While This is going in the humour section, I doubt most guys will find this funny, here's a
link to Life as a
guy (Asf File) there's some history
behind it in case you're interested. make of it what you will.

Jeff writes "It's okay that she fabricated the assualt and abduction ( here) ...she is a "young woman upset by a fading relationship with her boyfriend, Ryan Fisher. Friends said the two had been fighting, and Seiler's roommate, Heather Thue, told officers that Fisher did not pay as much attention to Seiler as she wanted. Seiler's mother told police her daughter had not been herself lately and was "extremely needy" of Fisher.""

Ray writes "In the story about the 19 year old student who faked her own abduction it is revealed that the police (in looking for a "male suspect") had a gun to the head of one male fitting their profileFalse Accuser and Her Victim.

The 19 year old student has been charged with two misdemeanor counts of obstructing officers, each carrying up to a 9-month jail sentence plus a fine.
False Accuser Student Charged. In looking over the facts involved in this chaotic series of events one can only wonder, "Has justice been served, and if so, how?""

Ray writes "Dr. Stephen Baskerville writes of yet another atroctity committed by our government against men (and their families) in his article. Violence Against Women Panel Commits Violence Against Democracy. In this election year, it appears the Bush administration has no desire to offend any of the potential voters in that multi-billion taxpayer ripoff, (cesspool of corruption) known as the domestic violence industry. It likewise appears he has no care about offending every voting male in America, including this registered Republican."

Anonymous User writes "For many women drunken drivers, jail not a cure
Prisons need to offer gender-based treatment options, officials say
But some prison officials have concluded that the system has to improve the type of treatment it offers and come up with more gender-specific programs.

Women often have a harder time than male alcoholics re-integrating themselves into the community after they have been punished, said Sandy DeYoung, a social worker who counsels female alcoholics at Taycheedah.

"The stigma of going to prison for a woman is huge," DeYoung said. "It adds shame and guilt to the underlying reasons they have for drinking in the first place.

"The issues for women are different than men. That's been a problem we didn't understand for a long time."

"It's absolutely amazing how many of these women have been sexually abused. Eating disorders are huge in here. The issues just pile on and on." article

There's so much to say on this, I don't know where to begin! A book written by an undercover 'investogator' re sorority life in America. She ends the review saying they have really great parties. The usual rape stuff is mentioned, too. I am not surprised MSN carried this review. Frankly I think this is a work of fiction. Thoughts?

Anonymous User writes "A shortage of male teachers is causing concerns in Nova Scotia. "Many elementary students come from single-parent families typically headed by women, and they can benefit in many ways from exposure to positive male role models at school." Except 80% of school teachers are female.

Maybe they need some affirmative action to encourage men to go back into teaching.

Ray writes "This study says Girls Have Been Faster Learners, but faster learners of what? And what biases of the reasearchers led them to conclude that what girls learn is what boys should also learn? Are educational researchers telling males, "This is a woman's world," rather than taking a more objective approach showing that the sexes learn different things at different rates based on their interests, and perhaps their "hard wired" genetic differences?"

After many delays, I've finally converted Steve van Valkenburg's What Are Men's Issues? document to PDF format to make it available for easier distribution. Click on the link to download it or find it in the Activism Projects box on the right side of the main page. We encourage everyone to download, print, and distribute this document wherever appropriate. It's a wonderful introduction and summary of men's issues and is a great resource to be used in men's advocacy. I'd like to thank Steve and everyone who contributed to its creation for doing such a professional job!

MAUS writes "Look at what was submitted to Dear Abby as advice on how to deal with unwanted flirting. If this group of lawyers is anything like their counterpart in Canada they are composed of lesbians with marine sergeant haircuts, little round Leon Trotsky glasses and snears that would intimidate a rottweiller. And they are bent upon making heterosexuality as illegal as possible. I know this will make a great forum discussion and I think it might be a nice gesture if we gleaned the best of that discussion and sent it as a reply both to Abby and this "ERA" group of lawyers."

Ray writes "Here is a very interesting letter that was sent anonymously to Mensactivism, that wound up as post #93 in the discussion on "Domestic Violence Propaganda in CA," and is entitled, A One Stop Divorce Shop In Virginia. I am very pleased that Mensactivism has reached a level of integrity, where someone feels confident enough to send/post such a letter. I forwarded it on to "appropriate authorities" as best I could, and requested that they try to further ascertain allegations made in the body of the letter. Lastly, in post # 94 of that thread, is a copy of my forwarding email, REGARDING:A One Stop Divorce Shop In Virginia that I sent directly to Anon."

Anonymous User writes "A man who harassed more than 40 women whose names he got from accident reports and obituaries that ran in local newspapers was sentenced to 15-225 years in prison along with 46 years of probation after his release. The guy definitely has some problems, but I would suspect that if the sexes were reversed in this case, this story wouldn't have even made the news, and the woman would have got nothing more than a little slap on the hand. article"

mcc99 writes "The ACLU has, like Amnesty International, been overtaken by feminists. Like AI they try to keep it quiet but it comes out every now and then unequivolcally in what they choose for their causes. Thus an organization that started off as being good and noble and a necessary corrective has become a force for feminist indoctrination and promulgation of women's-interests-only-need-be-considered thinking. ACLU won't touch men's issues with a 20' pole but will happily promulgate feminist myths of all kinds. Like AI it champions a number of gender-non-specific causes and then when it finds a feminist one, it goes all-out advertising it and pushing it. They try to avoid getting noticed for their bias but alas they cannot help but be scrutinized.

ACLU's latest offense can be seen in their recent action item at: http://www.aclu.org/CriminalJustice/CriminalJustic e.cfm?ID=9955&c=249
