I'm thinking that a good lawyer would make the following case:
Boyfriend is injured (males are more likely than females to be abused in dating relationships)
Girlfriend has this book/kit
Therefore, injury was not only intentional, but hate motivated and therefore a greater crime. Under Canadian law the minimum sentance would move from a $500 fine to two years in prison.
I wonder if women KNOW that?

You guys just don't understand the law. You can only NOT hate protected classes. Just as you can only be racist towared blacks, jews, natives americans....
The laws are against the dreaded patricarchy because we are in total control of the government. Of course how those laws got passed is kinda confusing.....

Border's has this item in their catalogue but they do not normally keep it in inventory, according to the young man I just spoke with at the store in Princeton NJ. They DO have the accompanying book. I had limit my rage somewhere. This fellow I spoke with was happy to order it for me, and when I told him that I regarded it as good news that they don't have it, he indicated that he was somewhat insulted by the title. I invited him to visit us at MANN next time he's surfing the web.

This reminds me of the book which was all the rage a few years back The Rules. It was basically a manual on how to manipulate, deceive, connive etc men into marriage (and get a nice hefty ring in the process).
The thing that I found so funny about this book was that it was very popular among Conservative, non-feminist type women. Yet "feminists" are the usual suspects who are hauled out to prove women have a low regard for men.
In my experience, most non-feminist women I've encountered have a very low opinion of men. They tend to think of them as sources of wealth and/or as "pets" who they can manipulate to do their bidding.
One thing that has always baffled me is that these type of women, the so-called "traditional values" women seem very popular among men. These are the women who are most highly sought after in college and the ones the better educated, more well-off men pursue. They buy expensive gifts and rings which they can sometimes barely afford even at their relatively high economic level. (Seems whatever economic level the man is he is expected to buy a ring at least 2-3 times more than what he can realistically afford). In college I would hear engaged women evaluating a man's worth as a "catch" based on the ring he was convinced (coerced is more like it) to buy.
These are the same women who judge a man's worth by his possesions, you know, his car, his watch, his clothes, his stock portfolio.
Maybe someone here can enlighten me why these types of women seem so sought after by the higher paid, higher educated men? I've always wondered about this.

I remember reading an awful letter in Abby or Ann Landers awhile back. It was written by a mother who said she would not approve of her precious little princess marrying any man who did not prove his ability to provide for Princess by buying a ring worth at least [some ridiculously high dollar amount].
Ohhhhhh, it would be true justice if Princess grew up to be a bench-pressing, pierced, tatooed, one-hair-away-from-transsexual diesel dyke.

Not me! My BF is not only a great sensitive guy, but he's one of my best friends. I am NEVER manipulative with him. My opinion is if you feel the urge to buy the "kit", you're too immature to be dealing with the other sex in the first place. Men aren't pigs or dogs or anything of the sort. They're PEOPLE, dammit!
"Female men's activist" is not an oxymoron.
