Anti-male sexual violence in the media

Doug Wells writes "Here is a (heavily edited by the newspaper) letter to the editor that I submited to the Idaho State Journal about attacks on the male groin as a source of "humor". It criticises the widespread acceptance of this particular form of sexual sadism (not to mention the hypocrisy (sp?) of women who enjoy this) and its consequences for boys. The bottom line is that best-estimates run around 50,000 school-age boys in the U.S. suffer medically-significant sexual injuries each year due to "acceptance" of this brand of sexual assualt, and the media are partly to blame for putting this "humor" nearly all childrens shows, movies, etc."

End of the Line for Canada's Top Feminazi Mandarin

MAUS writes "Canada's foremost elected feminist official has been crowded out of the arena. After coming dangerously close to winning the leadership of the front running Liberal Party, Sheila Copps, who championed the initiative to form a "hate watch"of men's groups on the internet has lost the nomination to re-run as a Liberal in her once secure bastion. Apparently she has also burned her bridges with the NDP. This marks a receeding of the tide of feminist power in Canada. Article here."

John Kerry And Sucking Up To Feminism

Luek writes "Likely Presidential candidate John Kerry says if elected his administration will put American government and our legal system back on the side of women.

Well excuse me Mr. Kerry but as I see it the government has made women a social class of over privileged aristocrats at the expense of men. I don't believe this arrangement is what this country is about.

It is past time for the tide to go the other way and restore men's rights for a change!

I don't know wether to label this misandry by the Kerry campaign shameless pandering or just plain stupidity. Probably a mix of both."




Additional reading of his site shows that he supports affirmative action and Title IX, believes that women only earn 73 cent for every dollar earned by men due to massive hidden discrimination by millions of employers and not women's own choices to work fewer hours, safer jobs, etc., co-sponsored the Violence Against Women Act and the Women's Health Equity Act, and will only appoint pro-choice judges to the Supreme Court. I'm not sure that it matters whether his misandry is shameless pandering, stupidity, or anything else. As long as he's going to act like a feminist, he might as well be one.

WashPost columnist decries Naomi Wolf's latest

Matt writes "Washington Post columnist Anne Applebaum courageously and rationally called Naomi Wolf on her latest attempt to get attention for herself, ruin a man's career and/or repuatation, and otherwise be a jerk. The column speaks for itself.

While three weeks old, I came across a reference to it in today's Post's letters. Two were published, predictably both denouncing Applebaum's column. Well, what did I expect? :-)"

If? More like already is! But not for much longer....

Get a load of this "use"
of taxpayer money (mostly the nearest man's I imagine) It pretty much proves Esther Vilar
right when she says man hardly exists in woman's world. Sometimes, I think a gendered civil war is pre-determined, what am I saying? We're already in the middle of one!

Amnesty International Spreading Misandry

Luek writes " Now Amnesty International has gotten
into the disinformation act about violence against women.

The are stirring up the crock pot by spewing out the same old tired myths about how a woman is raped, beaten or otherwise abused by a man ever couple of seconds somewhere in the world.

Never is any mention made of the violence perpetrated against men!

Too bad Amnesty International has turned into a political organ and has apparently abandoned its original purpose as a humanitarian organization.

There is an e-mail address to contact the local Amnesty International office in your country if you would like to educate the twits!"

Texas Jury Didn't Honor The Abuse Excuse Card!

Luek writes "
A Texas jury convicted a woman for the brutal murder of her husband.

Her defense was based on the abuse excuse and claimed justified self-defense. She alleged he repeatedly beat her and she killed him after he raped her adding in the marital rape charge which is becoming a domestic violence popular false allegation to use against the husband.

Also, she murdered him by stabbing him almost 200 times!!!"

TLE also writes "In Houston a woman was just convicted of the murder of her husband, claiming "self defense" as the justification for stabbing him 193 times while he was bound to the bed.

Houston Chronicle article from last week here.

How could they convict her? She's so cute!"

Blaming Hubbie to Stay Out of Jail

Mark Turner writes "Here's a great story: Dar Heatherington is a city councillor in the city of Lethbridge, Canada; about a year ago she disappeared on a business trip to Montana and showed up in Las Vegas three days later, claiming to have been drugged, kidnapped and sexually assaulted. A few days later she admitted to making the whole story up, and running off to Las Vegas with a married man. (background) NOW, in order to stay out of jail, she is claiming that her husband STALKED her, even though she's lied to police before and has absolutely no physical evidence to prove her allegations.

L.A. judge acknowledges anti-male bias

Marc writes "This article at NBC4.TV discusses the paternity fraud case of Taron James, a Gulf War veteran in Torrance, CA, a member of NCFM-LA, and the founder of
Veterans Fighting Paternity Fraud. Taron was stationed in the Gulf of Mexico on drug interdiction when a woman falsely identified him as the father of her child in order to collect benefits. The DA obtained a default judgment against Taron using faulty service that wasn't even in Taron's name. When the DA then came after Taron, he
got a DNA test that excluded him as the father. The DA still pursued him and took over $45,000 of his property, driving him virtually penniless. When the DA garnished Taron's unemployment pay, Taron appealed it. The administrative law judge wrote a decision saying that he cannot do anything about it but that this was totally unjust. The article quotes part of the decision, but the best part, not quoted in the article, is when the judge says:
“Further, it is acknowledged that ongoing fraud in the child support arena occurs regularly, and there is a distinct anti-male prejudice at work, of which the claimant is a victim. Hundreds if not thousands of individuals are being deprived of their due process rights to liberty and property as a result of draconian child support laws.”

When NCFM-LA gets its website finally updated, we'll post the full decision."

No Child (Girl?) Left Behind?

frank h writes "The title of this article is "No Parent Left Behind." It addresses the things that the No Child Left Behind Act requires that schools make available to parents. Among these things are information on achievement numbers by race, teacher qualifications, test explanations, and offers to transfer students from struggling or dangerous schools. What's missing is gender. This law does NOT require that districts maek achievement by gender available to parents.

This is a small thing but the implications are large. It's something we ought to try to change."
