'The heartbroken dad started to put the pieces together, realizing there were a few red flags at the beginning of the couple’s three-year relationship.

“She told me that she was pregnant very early on in our relationship which I thought was odd,” he explained. “But she insisted that it was mine.”

His girlfriend, 27, reportedly acknowledged that she was “casually seeing people” before things got serious with the Redditor.

“She may not even know who the biological father is, so I feel like bringing it up would just cause problems,” he shrugged.'

If there is anything to be learned from the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard trial, it is that it is too simplistic to assume that only men are offenders and only women are victims.

Most essays about domestic violence center around the “Man Bad, Woman Good” mindset. Rather than taking another spin on the faulty and outdated Duluth Domestic Violence Power & Control Wheel (which assumes that all victims must be female and all perpetrators must be male), it is time to examine other considerations.

There are many more issues in intimate partner violence (IPV) than power and control. Domestic violence often occurs among couples who are poor and those with less education. Some couples simply lack an ability to resolve a conflict or to avoid escalation. One or both partners may suffer from depression, anxiety, or immaturity. There are other factors.

'"FOX & Friends" co-host Lawrence Jones’ new book, "American Man: Speaking The Truth About The War On Masculinity," aims to combat the liberal notion that masculinity is toxic, and puts a spotlight on the importance of crucial role traditional men play in a thriving society.

"When I wrote ‘American Man,’ the purpose was to defend manhood," Jones told Fox News Digital as he headed to the airport for an exclusive interview with Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson.

Jones, who joined "FOX & Friends" on a permanent basis last month after previously serving as the hit morning show’s enterprise reporter, has spent years traveling across America for Fox News Channel, and he’s noticed an alarming trend.

"Manhood is under attack right now from society," he said, adding that "American Man: Speaking The Truth About The War On Masculinity" is not an attack on women.'

'There seem to be as many interpretations of what “toxic masculinity” means as there are uses of the term.

Some believe it’s a way to criticise what they see as specific negative behaviour and attitudes often associated with men. Others, such as broadcaster Piers Morgan, claim that media interest in toxic masculinity is part of a “woke culture” that aims to emasculate men. Others believe toxic masculinity is a fundamental part of manhood.

My research into working-class young men in south Wales shows how masculinity is changing. Some men remain hostile to the notion of toxic masculinity and see the term as a vehicle for shaming men. And some are caught in a conflict between changing ideas of masculinity and traditional, unhealthy expressions of manhood. This is further complicated by the term itself.'

'Feathers were ruffled after a popular conference for professionals and students in the tech industry was reportedly overrun by male attendees claiming to be “non-binary” and accessing the event’s exclusive networking opportunities and career fair.

”To honor Grace Hopper’s legacy and inspire future generations of women in tech, Dr. Anita Borg and Dr. Telle Whitney founded Grace Hopper Celebration (GHC) in 1994,” according to the organization’s website.

But in the current age, the event advertises itself as “the world’s largest gathering of women and non-binary technologists.” Tickets cost $1,300, but the organization provides scholarships to “women and non-binary” students, faculty, and professionals to attend virtually.'

'Northwood University, which has run a female-only award program since 1970, appears to be ignoring a legal agreement it signed in January to open the program to all eligible individuals regardless of sex.

Civil rights watchdog Mark J. Perry told The College Fix via email that Northwood openly defied the legal agreement with its Sept. 13 announcement of the five latest female recipients of the Distinguished Women Awards.

He added the university, a private Michigan-based institution, even expanded the awards by introducing the new Distinguished Young Women category.

'The National Science Foundation has tapped a set of scholars to study one of its programs that funneled $365 million into diversifying STEM, but appears to have had little effect in the field of engineering.

The $300,000 grant doled out by the National Science Foundation will investigate factors influencing Broadening Participation Initiatives, or BPIs, which aim to increase the participation of women and other underrepresented groups in STEM.

The grant was recently awarded to the University at Buffalo’s Matilde Sánchez-Peña, an assistant professor of engineering education.

An article published by the University at Buffalo’s news center highlights how Sánchez-Peña and her colleagues will use their recently awarded NSF grant to “study why, despite 20 years of investment, woman [sic] make up only 20% of engineering students and tenure-track faculty.”'

'The Harvard professor Claudia Goldin has won the Nobel economics prize in recognition of her groundbreaking work examining wage inequality between men and women.

The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said on Monday that Goldin’s research “provided the first comprehensive account of women’s earnings and labour market participation through the centuries” to reveal “the causes of change, as well as the main sources of the remaining gender gap”.

She becomes only the third woman to win the prize, after Elinor Ostrom in 2009 and Esther Duflo in 2019. The prestigious award is worth 11m Swedish kronor (£819,000).'

'Syracuse University faculty and staff members from the D’Aniello Institute for Veterans and Military Families (IVMF), recently returned from Jacksonville, Florida, where they hosted a record-breaking turnout for the 26th installment of the Veteran Women Igniting the Spirit of Entrepreneurship (V-WISE) conference. The cohort for this unique training program is exclusively composed of women who are either veterans themselves or military spouses with aspirations to launch or expand their small businesses.

V-WISE is held biannually across the United States, and while this wasn’t the first time the conference was held in Jacksonville, this cohort turned out to have the largest in-person turnout of more than 190 women actively participating in the three-day conference.'

'Ken Rosenthal is among the most influential baseball writers in the industry. He now writes for The Athletic. Each organization reads what it has to say. And his stance on the matter was clear: Bauer should be out of the league over the unproven allegations.

“Dodgers’ decision to cut ties with Trevor Bauer shouldn’t have been difficult at all,” Rosenthal headlined a column last January criticizing the team for not releasing Bauer sooner.

What did Rosenthal write this week after Bauer publicized the accuser’s damning text messages?

Nothing. He didn’t write anything.

About the same can be said about ESPN. Its article Monday referenced Bauer’s video but excluded the part where Hill acknowledged her plan to make Bauer her “next victim.”

Elsewhere, Sarah Spain sent out several tweets calling for Bauer to be suspended in 2021.

“Looking at the case’s details, the extensive police report and graphic photos, there’s more than enough reason Bauer shouldn’t be on the mound Sunday,” posted Spain.

'It’s one thing for media outlets to report on allegations of sexual assault in an informative fashion. But that’s clearly not what happened in Trevor Bauer’s case — or any other high-profile accusations leveled within the past several years.

Since the rise of the #MeToo movement, corporate media propagandists have taken it upon themselves to become the ultimate arbiters of truth when it comes to allegations of sexual misconduct. No longer are the accused “innocent until proven guilty” or given their day in court. Instead, hack-tivist “journalists” decide whether someone deserves the benefit of the doubt.

Look no further than the confirmation of now-Justice Brett Kavanaugh. When faced with an onslaught of baseless allegations of sexual assault from more than 30 years ago, Kavanaugh was slandered and proclaimed guilty by legacy media before being able to defend himself and before the facts of each case were presented to the public.

'Atlanta Braves great and MLB Hall of Famer Tom Glavine spoke with OutKick's Dan Dakich on Don't @ Me With Dan Dakich and Bauer came up. Glavine's perspective on the timing and the length of the suspension was interesting, especially in light of Bauer's revelation in the video that he was never charged despite investigations by multiple law enforcement bodies and won the only court case that was brought against him:

“You can't go back in time and put in and be three years younger and play. I think there needs to be a little bit of a conversation about how we handle these things, because in the end, there is a chance that the guys that are being accused didn't do anything wrong or they get found they’re not doing anything wrong and you can't get that time back. So I'm not sitting here and suggesting that I know the answer, but I just feel for guys when they get into a situation like that, it seems like the knee jerk reaction immediately now is, oh, we have to do something because it's, it's kind of a hot topic issue, so to speak.”'
