Our Philosophy

And I say "our" , because it is our's. The ideals of Men's Activism News Network are simple. Its not complex even if the issues we tackle are. Every once and a while the administrators of this board like to post this page Please go here. In keeping with the tradition that MANN hopes to create I hope all posters take five minuts to read this. This of course is not to stifle debate or censor anyone's feelings, but the one thing it does encourage is 'empathy'. Not just for men, but for women and all races and individuals of all sorts. Still encouraging you to speak your mind, but please consider the posts you submit and it's relevance to our cause. One of the smallest poems ever spoken was by Muhammad Ali, it goes "Me, We". Our war is an ideological one and their weapon is hate, not ours. We need to nuetralize it, not inflame it. And to remind you, there is no end to our appreciation of your contributions. We will continue and we will love, laugh and smile as we do it. :)

Rowdy Bride Spends Night In Jail

CPM writes "Rowdy Bride Spends Night In Jail Wow! She sure didn't waste any time showing her true personality. Pity it wasn't before the wedding, so the poor sap might have been able to change his mind. Every guy considering marriage should read this story and take a long hard look at this chick's ugly mug. There is a good chance that this is what your little cupcake will soon reveal herself as. This one could barely wait until the wedding. Of course there were other hooligans in this group, but since this is HER special day, lets give all the attention to her just like she wants it." Ray also submitted this tory and said "I find it very biased that the words "domestic violence" were never once used in the telling of this story. Perhaps this new bride was just trying to clearly state here empowerment over any semblence of male oppression

Feminists just love paternity fraud!

amperro writes "I came across the following article on the web by Jenny Skoble, an apparent enemy of men. Does anyone truly believe that feminists support paternity fraud for the benefit of children? Or do they just want to be able to lie, cheat, and steal with total impunity?"

Good Contraceptive News From India!

Acksiom writes "A Delhi biomedical engineering professor has developed a new male contraceptive that looks very promising!

According to the Alternet article at http://www.alternet.org/story.html?StoryID=16617 :

"The injection coats the vas with a clear polymer gel that has a negative and positive electric charge. Sperm cells also have a charge, so the differential charge from the gel ruptures the cell membrane as it passes through the vas, stopping the sperm in their tracks before they can even start their journey to the egg.""

A Change In Media Trend???

I posted this because it might make men feel there is some good out there. The author of this article is making an argument that the latest Terminator movie is "Anti-Feminist". I seen the movie and I thought the exact same things and a few more. Careful not to confuse anti-feminist with anti-women, because the movie is not anti-woman in any regards. To make it simple the robots represent the "system" and its almost as if the system is "feminist". Maybe Cameron's divorce gave him a view at the biased nature of our environment? Read Here.

Y Bother: Men Are Doomed

Anonymous User writes "Another british male biologist (Bryan Sykes, professor of human genetics at Oxford University) claims that men are doomed to be extinct and that women will rule the planet. I feel that the article is in a fairly mocking tone as usual with these types of reports.

Farrell Discusses Historic Campaign for Governor

Best-selling men's issues author Warren Farrell discussed his historic men's and fathers' rights campaign for Governor of California on His Side with Glenn Sacks on KRLA 870 AM in Los Angeles on Sunday, August 17. To listen to the archived version of the show, go to His Side.

Farrell put forth his long-term solution to relieving California's budget problems--keeping fathers in children's lives. Farrell proposed a package of reforms to solve this problem, including the rebuttable presumption of joint custody and placing legal limits on post-divorce move-aways.

You reap what you sow

bernee writes "This article in the Sydney Morning Herald outlines how the Australian government is suffering somewhat of a rebound from legislation originally formulated to ‘protect’ battered wives. Immigration legislation was amended to allow foreign spouses who were being sponsored by Australian residents special treatment when it came to getting a visa if they had been subjected to domestic abuse. It seems many women were abusing the system (surprise, surprise). Being the egalitarian society it is, law required the Australian legislators to make this legislation gender neutral – of course, only women are abused, aren’t they. Lo and behold men are now applying in droves for protection under the law."

No Justice in Canadian Family Courts

AFG writes "Here is a good site dealing with the corrupt and feminist controlled family courts in Canada. Take a look at some of the articles and letters and get a good idea of why Canada's family court system is one of the most misandrist in the world.
