Dan Lynch writes "Here is an article(just click on BBC and Gender Feminsim) written by Melanie Philips who takes the BBC to task in regards to new segments that are appearing in coming weeks. Melanie points out many of the atrocities that the BBC perpetuate for the myths of domestic violence. How monopoly networks can maintain status quo and politically demonize men wholesale. Another Journalist (Jennie Bristow) points out the flaws of 'Hitting Home' campaign in her article"A Licence to Indoctrinate". With the indoctrination tactics and the fearmongering designed to make us suspicious of our partners. She alludes that the government is trying to invade our homes. Which is something I blatently state."

SJones writes "A male state senator in Iowa has proposed a Commission on the Status of Men to balance the female supremacist Commission on the Status of Womyn. In the article a female supremacist legislator is given more space for her harassment of him than his proposal receives. And the fact that a Commission for Womyn already exists is also conveniently left out of the biased article. The article is posted in Oddly Enough News rather than in the real news as a final kick in the crotch to all men everywhere. Nevertheless, the article is posted and can be found here.

We need to do whatever we can to support this Iowa state senator in his efforts to obtain some equality for men. He is going to need whatever we can give him in standing up to the feminist political machine."

Boy Genteel writes "I found this piece from a columnist at UC-Santa Barbara that endorsed domestic violence towards males as a way to heighten later sexual pleasure. Below is my angry letter to the newspaper.

"Beth Van Dyke is a sexist hypocrite. In her November 13 column, she suggested that couples should get into arguments and shouting matches so that they could later have rough "make-up sex".

She specifically condemned the act of a man smacking a woman around "like an inflatable doll", but she proved earlier that she has zero credibility, as she outright endorsed the act of a woman slapping a man"...

"NO ONE, big or small, female or male, should tolerate being physically assaulted. It appears that Beth Van Dyke sorely needs to learn that members of the male gender are also not to be treated like inflatable dolls."

Now do your worst, mensactivism gang!

Dan Lynch writes "To draw political comics based on men's issues. I can come up with the writing and the ideas but would need someone to draw them. It would be a good idea for email campaigns as well as to be held on file on some web site. Obviously there is no money, its all volunteer, but; it will be a good , quick and easy way to get points across hopefully in an interesting and humorous fashion."

I will host this week's MANN chat, Wednesday night (2/19),
starting at 9:30 PM Eastern Time, at the href="http://www.mensactivism.org/chat.shtml">usual location. The
topic for this chat will be "Attacking Misandry on Campus."   In a
recent essay, href="http://www.glennjsacks.com">Glenn Sacks artfully described
some of the problems college men face on campus.  Those problems
are rooted in misandry and happen not just on college and university
campuses, but in elementary schools and high schools as well.
 From labeling young boys as "proto-rapists" and "proto-harassers"
to inviting notorious man-hating women to speak at graduation
ceremonies, misandry is alive and well in the academy.  Wanna do
something about it?  Join us at tonight's MANN chat to discuss
strategies for dealing with misandry on campus.  See you there!

Men's Issues columnist Glenn Sacks blasts college misandry in his latest piece "The Best Valentine's Day Gift for College Students: Gender Reconciliation." In it he vivdly describes what he calls "modern collegiate America's darkest hour"--misandrist feminist Catherine MacKinnon's Yale commencement address.

Dan Lynch writes "It is my opinion that the men's movement should know everything it can about the media and how it works. A quote from an article I came across " If it's not on television, it never happened. Out of sight, out of mind."(May explain the voicelessness of men's issues). Now this article, about a 10 minute read, may not have identical opinions to everyone, but the framework of what the author is saying stands true. The Author shows the bass work of how television can develope mass opinions and how those opinions can translate into formalized thought control. Men feel more and more they are being reduced to a wallet or a slave in the menial sence. Their civil liberties being shortchanged. I think this article is certianly up for debate and a must read. "Jack Kerouac once noted," remarks the author, "while walking down a residential street at night, glancing into living rooms lit by the gray glare of television sets, that we have become a world of people "thinking the same thoughts at the same time."""

Anonymous User writes "BBC reports that the "Indian Supreme Court has ruled that anyone who inflicts fatal injuries to the testicles should face first-degree murder charges."

Steve writes "This is a column I wrote for the Daily Orange, the college newspaper of Syracuse University. It is about the negative aspects of V-Day, the anti-male propaganda holiday originated by Eve Ensler that takes place on Valentine's Day at college campuses all across the country. "V-Day" is a misguided attempt to empower women through hateful statistics that furthers the men-as-abusers stereotype." Free registration is required to read.

Anonymous writes "A Boston Globe article addresses some positive health news for men: men are apparently living longer, and the gender gap among living senior citizens is narrowing. However, the article seems to more or less ignore the main reason to celebrate this news - namely, that men are living longer. Instead, it almost exclusively discusses the ways in which this would clearly benefit women. Great! If you are male, social "scientists" will celebrate your longevity - but only if doing so helps and assists your wife. Thanks for the concern! We've all heard it already - it's best not to be too much of a burden. (FYI, this article is very reminiscent of past articles that I have seen regardig the dearth of men on cellege campuses, focusing exclusively on how this reduces the "qualified" dating pool of men available for -you guessed it - women!) Here is the article. The author can be reached here: dembner@globe.com"

WORKING in Seattle writes "
As you can see from this link, Dodge has joined the male bashing league with a minivan billboard advertisement that states: "Gets more done than most husbands." Can you imagine the media firestorm and feminist backlash if the word Husbands was replace with Wives? Even better, how about a billboard with an advertisement from Playboy with the statement: "Get more pleasure than with your wife!" YOW!

No fewer than (2) of these billboard are within a couple of hundred feet of my workplace. It has several thousand, hard-working husbands who work everyday, year after year, to bring home the cash for their families. What's next for men if this can be put up by a major US corporation?"

jll1024 writes "

I found this article on AskMen.com. It's a letter and a response concerning male-bashing in the media. I think it's important to note that AskMen.com may be one of the web's most visited site concerning general men's issues, and that the reality of a feminized culture is being exposed by a mainstream media source.

Please write to AskMen.com and thank them and encourage them to continue writing without fear of women who fear men."

Doug writes "Clara Harris, the dentist who killed her husband after finding him with another woman, has been found gulity! It is interesting to me that in a case this clear it took over eight hours to reach that verdict. None the less, this is still a victory. Here's the link to a local news story." Here's also a link to the sentencing

Raymond Cuttill writes "We're hoping to revive the Masculist Anthology, originally proposed by Nightmist. We're looking to get men's writers to submit articles on issues ranging from divorce through education through male health through false accusations (to name but four) with a view to publishing later this year.

Ray writes "Cathy Young's new article appears on MND, and is about the alleged murder of Dr. David Harris by Dr. Clara Harris. Ms Young appears to take a reasonably objective and balanced approach to the story, and even goes so far in her closing sentence as to allude to this incident as domestic violence. That is something I have not noticed any other journalist do so far. One can only wonder whether the words contained in the heated debate on mensactivism over her last story (CA Rape Ruling) have had some influence over her balance and objectivity in this story. Hummm???"
