I'm noticing in the odd comments sections etc in news papers that they are now pushing for sexual harrassment laws in the public.

Which means and if the laws created are as subjective of the laws in the office that a man can be charged for merely looking at a woman. Cat calling, whistling and all around just hitting on a woman.

Fascism at its finest. People who benifit??? Lawyers, courts , police, judges, and any off shoots of criminal processing. Men like my former Professor Dr Desmond Ellis, who himself was pushing for this law. And much like other areas in this feild he stands to make a tremendeous amount of cash from.

The jailing systems, victims services, etc... ad nauseum.

Pavlov's Feminists Bells will ring and large bodies of women's advocates will push to force this law.

Dan:

That's outrageous. I'm curious to know if that is just in Canada. I have not heard of any such law proposed here in the U.S., yet, but each new week brings another oppressive surprise from the gender feminist camp.

A while back I was in Sacramento and took a picture of our State's Capitol. I inserted the picture into microsoft word and added the words CALIFORNIA IS A SEXIST, HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT AGAINST MEN (above picture), and State Capitol, Sacramento, California (below picture). I printed the whole thing out on a T-shirt transfer from Staples and ironed it on to a T-shirt. As a quick aside, I just noticed that Canada and California have the same abbreviation, CA.

Here's the fun part, I wear the T-shirt in public in Los Angeles every chance I get. It's a real conversation generator. You wouldn't believe all the guys who come up to me and make positive remarks or give a thumbs up. So far I haven't gotten a single negative response. I carry an information flyer or two in my wallet (to back up the claim on my T-shirt) and so far have given out a bunch. A few of the women respond with puzzlement, but many, many have had fathers, sons, grandsons, brothers, and 2nd husbands who have been abused by the tyranny of the gender feminist agenda. It is absolutely amazing to me when these females reveal to me that they know what's going on and thank me for speaking up.

I got a beautiful picture of downtown City Hall in L.A. a week or so back and, "you guessed it," another T-shirt.

It is an amazing contrast to see the responsiveness of the people compared to the non-responsiveness of politicians and their gender feminist ilk.

It appears to me that the big gender feminist snow job is not garnering a lot of support in the court of public opinion these days. How long it will take to translate that into change in the political arena is anybody's guess. Every T-shirt helps.

As with a lot of causes, I think this one is a sleeping giant. Lots of men and women and boys and girls are on our side, but each one thinks (s)he's the only one who's noticed this.

I know that was the case for me, before I started searching through feminism-related websites. I still remember how amazed and thrilled I was to find out that I wasn't the only one.

Wow, that is unbelievable Ray. And I have given that idea to others before. In fact I'd like to make a post dedicated to your type of activism and give you the chance to put some of your experiences out there on a direct post.

This is exactly what is needed. And, as I have said over and over on this board, women, directly are not the enemy. The enemy is the media and those who control it. All we have to do is wake the "proles" so to speak. The people around us.

Granted some women will be offended, some men will be offended. The key issue here is that the word gets out. Feminism has become totalitarian, as we can see in Canada. The contry is in control by judges and the PM in a dictator style breach of trust. This is scary.

People need to see this type of thing Ray, and they need to know the facts. No matter what we do, feminists just keep putting spins and pounding the media with their one sidedness. The big problem here is the lack of public address or debate.

Since it is my belief that Feminism *HATES* women as much as it hates men, we should be looking to women for their help in this. Democrate, Liberal, Conservative, Moderate whatever. Even the gay and lesbian foundations can have the same vested interest that the men's movement has. It is 'Freedom of Speech' that has allowed homosexuals to advance in the world. And it will be 'Freedom of Speech' that will protect them in this world.

Laws should be cut and simplified not complicated and over used. They should serve the whole of society not just the lawyers and administrators who are paid by it.

If I had my way I'd bankrupt the system just to start over again. I don't know if thats the answer anymore.

Now in regards to the sexual harrassment laws. Well, this is something that creeps up in the media. Its shown in articles and opinion columns. Proffesors bitch about in women's studies or socialist feminist classes or where ever.

As my article on Pavlov's Feminists points out, this is how they can slip in new legislations. They ring the bells and get women to froth. They replace women's thoughts with their own agenda and condition women on how to respond reflexively to acts, or scenarios.

Once apon a time a woman may have leapt at a man cat calling her for joy. Now, with the push, they are conditioning women to be repulsed by it, and in a political dog feast to because advocates to criminalize such acts.

In the end, it was never about women, it was about the legal system looking for another cash cow to process the system and jailhouse men.

Thanks Dan, I keep telling myself I'm going to get more orgnized, finish those other three signs for the truck, clean up my living room, but then we're out there on another good project. It has slowed down the past couple of weeks with the heat so maybe I can get a little caught up. I did get most of the 60 or so protest sign sayings that we have on a sheet and I was going to send them to our NCFMLA web site, but haven't yet. I did notice last week that there are some new things on NCFMLA.org The guy running that has been busy on projects too. Maybe as summer roles on we'll get some more out.

One our guys said just yesterday he wanted to go to Sacramento and table the Recall Davis Rally there having there in about a week. One of the big strengths of our group is the we have a Republican, a Democrat, a Liberterian, a Green Party member so we go to each party and ask, hey what are you doing for men's issues, men's rights. Additionally we belong to the VFW, black churches, other churches, one guy, is athiest. Again we go to each and talk about men's issues. The word is getting out and in a place like L.A. every day brings a new opportunity to interact with new factions and form new allies.

Would it be fair to say that college campuses with women's studies programs are SEXIST HOSTILE ENVIRONMENTS AGAINST MEN?

...and our tax dollars pay to oppress me and other men based on the lies taught there. Wow!

Exactly. I don't think we emphasise sufficiently the crucial role that "womens' studies" departments have played, and still play, in feminaziism. Nests of lesbian feminazis are given all the resources they need to disseminate their ideas. Thus they are given full time employment, library facilities, communication facilities, publishing facilities etc. etc. There are THOUSANDS of these departments in America. I have trawled the web looking for a genuine Mens Studies department (ie not feminist controlled)-I have yet to find one.
