Mother Abandons Son In Turkey For New Lover; Police Monitoring Situation

Benjamin Adam Studtmann writes "As we read this heartwarming story of maternal love, we see once again how women are obviously naturally superior mothers, with enhanced 'emotional knowing' and social networking skills. (Yes, that's sarcastic.) Note that the police are far more worried about protecting the mother than the child. Also note that the father simply doesn't exist in the picture at all -- no mention is made of him whatsoever. Did this child spring whole from the forehead of Zeus?"

Popular Campaign Kills CA. Anti-Father Bill

Anonymous User writes "In the face of enormous opposition, California Senate President Pro Tem John Burton (D-San Francisco) has decided to withdraw a bill which would have granted custodial parents an almost unlimited right to move children far way from their noncustodial parents.

Popular outrage--including over 2,000 calls, letters and faxes to Sacramento as well as wide media coverage--was generated by radio talk show hosts Glenn Sacks and Dr. Laura Schlesinger.

YWCA takes example from YMCA

DasCoon writes "Here we see an article on a YWCA allowing men in on the board of directors. The article states YMCAs have allowed women on the board of directors for over 70 years. Of course some women are protesting it for the same old reasons. What's good for the gander is good for the goose."

Cars let angered females inflict serious violence

An article explains how angered females can inflict serious violence from the wheel of a car . Such incidents of female violence include a man who was run over after a fishing trip and the Clara Harris incident. Men were killed in both incidents. The article says that for violent females, vehicles may compensate for their lack of physical strength compared to men. It does not sound as though a huge amount of concern is expressed in a sense. For example, females are often viewed as the "weaker sex" (and thus usually incapable of violence.) However, vehicles used as weapons can even the odds such that they can do serious violence.

She's no angel, she's a witch

seattleshark writes "I'm not really trying to inflame everyone here, but this story is almost unbelievable. Also, I challenge ANYONE that reads this site to find a similar story involving a father doing the same, and being treated the same.

May justice have mercy on your maleness."

Empowered Women Teaching Respect Via Violence

Benjamin Adam Studtmann writes "Here is yet another story in which a mother takes matters into her own hands to teach someone a lesson in 'respect'. In this case, the woman in question did it with a long length of steel pipe, leaving six people injured. The reason? Her teenage son was asked to leave a party that he gate-crashed. When, exactly, did liberation and empowerment just melt right into psychotic sociopathy?"

Dr. K's divorce

Kyo writes "Former Mets and Yankees pitcher Dwight Gooden and his wife are divorcing, and despite the fact that they *as a couple* have shown themselves unable to manage their assets, the judge seems to be setting his ex-wife up nicely, forcing Dwight to turn over close to 60% of his current salary as a Yankees advisor to her. It's not going to get any easier for Dwight to pay his wife $5,929 per month, is it?

Old boys' clubs contribute to gender gap in IT?

Anonymous User writes "

This item from a recent Penn State newsletter mentions some "research" that has been done by the university regarding the "problem" of there being more men than women in the information technology field (of course, there is no "problem" that there are less men than women in the education field).



"Because only one in four IT jobs belongs to a woman, the researchers questioned how the combination of an Old Boys' Network and the male-dominated IT workplace affected women."



The conclusion of the "study" is that companies need to provide special social networking opportunities for women to solve this "problem".

Biased article on move-aways

Anonymous User writes "The New York Times is such a s****y and biased paper. Here is a clearly biased article on move-aways. It belongs in the editorial section, not the news section. Nary a word is offered to point out that non-custodial dads are almost always just as good or better parents as their female counterparts. Thus, switching primary custody to the dad in case the mom moves away should most often be a clear and healthy alternative to allowing mom to uproot the child and move away."
