Ahh, MSN again. Just amazing. This latest has it all: stereotyping, men-as-means-to-an-end, and on and on. But I will say that it does lack the usual "men suck and are basically evil" fare that MSN, et al., usually serves up, substituting it this time for a men-as-sexual-tools theme.

Suppose they will publish an article tomorrow entitled "Top Five Reasons to go for a Younger Woman"? Nah.

Benjamin Adam Studtmann writes "Apparently being one of the most brilliant men on earth earns one the right to get penalized for it by one's ex-wife in divorce court. The judge ruled that since his ex's future career prospects were 'paltry and stagnant', that his prize money should be regarded as income for her to take. He's more successful, she's less successful, so therefore his wealth becomes hers. A breathtaking demonstration of The New 'Equality'."

tonysprout writes "Spike TV claims it is the first network for men. I'm a man, and I don't watch it. I've sent email (via an online contact form at here)
asking them to consider doing a show advocating men's rights.

We NEED this show. You NEED to contact them and ask for the same thing. As a channel for men, they continue to reinforce the negative stereotypes of masculinity with shows like "Stripperella"."

Benjamin Adam Studtmann writes "Rather ironically in regards to the immediately previous entry concerning the total and absolute prohibition on teacher/student contract, particuarly emphasized towards men, we have this heartwarming tale of a female schoolteacher harassing several of her students with endless pornographic messages, as well as forcing the class in general to discuss her sexual habits with her boyfriend. Clearly, a total, modern woman. Oh, by the way -- the case against her was completely dismissed due to court irregularities. How handy! How fitting! How standard! How obscenely offensive to any sapient two-legged organism with the faintest concept of human equality!"

Benjamin Adam Studtmann writes "Fresh in from Scientific American, we have an excellent article examining male and female mortality -- right from the get-go, they are quite emphatic that an enormous number of social factors are to blame for males' early demise; it is not purely a question of longevity being linked only to physiology of gender."

Today I was at the Border's at the Flatiron Crossing mall in Broomfield, CO. I stopped by the greeting card section to see what was available.

There were several cards by Marcel Shurman that could be considered misandric:"

Anon User writes "The paper Risk anxiety in the classroom: teachers touching children explores the logic behind the idea that teacher-to-student touching (no matter how "innocent") must be considered suspiciously and must be avoided. (Without mentioning gender, it should be quite obvious that teachers of a certain gender have to be more careful about this...) There is the issue of avoiding false accusations, but the authors refer to the perceptions of risk and danger in society. It is said that "no touching" policies have lead to such situations as male teachers afraid to pick up injured students lying on sports fields. Basically, this report talks about why teachers end up being warned about touching students and the effects that can result from rules and fears about touching students."

Raymond Cuttill writes "John is now 6 weeks into a hunger strike in Newbury, England as the media continues to ignore his story. Full item at Thames Valley branch of Father 4 Justice (Hosted by the Men's Hour). You are welcome to add comments for John. John is aware of the debate about the usefulness of hunger strikes in the father's movement but feels it is his only option so any encouragement and messages of support would be most welcome."

Benjamin Adam Studtmann writes "This man has carried his blind, aged mother across the whole of India on a holy pilgrimage for the past eight years. She says he is "nice". He is indeed a holy man."

The criminal case against Bryant has been dismissed.

CPM writes

"http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,131060,00.html

Wow! Just wow! Absolutely no mention that some of the terrorists are female. When refering to hundreds of men and just a handful of women dieing in combat, we must call them "men and women." When referring some male and some female terrorists are threatening to blow up kids, we must call them "gunmen" and "attackers". I'm sure that the ladies involved are only there to nurture."

Thomas writing now:

The threat of these "black widows" is growing, as pointed out in this article. Of course, the article goes out of its way to try to absolve these women who murder innocent civilians, including children. "There is no religious aspect to this -- it's psychological ... terrorists exploiting the misfortune of these women."

If all males had the decency to die, then every person on earth would be spiritually perfect. (Sarcasm off)

The Pope's biographer discusses The Theology of the Body, supposedly promising to revolutionaize the Cath. church's POV on sexuality and the body. Well, we'll see.

But condemning male sexuality is still very much on the agenda. On page 4 of this epistle, one reads:

What response have you been getting specifically from women?


I do seminars specifically for women and I begin these seminars with an apology for the lusts of men and for the way that male lust has wounded the female heart.

Just great.
