News It seems that actor William Baldwin has decided to try and save the wrestling program at Binghamton University. You can read a short article about it here, and you can also read letters sent out by Mr Baldwin to the wrestling community and university president Lois DeFleur here.

it's funny how the feminazi organizations and Title IX are NOT mentioned. This wrestling program has been going since before William Baldwin went there and could always be afforded, but NOW it can't be. Bullshit and horsefeathers, it's Title IX, but everyone is afraid of litigation and so doesn't say so. Once again the lace curtain comes slamming down and hides what is going on. No wonder most of the country has no idea about the Title IX issue. And give THIS some thought: if you were attending this, or any other college, that had been hit with Title IX's "proportionality" bullshit, and you asked the coach, athletic director, or one of your dean's WHY these programs were being cut: do you think you would be informed as to the REAL reason? No, of course not, they fear retaliation. If they say outload that Title IX is killing sports for men they can get in trouble as the college fears litigation. And so you, the student, don't know where to put your energy to fight this. If you are not informed of the truth of WHY a decision is made, then you cannot defeat it. So the college mentions the state's "budget deficit" and anyone not in the men's movement will buy it. The fear the Feminazis use and their litigious arms are what's keeping the issues hidden as to their true agenda.

My guess is that he might be hearing about men's issues for the first time. Even though a lot of us have known and talked about these perspectives for years, the majority is still completely unaware of them. In this case I'm guessing what happened was he got word that they were closing the wrestling program at his old college and so he decided to investigate and that's when he first found out about title IX and why some people oppose it.

We ought to reach out to this guy, if someone has a connection, and find out where he's at on gender isues. Lately, the conservatives among hollyweird's eleite have started to come out of the woodwork a little bit. Whether you're conservative or not, you have to agree that htis is an unsual circumstance. Maybe a few will actually come out in favor of gender equality.
