Mallard gets fifty years

angry_young_men writes "Now this is what I call justice: A Texas woman who struck a man with her car, drove home and left him to bleed to death while wedged in the windscreen has been sentenced to 50 years in prison for murder. With a sentence of this magnitude, one could have expected the same penalty had the sexes been reversed; hence it shows us that, in sentencing, there exist at least some judges who don't discriminate by sex or gender but rather by severity of the crime."

This week, I've decided to talk about a topic that hasn't been discussed in a while, and that's choice for men or C4M as it's sometimes called. So let's hear your views.

Woman boss accused of putting boot in

John Gardiner writes "Woman boss fooling around kicks male employee in the groin and creates serious injury. Check this out

This has got to go international. Maintain the rage! Make a noise. It demonstrates the sick and low attitudes held by women and public institutions towards men. An utter disgrace. This is a new low in female behaviour.

Fight the fight,

Child Abuse

Neil Steyskal writes "This editorial in the Boston Globe illustrates the lack of progress on child abuse, even after all these years. It's still not a criminal offense! Abusers don't go to jail. They just lose their kids for a short period -- sometimes. Why? Hint: the editorial shows that officials and the media won't even mention who is doing all the child abuse. If it were men, I suspect they'd tell us."

Goverment inquiry into child custody rights

Chas writes "The Australian Federal Parliament "will consider whether parents should automatically be given equal custody of their children if they split up and whether grandparents should have access rights in the event of a family breakdown.

Prime Minister John Howard announced yesterday that the Standing Committee on Family and Community Affairs will have until December to also consider whether the existing child-support formula works fairly for both parents given how much each contributed to the care of a child."

Notable in this enquiry is an investigation in to financial relief from Child Support payments for non-custodial parents who actively care for their children. Not reported in this item is the suggestion that fathers should be offered financial benefits for increasing their time with their children.

Alison Armstrong on Glenn Sacks

Philalethes writes "Highly recommended: If you didn't hear Glenn Sacks' program Sunday night (June 29), you can still catch it on his archive page for a few days.

'Educator and relationship guru Alison Armstrong, who has given workshops to thousands of women all over the United States, claims to understand men. Some quotes: "In my relationship courses for women a lot of women will say they want a man who wants a six figure income. I'll ask them if they know the percentage of men who earn a six figure income. It's maybe the top 5%. And then I'll ask them 'are you in the top 5% of all women?" ... "Men give women a lot more slack than women give men." ... "Women expect men to act like women--women can't see men for who they are. All they see are rude, hairy women. When a man doesn't do what a woman would do he's immediately in trouble."'

And my favorite: 'The more I'm willing to be responsible for, the more impact I can have in my own life.' I had to go back and listen to this again to make sure I heard it right. Nice to hear a woman willing to talk some sense."

Men Aren't Marrying Because They're........

Mark writes "This article in the Baltimore Sun blames the immaturity of men for the declining marriage rates in America. Surprise, surprise...there is no mention of how women may in any way be responsible for this." Or the government for that matter.

The column discusses new research which shows that divorced dads are far more generous with their children than they are given credit for.

Lifetime

As far as boycotting particular companies, I have a problem with that. Only a small percentage of employees at a company (or the advertising executives they hire) are responsible for misandric advertisements, and boycotting could result in loss of business, and many innocent people losing their jobs. The only time I would boycott if is hatred of a particular group is a prerequisite for joining, or a high percentage of the members hate a particular group. Since it seems a very high percentage of NOW members are man-haters, I certainly wouldn't buy anything from them.

As far as boycotting Lifetime, they do have many programs that could appeal to men, such as movies with women many men admire. Also, they once had a movie produced called "Men Don't Tell". It features a man who is physically abused by his crazy, maniacal pig of a wife. She is played by Judith Light, who is a tall, menacing woman.

In a climactic scene near the end, she is yelling at him and hitting him. The little daughter runs up and says, "Mommy. Stop it! Stop it!" She then turns and starts hitting the little girl. To protect his daughter, he slugs his wife and knocks her out. My other e-mail address is mcbricker@webtv.net.

CBS "60 Minutes" talks about Title IX

CJ writes "

The "Lace Curtain" (feminist tilted media bias) seems to be ripping at some of its seams, but only a little... "60 Minutes" did a story on Title IX. The report pointed out the gains women have made in sports since it was passed, and about the impact this has had on men's athletic programs - basically non-revenue generating men's sport programs have been eliminated on many campuses to meet gender quotas. Of course feminist groups are organized to oppose any reform to Title IX and their viewpoints were a big part of the news story. Title IX was created to stop gender bias, now it is used as a tool to eliminate men's sports despite student interest and participation levels - just to maintain gender quotas, and it is enforced by feminists interested ONLY in the well being of females. Lets support the cause and contact “60 Minutes” with good words for their effort…"

Fathers driven to suicide by Child Support Agency

Chas writes "This story reports one man's experience of Child Support Agency contact. It is used to illustrate the damage done to fathers by the laws governing child support enforcement. Within Australia, the male suicide rate in a single year is now four times that of the total number of Australian soldiers killed in the Vietnam conflict. Fathers' groups around the country claim at least three clients of the CSA commit suicide every day. "Jack" was almost one of them.Read the story here:
