More Women, More Underaged Boys

Anonymous User writes "Hey, I thought men were the ones who had to be looked after when it came to interacting with teens? At least that`s what society tells us. A New Brighton woman was arrested on accusations that she performed sex acts on a 13-year-old friend of her son and provided pornographic materials to other boys. In another case, an angry judge is holding Rebecca Burden in jail until she comes up with $100,000 for a full-cash bond. The 27-year-old Bullitt County woman is accused of having sex with two 15-year-old boys."

Thomas writing now. It's important to keep these cases in the open to try to wear thin the feminist notion that women are always innocent or even victims. Here's a commentary by K.C. Wilson on that issue.

The MALE Vote

frank h writes "You won't actually read the New York Times saying that the male vote is swinging the election, but if you read between the lines here, you'll see. Of course, the pollsters and politicos won't say it out loud because they WANT the women to have the power, or at least think they do, and they don't want the politicians actually DOING anything to get the male vote, like maybe standing up to the feminist minority. But it's there, guys. It's there."

Thomas writing now. This article is actually about the white male vote.

Carpitcher Loses Appeal

The_Beedle writes "Aleck J. Carpitcher, sentenced to 38 years for molesting an 11 year old girl, has lost his appeal to the Virginia Supreme Court. Carpitchers accuser recanted her testimony nine months after he was convicted in 1999. There was no physical or corroborative evidence. This appeal challenged a Virginia law prohibiting introduction of new evidence more than 21 days after conviction.
Roanoke Times Story

There was a Men's Activism story two years ago about this, before the appeal: Men's Activism Thread from 2002

And of course, it made News of the Weird this week: Fourth Bullet under 'Can't Possibly be True'"

Women charged with dog-drowning, false reporting

Another example of a counter-stereotype. Won't see this story beyond local news: Woman Drowns Boyfriend's Little Dachshund and 2 women charged in dog killing

I am amazed it made it that far, really.

Murder Over a Sexual Harassment Suit?

Anonymous User writes "Something must have gone terribly wrong with somebody . . . In Kentucky, a female worker was shot and killed after filing a sexual harassment suit against a male co-worker. She was going to testify two days later. The male co-worker, whom some said had an interest in the woman, was suspected. A female who had been in a relationship with the victim was also suspected (she had threatened the victim in retaliation for a previous threat.) However, she said she was sick in bed at the time and was not responsible for the murder. In the end, the male worker was found not guilty because proof was lacking and some witnesses were questionable. There is a timeline of articles on the case to see."

Prison Abuse Blamed on "Gender Inequalities" in Military

mens_issues writes "OK, so here's the reason for the prisoner abuse in Iraq: it was
women soldiers trying to fit in with the men. See this insightful

Special Restrictions for Male Rescue Volunteers

An Anonymous User writes, "The Orange County Rescue Mission has an application packet which individuals can use to apply as volunteers [file is in PDF format.] (View application as HTML.) This packet has some restrictions whereby male volunteers are prohibited from holding female children. Also, male volunteers may not meet with a client when the door is closed without a female present. Notice that these restrictions are specific to the male gender. Likely, it is because abusers are usually men (or are usually thought to be men) that these restrictions exist. Protecting children from abuse is important, but how effective are restrictions like these? (Perhaps they just guard against false accusations.) Or are there better methods that minimize discrimination?" See the Read More section for additional commentary.

UK Petition on Contact Orders

ReformEightyNine writes ""We, the undersigned, ask the Government to recognise the flouting of contact orders to be an act of harassment against the non-resident parent under the Protection from Harassment Act 1997. Further that contact orders be made with notice that denial of contact will be met with either non-punitive or punitive action or both." This is a genuine opportunity to lobby the UK Government and apply pressure for reform. PLEASE add your signature in support because your signature will count. Electronic petitions of 300 or more signatures are usually assured of an official Government response on the Prime Minister’s website."

Doonesbury strip shows man's head on platter

mens_issues writes "The Doonesbury comic strip (by Gary Trudeau) for May 23 shows the character “Joanie” carrying a platter with a university president’s head on it. The headless man says “What’s this?” to which she replies “A good start.”

The strip's site is found here. Universal Press apologized for running the strip so soon after Nicholas Berg’s beheading in Iraq.

Why it would be OK to have published the cartoon if the beheading had not recently taken place?

Call to Activism

Ray writes "Mensactivism is prominently mentioned in this article published at Men's News Daily Are We Men, Or Sheep, Or Men, Or... The author issues a call for men to supersede their natural (and learned) drive to be isolated individuals (loners/dominate males) for the sake of the greater good of all men. Men alive today are targeted as individuals in a group by various "oppressive things," but men have not learned to respond to those "oppressive things" in a concerted fashion. Men tend not to be effectively united as a group, yet they share a common bond as men affected by common "personal" issues. Is it the targeted personal shaming of each men's deepest and most private feelings by radical feminist tactics, that has left men as individuals and as a group so utterly disempowered, or do we each fall prey to our own innate drive to be more dominate than the next male? Men have many, many valid issues! Men are certainly dying to prove that, but not intentionally."

Talking toilet orders men to sit down

Philalethes writes "'A German inventor who developed a gadget that berates men if they try to use the toilet standing up has sold more than 1.6 million devices.' Came across this link in the weblog of Claire Wolfe, who remarks that '...this whole business of trying to get men to sit to pee has a lot more to do with feminism gone amuck than with keeping a ty-de-bowl,' and also links a great Walter Williams article I remember from a couple years back. *Sigh.* More and more I find myself feeling relieved that at age 60 I probably won't live long enough to see the worst of it."

Female False Accusers

Ray Blumhorst writes "A third teen is involved in filing a false police report that alleges sexual assault, all in a weeks time. This story talks about two of the teens, A Female Would Never Lie About Sexual Assault What makes females lie about being raped? Judging by the responses of these three, I'd say, "anything." Is it possible that females could lie about other things like domestic violence, child abuse sexual harassment, etc., where physical evidence isn't as readily available to show their lying? Only our gender feminist trained police, judges and law makers are stupid enough to believe they wouldn't."

Women in Sports be Damned!!

frank h writes "I submit this article on the International Olympic Committee here because I think that this decision, which may well be celebrated by the feminists, may spell the end for women's sports. The nitwits that think the differences between men and women can be reduced to nurture, not nature, are going to celebrate this, but the reality is that biology plays a far larger role than the courts choose to recognize. Look for transexual females (formerly males) to compete at the highest levels in all sports, thereby ruining women's sports. This is not a good thing for men, either. On the other hand, I guess it's wise to be careful what you ask for, isn't it?"
