Debunking The Femitwit Rape Gambit

Luek writes "Resa LaRu Kirkland

has a very witty article, that, effectively debunks the radical feminist fear mongering mantra we have all been browbeaten with for so long. Doing some math concerning the falsehood of "a woman being raped every 6 seconds in this country".

The authorities should find this woman and give her some relief! She must be pretty damn sore by now. :)"

Appeal by female magistrate against her sentance

angry_young_men writes "Hey all, thought you might be interested in this story . It details the failed appeal by a female Australian magistrate (!) against her sentence for intimidating a male colleague. Get this pap from a female-inmate support-group mouthpiece: "She's experiencing the cruel and unusual punishment that every woman goes through in prison." Oh please - "cruel and unusual punishment" is intrinsically part and parcel of the female prison experience?"

Australian Child Support Agency misleads

Chas writes "The federal government's Child Support Agency makes the front page lead story in today's (28/6) edition of "The Weekend Australian". The Agency is responsible for calculating and monitoring child support payments for more than 1.2 million separated or divorced parents [read fathers]. The newpaper's investigations shows that the agency has mishandled or ignored hundreds of threats of assault, murder and suicide by angry parents. This state of affairs has been uncovered by the newspaper's investigations. Elsewhere in today's edition of the paper (see separate post) sympathetic coverage is given to fathers caught up in the child support/separation for children whirligig. Read the lead story here"

Lifespan gap narrows as men live longer

Rand T. writes "New findings by Britain's Continuous Mortality Investigation Bureau show that the gender lifespan gap is narrowing, and men may outlive
women by the end of the century.

These findings cast doubt on the cherished belief of women's greater lifespan being a biological advantage.

The gender lifespan gap, being highly correlated with environmental factors, shows the new focus on men's health brought about by the men's movement is justified and should continue.

Two articles about the new data:

Proposed Australian Family Law reform

Chas writes "In the 'Canberra Times' (24/7/03) Sue Price challenges the myths and 'statistics' trotted out by opponents to proposed reforms to family law designed to support equal parenting and more equitable arrangements for fathers. She especially targets the position of Chief Justice of the Family Court, Alastair Nicholson, and points out the flaws in his arguments. She argues that, under present law, "...fathers are sidelined; considered unimportant to
their children's wellbeing, apart from their ability to provide
monetary support, and allowed to see their children only one or two
days a fortnight." These developments in Australia will give courage to families in other jurisdiction. Read the article here"

Joe Scarborough does it again for us...twice

Mark writes "Joe Scarborough of MSNBC's Scarborough Country has become quite the leader in addressing men's issues lately. Within the past 2 weeks he has had feature stories on gender bias at the New York Times and discrimination against boys in school. On tonight's show are articles on a federally subsidized study on female arousal and one on...drumroll please...women being the PRIMARY AGGRESSORS in the majority of domestic violence cases."

Increasing number of SAHMs (and a few civil words for men!)

This article addresses the increasing number of Stay At Home Moms in the US. It focusses on the concerns of women but has some nice things to say about men and fathers. I particularly loved the ending, "Where will this lead? Not to Mommy Wars between moms who work and those who stay home, I hope, but toward a profound and shared recognition of the importance of mothering and of the husbands that give mothers the gift of choices."

Straus Refutes DV Myths Again - Will the Media Lis

Code Monkey writes "Murry Straus publishes more research again on dating violence in college aged men and women, as described in this UNH press release. From the release:


Straus says that while most of the assaults on dating partners by students are relatively minor, such as slapping and shoving a partner in anger, the rate of more dangerous assaults, such as punching, choking and attacks with weapons, although much lower, is still alarmingly high at 10 percent. Women assaulted their partners at about the same rate as male students did, Straus also found....The study also looks at the relation of the social context to crime, finding that a large percentage of students approved of slapping a partner's face in some circumstances. An average of 42 percent approved of a husband slapping his partner, while 76 percent said it was all right for a wife to slap her partner.

Please help to promote this study and get the media and public to accept the truth about domestic violence!"

Bizarre murder trial? No.

Matt writes "Look how our friends at MSN are covering this story

Note that the headline is: "Trial begins in bizarre traffic death". You can be sure it would not be that circumspect in judgment were the defendant male and the victim female (the reverse is true in this case).

Her lawyer stated in his opening that his client was "...hysterical, terrorized and confused." Um, excuse me? She had a dead or dying person on her car's hood which she got into and drove homeward after she had been drinking and drugging-- and this is how her lawyer makes her out to be? Can you imagine the same being used to describe a male perp and a female victim-- imagine this being said in a court under the same circumstances: "He was hysterical, terrorized and confused." It isn't imaginable, is it? It'd never happen.

Then, she called her friends to help her move the dead/dying man off her car and later dump his body in a park. They obliged her. Well, what's that saying, "Friends help you move, real friends help you move bodies"? Guess she has some real friends, all right.

Well, read the article for yourself. Wanna bet that no way in hell does she get the death sentence for it? Now had a man done this-- well, we know what they'd do to him. I am guessing she maybe gets 10-20, tops. Likely she'll be out in 8 if she even gets that much time. She'll be like the other women who kill men in Texas and all but get away with it.

I am never going to Texas. It seems to me it's too dangerous for men-- right up there with marriage and children."

UK: No protection for men accused of fatherhood

With fatherhood having been deconstructed into something tantamount to a criminal offense, the government of the United Kingdom is now set to prevent men from using DNA evidence to prove their innocence. If a woman chooses to declare that you are the father of her child, she will be able to have your paycheck attached to take your income. If you try to prevent her from taking your money, the government will track you down as a "deadbeat dad" and imprison you.


Serves you right, guys. You've committed the ultimate crime in a matriarchy—you are in possession of a Y chromosome.
