Ray Blumhorst writes "The man in this domestic violence story Bethlehem woman found guilty of assaulting boyfriend was "Beaten so badly he lost 80 percent of his kidney function." Yet, the Prosecutor questions the veracity of the man, "who took his beatings like a man" without striking back at the woman. The Prosecutor asked, "What man would allow himself to be beaten like that?" and "Why didn't the boyfriend just leave?" If you want to see a glaring example of a domestic violence victim being battered, then battered again by the legal system, then look no further. ...and what would have happened to this battered man if he had tried to leave, or had put up his hands to ward off the blows, or simply tried to hold (restrain) his brutal attacker? How can a man get away from domestic violence, when every shelter he calls treats him like a batterer, or refuses him admittance, or tries to send him on a hundred mile drive?"

Anon user writes "Family attorney Jeff Leving and columnist Glenn Sacks fired back at the now famous Kentucky judge who ordered 'deadbeat dads' to have vasectomies or go to jail in their new column, "It's Child Support Guidelines that Need Surgery, Not 'Deadbeat Dads.'" The column is here"

Anonymous User writes "The NCFM regarding the article in the NY Times here

I don't think this is something that the NCFM should be celebrating -- another poorly veiled power grab by 4th/5th wave feminists. The NYT is printing this article not because they are stepping back on feminism, but because they are stepping up. They want women to rule the workplace AND the family. Women can have as much as they choose to want in the world of employment - time to put the brakes on men when it comes to family.

Don't be convinced by this feminine stroke on the male ego. (Oooh you big strong working man!) I'm certainly not impressed."

CPM writes "Age issues aside, there seems to be some serious stalking issues going on here. Also interesting is that the attorney for the school board is concerned about how this could disrupt the school. HELLO!!! Screw the school, how about the poor boy who has some whack job psuedo teacher stalking him ready to ruin any meaningful relationships that he may develop. It's a matter of time before she will defend herself with phony sex assault allegations."

Mangesh writes "A meeting of police officials and other govt agencies dealing with DV was held in Barabados. The main focus was violence against women, but DV against men was also discussed, which is `swept under the proverbial carpet'. Some participants also acted out a scene where a man is facing physical abuse (the story carries a picture of the scene). Some awareness! Read it here"

SuzMemphis sent us this article (registration required) and writes "In Memphis, TN an 11 year old girl accused a man of rape, but for once someone LISTENED to her story and found it to be false. Instead of allowing her to ruin an innocent person's life, she was arrested for the false accusation. Perhaps this is an indication that this horrible habit of believing all children without question will come to an end? We sure hope so!
We did notice that folks are still making excuses for this appalling behavior, but as long as justice is served, that's ok with us. We don't want children hurt either."

Michael_NC writes "An article in the Raleigh, NC News and Observer tells of new regulations and laws for domestic violence. The one thing that stands out the most is the introduction of a $100 fee that the person served with a restraining order would have to pay to help defray administrative costs. So lets see if I have this right. I saved the text of the article, so email me if you would like it. A woman gets a restraining order on dubious grounds to make room for a new boyfriend. So not only is the current guy out on the street, he gets to pay $100 for the privilege? I think this is rotten to the core."

Rand T. sent us this article about Spike TV positioning themselves as the first network geared exclusively towards men: ""Every day in every way, Spike TV is revealing just how testosterone-lite television used to be... Now, the only cable network to actively alienate women has assembled its first slate of news and documentary programs aimed specifically at men."" They also mention a series they're developing called "True Dads" about the issues that fathers face.

Raymond Cuttill writes "From the Men's Hour Blog: Today in London, to applause from Fathers 4 Justice supporters in the court room, Dave "Spiderman" Chick was found not guilty of causing a public nuisance when he climbed a crane last November by Tower Bridge, London and stayed there 6 days to highlight his being illegally stopped from seeing his 4 year old daughter. It emerged that the police used the road closures around the crane, which caused 2 hour plus traffic jams in central London, as a bargaining tool with Dave and didn't open them because it would weaken their case. Dave called the verdict "Common sense" and as to further protests he said "Watch this space!""

this is not equality writes "As we have come to expect from Yahoo..."A Portuguese woman confessed to murdering her husband and hiding his body in a kitchen freezer for three years." I realize that the freezer makes it a bit odd, but if the husband and wife were reversed, you can bet the story would not wind up in Oddly Enough."

Looks like America's feminist darling, Lynndie England, just keeps getting in deeper and deeper. I saw part of her interview last night on the news, and the reporter handled her with kid gloves, feeding her opportunities to justify her actions. Among other things, she claimed that she was just following orders. Well, now it comes out that she was recorded having sex with numerous partners, in some cases in front of Iraqi prisoners. How many people believe that she was just following orders to have sex in front of numerous viewers including prisoners, who had no choice in the matter?

I can understand the argument for refusing to release the new photos and videos to the public, at least until after investigations and trials are over. I'd hate to see evidence compromised. After the trials, though, I hope they become public. This babe is a pure expression of feminist culture, and it would be good for all interested adults to be able to graphically see what that means.

Luek writes "A 15 year old Ohio school girl reported that several white boys she knew, one of which was her insensitive boyfriend, were going to shoot black students in her school on the anniversary of the Columbine Massacre. She concocted this story to get back at her boyfriend. Also true to form, she accused one hapless young male of, drum roll please...sexual assault. It is time to publish the names of these "nasty girls" who use accusations to "get back" at males they don't like!"

Welcome to the jungle, madame. You now know what it's like to be the "donor" of genetic material when things go downhill and the law gets involved. Welcome to the 'equality' of being treated 'like a man'.

Wendy McElroy writes in her latest FoxNews column about the stereotypes people have regarding fraternities. She examines the media portrayal of fraternities and comments on the modern day "threat" fraternities pose to political correctness on campus. That threat is likely the primary reason why anti-male groups on campuses have such free reign to bash fraternity members as rapists and terrorists.
