So, why are so many women single today? I am certain there are different opinions to that query than whats being offered by Whitehead's book. Perhaps they should consider asking some men on this. You know, to add to the whole perspective."

Uberganger writes "Germaine Greer, the feminist 'icon', has written a new book "challenging conventional views on child pornography". Called 'The Boy', it specifically focuses on boys as objects of sexual desire. It is astonishing that, in the current sexual climate, anyone would consider producing such a book. At the same time it seems consistent with a kind of deliberate perversity in relation to boys, to their depiction and treatment, that seems to be growing up in the wake of the wholesale denigration of men. Sick. A related article on sexual assault to boys by older women is here"

After some rough times starting late last December, the iFeminists web site stopped being maintained due to a lack of funding. Fortunately, Wendy McElroy has found support from the Independent Institute, and the web site is slowly being rebuilt again. Note that the main web site is now iFeminists.net - the .org and .com domains now redirect to the new location. If you haven't checked out their site, please do so - this is not your typical group of anti-male feminists.

This NY Times article (free reg. req) talks about how "circumcision opponents use the legal system and legislatures." Must read.

Dan Lynch writes "This story is specifically about Mark Edward Dexel, but it plays of so many men's lives it could be anyone of us. This man committed suicide because he could no longer fight the system. He felt beaten so he decided to hang himself. Mark left a note to explain his reasons and he aptly blames the system."

westcoast writes "There is movement to remove the anonimity of sperm donors...

It occured to me that if Mother's commit Paternity Fraud then this may challenge the idea of 'In the best interests of the child' raised when DNA tests show a Man is not the real father.

Is it possible to argue that Paternity Fraud and Sperm donation are similar?

From the BBC news coverage....

"Those who favour change argue that children born as a result of donor insemination can be psychologically damaged by discovering in later life that they will never know their biological father."

Of course in Paternity Fraud they can know their biological father, if the Mother reveals it and puts an end to the Fraud."

Dan Lynch writes "Since Feburary is the month of Erin Pizzey's birthday I would like to post as much of her writings and contributions as I can find. If you don't already know who Erin is I will link her bio here. I feel its very important that we all get to know this dynamic woman who has challenged adversity for decades for the sole purpose of improving our lives. Both men and women."

CJ writes "Actress Jane Fonda has pulled back most of a $12.5 million pledge to Harvard's Graduate School of Education, ending the school's plans for a major research center on gender in education. Fonda's intent was to study the focus of education as it relates to girls only, despite the fact that during the past two decades, most (all?) gender specific studies have been on girls. The most influential study done on gender in education was by Carol Gilligan, which lacked empirical support to back up her claims (even today she still will not provide her research for analysis). Perhaps academic honesty prevailed here, as the media claims that Fonda had to 'scale back'' the project because of concerns about the economy. I think the truth is that some of her money may have benefited boys, who are the only known casualty of the impact feminism has had on secondary education, so Jane pulled her money out."

fightbigotry2002 writes "When politics decides who is guilty.
This article is a study of the systematic nature in which the Maryland legal system bends the rules to ensure a predetermined outcome in civil cases. It is not enough to complain in a general manner that men as a group are discriminated against, we must understand how a system works to inform the public. When we make general complaints we are in danger of trivializing the true nature of what we face as a society. It is not just men or any target group who are loosing their civil rights, it's all of us. If we can not overcome the excuse by government to discriminate then we all have lost our civil liberties. Have so many died in 200+ years to fight tyranny only to lose that freedom by the tap of the gavel?"

SJones writes "A female track star stabbed her married boyfriend to death. She only received a sentece of one year for her violent crime. The article made a point of accusing the male victim of domestic violence in an obvious attempt to justify her murderous attack. The article is here"

Anon writes "Hi! I came across a web page for a UK Human Genetics Commission plenary meeting.

http://www.hgc.gov.uk/business_meetings_05february .htm

Is this meeting to discuss the topic of regulating men's access to parentage testing services?

a.k.a. http://www.ukmm.org.uk/issues/shame/hgc.htm

Is there anyone out there interested in this meeting? Going to the meeting? If so, I'd appreciate being contacted." Dan's note: Hopefully this person will make themselves known on the board, but; I feel this topic needs to be explored immediately. With men's views and choices always taking a back seat we should always be up to date on new relative issues. Thanks for your understanding.

warble writes "Attention ALL California Paternity Fraud victims! I have reviewed all of the tapes from the legislative sessions that took place last year. As everybody knows we need a champion to push paternity fraud legislation in the California 2003 legislative session. I believe that John Longville is that perfect candidate. THIS MAN GETS IT! P
John Longville is the ONLY person on the Committee of the Judiciary that stood up to the bigotry that men face. He identified the issue and went after the issue like a bulldog!

Please send your FAX now requesting him to be our champion for paternity fraud legislation. I believe John Longville is a major fighter and will fight for the rights of paternity fraud victims. You can view his web site here: Assemblymember Longville

All of the information necessary to send letters and faxes are there. You can even call if you like. Please appraise him for his exposure of the bigotry that paternity fraud victims face and encourage him to be our champion.

Thanks,

Warble"
