No more "Ladies Night" in New Jersey

Steve Krakauer writes "Check out this story about New Jersey's court ruling banning Ladies Night promotions at bars and clubs after a man took a club to court claiming gender bias.

I guess equal rights means paying equal for drinks and cover also...

It makes sense."

Judge: Bush Abortion Ban Unconstitutional

By DAVID KRAVETS, Associated Press Writer

SAN FRANCISCO - In a ruling with coast-to-coast effect, a federal judge declared the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act unconstitutional Tuesday, saying it infringes on a woman's right to choose.

U.S. District Judge Phyllis Hamilton's ruling came in one of three lawsuits challenging the legislation President Bush (news - web sites) signed last year.

She agreed with abortion rights activists that a woman's right to choose is paramount, and that it is therefore "irrelevant" whether a fetus suffers pain, as abortion foes contend. The

article quotes:

"a woman's right to choose is paramount, and that it is therefore "irrelevant" whether a fetus suffers pain"

Matriarchy or Gynaeocracy is the Supreme Law and death and suffering then become "irrelevant.""

The Empire Strikes Back

Hunchback writes "How does the femborg fight back when the true face of domestic violence is being exposed? It latches on to a handful of sensational, well publicized cases; one of its reps sponsors a bill to create an "advisory board"; eventually the "findings" of the board funnel even more public funds into selected feminist-controlled coffers. This article depicts the birth of a dark star. The campaign was executed quietly, announced publicly only when the result was a fait accompli. Notice the background of the bill's sponsor and the proposed make-up of the board. Letters to the editor might forestall this measure from becoming a national model. Letters to the editor should be no more than 70 words and submitted immediately."

Degrading Hardees Commercials

Josh N. writes "Recent Hardees® commercials depict men as too stupid to select a loaf of bread or open a cardboard tube of instant biscuits, while a narrator’s voice proclaims that “without Hardees®, some guys would starve…” Aren’t we all lucky that Hardees® is making sure that the men of America don’t die of starvation because they’re so stupid? Hardees® though, is not the only culprit. For example, another series of advertisements from Domino’s Pizza’s promoting their Philly Cheese Steak Pizzas show a group of men teasing a dog by summoning it with a bell (a parallel to Pavlov’s bell experiments) so that the dog comes in expectation of food, but instead is mocked as a “stupid dog.” A few seconds later, the doorbell rings, and all the men run to the door making panting dog sounds (another Pavlov draw, this time equating the men to dogs) and are greeted by a pizza delivery man who says “No drooling this time guys.” Thus the commercial first takes the time to establish the dog’s intelligence as “stupid”. It next makes the men behave like dogs, so an easy inference can be made by the viewer based on what they’ve established about dogs’ intelligence, that men are also stupid."

Can Gender Be Socially Constructed?

Ray writes "Can Gender be socially constructed as women's studies programs teach on our college campuses? Wendy McElroy writes about the life & death of Bruce Reimer, a boy whose botched circumcision led to medical science's failed attempt(s) to literally, physically, (and mentally) transform him into a girl, Death By Theory The gender controversy that raged around (and in) his life, rages to this day. School Debates Difference Between Gender & Sex Should children as young as elementary school be allowed to choose their "gender" as California law advocates? Letter From CA Dept. of Ed Have steps to protect the rights of homosexual children created a climate of “politically correct heterophobia,” that threatens the rights of heterosexual people not to be "harassed" by the gay, lesbian and transgendered agenda? In this whole debate, is the right to be a heterosexual male the one sexual construct that is being left totally out of the equation? The issue appears to confront a number of perspectives as wide ranging and intritcate as the topic of human sexuality itself. California law purports to be seeking an enlightened perspective. However, is the current California attempt to define human sexuality in an all encompassing benevolence, yet one more example of the “tyranny of tolerance” that has for decades worked so aggressively to belittle and humiliate all things associated with heterosexual maleness as unacceptable oppression of the “privileged patriarchy?”"

Mike's Hard Lemonade Ad

Bledso writes "Mike's Hard Lemonade has released a new commercial that condones violence against men. A man and a woman are sitting at the bar and another man walks up with a series of blatantly cheesy and juvenile pick-up lines in an attempt to impress the woman. He's clearly portrayed as a big jerk. The first and second attempts draw eye rolls. On the third attempt, the man that's with the woman attempts to tell the offender to leave, but is cut off at the pass when the woman head butts the pick-up artist, knocking him to the floor. Then, apparently, all is well again. The violence seemingly justified. As always, imagine if a man head butted a woman in an ad. The horror! The web site isn't exactly easy to navigate, but you need to get to the "Mike's Media Room" section to see the ad."

While F4J has received criticism for its actions, Sacks points out that "most protesters have court-ordered visitation with their children but cannot get English courts to enforce those rights. Their protests have broken the law, but have done so only in an effort to get the English government to enforce the law."

Honda Pilot ad: "My husband was raised by wolves"

dishevelled while licking a plate like a dog, drinking straight from
the water cooler at work, and chasing a Frisbee (thrown by his son)

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."
