africa and one from the Caribbean. *gasp* You mean it's only not young girls being trafficked? Imagine that!"

Ed.: Also this is covered here.

Kyo writes "Japan's "women-only train car" fad is covered by the Wall Street Journal here, with allusions to other women-only venues such as sports clubs, hotels, and even internet cafes. The journalist is surprisingly even-handed, presenting valid reasons why the trains discriminate against men along with a quote from a male-train-rider activist group."

Indiana Jones writes "Wow.... [In Italy] Men must pay damages to women if they don't offer them sex.

Now, if its the other way around.....men forcing their wife into sex, he would lose everything in court."

AngryMan writes "This article from the BBC covers a new report into international forced labour. I'm sure we're all opposed to slavery of every kind, but the article concentrates solely on prostitution. If you download the report (PDF on the right), turn to page 12 and look at the pie chart, the report identifies 3 categories of forced labour: economic, military and sexual. Of these 3, sexual is the least significant. It's interesting that most forced workers and soldiers are male, but these get ignored. The BBC concentrates solely on women. The article turns this report into another attack on male sexuality. The implication is that all prostitutes are slaves. Thanks once again BBC."

Dittohd writes "In Tennessee, the maximum sentence for statutory rape is only two years? Would this maximum sentence be the same if the gender roles were reversed in this situation? Is this situation getting to feel like an epidemic to you? I wonder if this is really new or just women being afforded a taste of equal responsibility along with those so-called equal rights."

CJ writes "Not finding actual issues of violence or assault to deal with, this university's Womyn's Center has worked with campus police to develop a stalking policy, has just published an informational brochure for students on stalking. Here is a fine example of Marxist feminist paranoia propaganda at work; every incoming freshman is lectured about stalking issues, and simple “looks” now constitute stalking behavior, and students are held accountable for actions that may or may not be stalking behavior,and as we all now know, allegation alone is sufficient evidence to ruins one's life path."

The lace curtain is weakening! Both Ray and Tumescent had comments on this site that were quoted, (althought Tumescent wasn't named), in Sunday's edition of the Star Tribune. This refreshing article about the double standards in the Willbanks incident, (AKA, the runaway bride), talks about the reaction from men on the net.


"Does anyone else in this country see a pattern of lying by females about crimes against them?" asked a man named Ray in an online news posting."


"One man [Tumescent] predicted Monday that "now it's time for all the psychobabblers to come out of the woodwork to give us a laundry list of 'issues' and 'syndromes' to excuse this spineless Cinderella's actions. Maybe all the desperate housewives out there will see her on 'Oprah' real soon.""

We're making waves guys, keep it up!

Indiana Jones writes "Feminist and unfair TITLE IX already grants American women more money and scholarships than men, so what does
this have to happen??

Furthermore, the university has 5 more female sports team than men. Clearly, this march benefitting women-only sports should be illegal since Title IX grants men and women EQUAL oppertunity. Clearly, if women gets more sports money its good, when men gets more sports money its considered to be gender discrimination."

Roy writes "The NY Times Magazine today published a major 10-page article on the Father's Rights Movement, covering both U.K. and U.S. groups and issues: The Fathers' Crusade

The piece is on whole a balanced overview of the movement of fathers fighting for more fairness in child custody decisions and in the Family Courts.

Lots of quotes from men leading the F4J campaigns, speaking in their own voices rather than being "spun" by fluff reporters."

mens_issues writes "Former Broncos player Reggie Rivers wrote a condescending one-sided anti-male article in the Denver Post titled "Good news, guys: It's back to those good ol' sexist days." This was spurred by the rejection of an emergency contraception bill in the Colorado State House. While I agree that this action was misguided, Rivers makes the leap to saying that men want to keep women under control by keeping them pregnant.

Rob writes "Fantastic news! British electorate today rejected a female candidate imposed in a constituency from an "all woman shortlist" for the United Kingdom's General Election. Peter Law resigned in protest from the Labour Party, stood as an independent and caused one of the biggest reverses in UK Election history by winning one of the safest Labour seats in the UK. 20,000 folk agreed with him. Let's hope this is the start of some common sense. And an acknowledgement that whether in politics, the work-place or just real life, women compete purely on their own merits without any help from the PC brigade."

Ray writes "This male bashing event apparently injures some men and helps spread feminist propaganda about sexual assault and gender violence. Here is brave site that provides valuable information to refute feminist propaganda, and it dares to ask Why Would A Woman Lie About Rape? Here you will find honest information that is not available at male bashing marches."
