'There is growing awareness of how young men can be drawn into far-right extremism or misogynistic subcultures, but we in the media—and society more broadly—pay less attention to how young women become drawn into political subcultures. Indeed, the terms “radicalization” and “women” are rarely—if ever—seen together. This oversight has consequences, because radicalization—defined as rigid commitment to an ideological cause to the point where it distorts one’s worldview, harms mental health, undermines relationships, or disrupts functioning—is not a male-only phenomenon.

Of course, political engagement is not, in itself, cause for concern. The fact that young women attend climate protests or BLM marches is not evidence of extremism. But if we imagine political engagement on a spectrum, the extreme end is not benign. And the failure to recognize this has allowed radicalism to flourish.

'In this context, while the global discourse on online misogyny is well-established the phenomenon of misandry remains a relatively underexplored and insufficiently acknowledged facet of the researched digital landscape.
...
This said, despite concerted efforts have been made to address hate speech targeting women and misogyny in broad sense, research on online misandry remains relatively scarce, thus not contributing in mitigating existing stereotypes and misconceptions. As an example, Nadim et al. show that more men than women experience online harassment, contrary to prevailing assumptions.
...
In this work, we investigate the dynamics of misogynistic and misandric communities on Reddit. Our examination entails a comprehensive analysis of linguistic features, the extraction of emotional nuances embedded within the textual content, and a structural graph-based analysis.'

'The Australian woman, 24, pleaded guilty to one count of burning, maiming, disfiguring or disabling a person by use of a corrosive fluid.

She was given a sentence to seven-and-a-half-years in prison and would spend a minimum of four-and-a-half-years behind bars.

The convicted friend is now challenging the severity of her sentence. She submitted a notice of intention to appeal with the Court of Criminal Appeal on June 13.'

'Is Chivalry dead? After a grown man practically trampled me to get on the bus recently, I’d be inclined to say yes.

He was in a suit and fun socks (boring finance bros tend to think quirky socks make them look fun), and he was on the verge of elbowing me to get a seat.

I was unnerved by his rugby scrum approach to public transport, it was a bit much for 8 a.m. and buses come every 10 minutes – but I wasn’t shocked

It wasn’t very chivalrous, but is that even a thing anymore? Is men letting women go first on public transport a dead concept?

Did it die when we started advocating for fair pay and the rights to our bodies? Is the price of equality that men just aren’t that polite anymore?

I want equal pay and men to follow the Titanic rule of women and children first.'

Read this article and note women aren't even mentioned as being even a remote possibility for Congressional action on a possible draft-- not that I think it's likely to happen anyway. Remarkable, isn't it? Excerpt:

'Legislation would need to be passed through Congress amending the Military Selective Service Act in order to reinstate a draft, according to the Selective Service Agency.

In 2015, then New York Democratic Representative Charles Rangel introduced a bill to re-instate a draft alongside a "War Tax" bill to point out the inequity of war as then President Barack Obama attempted to galvanize support for an Authorization for Use of Military Force against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
...
Currently, all men between 18 to 25 are required to register with the Selective Service System.

The Selective Service Agency states that, should a draft be reinstated, the first to receive induction orders would be those whose turn 20 years old during the year of the lottery.

'Feminism is a HATE GROUP.

Feminists claim they do not hate men, and yet there is absolutely no evidence to back up their assertion. The library is full of books containing hateful denouncements of men, hateful rhetoric aimed at men, and hateful attitudes and beliefs about men. Feminists routinely excoriate men both publicly, online, in books and media, and even in general entertainment. For people who claim to love men so much- I say PROVE IT.
...
Feminists don’t do anything for men– ever. Unless it somehow benefits Feminists *more*, first and foremost. The only thing that Feminists have for men is the back of their hand and their denouncements and slander and ugly vilification– the constant daily sludge of “Women Good, Men Bad” which oozes out of every media orifice.

'She’s not kidding around.

Former first lady Michelle Obama said she was “glad” she didn’t have a son because he would have turned out exactly like her husband, former President Barack Obama.

Obama, 61, doled out the ego-checking barb on Wednesday’s episode of “IMO,” the podcast she hosts with her brother Craig Robinson, as the siblings were chatting with Hot 97 radio personality Angie Martinez, who suggested the mother of two “should have threw a boy in the mix.”

“I’m so glad I didn’t have a boy,” Sasha and Malia’s mom plainly stated.

“Because he would have been a Barack Obama. Ooh,” the “Becoming” author said, looking down and shaking her head for emphasis.
...
The episode focused extensively on parenting male children as Martinez has one son and Robinson has three boys.'

'Asked what the key priorities for Government should be to support men’s mental health and prevent male suicide, Mr Repacholi highlighted the need for more services to be tailored to the needs and preferences of men and boys.

”First, we need strong, local mental health services that men feel comfortable using,” he said, before adding that the sector was already doing incredible work.'

'Karen Read, a US woman charged with running over her police officer boyfriend and leaving him for dead in a snowbank, has been found not guilty of second-degree murder in a case that gripped true-crime fans nationwide.

The jury also found Ms Read, 44, not guilty of vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and leaving the scene of the collision in January 2022. But she was convicted of operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol (OUI).

Her July 2024 trial stemming from the death of Boston police officer John O'Keefe collapsed after the jury was unable to reach a verdict.

She again pleaded not guilty in the retrial, with her lawyers arguing she was being framed for Mr O'Keefe's death.'

'When completed, Brook House in Acton will provide 102 "genuinely affordable" social rented flats, replacing an old 39-home estate. The cost of renting a home will be on average less than a quarter of what it would cost to rent an equivalently sized home in the private sector.

Ealing Council currently has more than 600 single women on its waiting list and over 8,000 households in the borough waiting for a home. The tenants will be a mixture of women from the council waiting list and residents put forward by Women's Pioneer Housing, which will manage the site.

Women's Pioneer Housing was founded in 1920 by suffragists. It manages around 1,000 properties in West London, most of which are studio or one-bedroom flats in large converted Victorian or Edwardian buildings.'

Article here. Men need to be aware of the strategies and tactics used by women in terms of relational aggression. They use it against each other and against men. Excerpt:

'Relational aggression is the psychologist’s name for what the rest of us call ‘mean girl’ behaviour, or straight-up ‘bitchiness’. It is a pattern of behaviour typically played out by school-age girls, but it is not exclusive to them. In fact, where do they learn it if not from their adult role models? Adults are just more subtle about it.

Chances are, you’ve experienced relational aggression. You know it when it happens to you. It’s an emotional slap in the face and you often feel a sense of shame and confusion.

What distinguishes relational aggression from just being mean, is that it focuses on damaging a person’s sense of social place. I see it as using relationships as weapons.'

'We don’t talk about it much on Father’s Day, but we should: when dads disappear, children pay the price. Boys lose their guide for channeling power responsibly. Girls lose their first experience of what it feels like to be ​loved and respected by a good man.

The numbers bear it out: more school dropouts, more juvenile crime, more emotional struggles. A father’s absence ripples outward for generations.'

'Those in a similar position who are still in jail could soon see some relief in Georgia. A new law passed in Georgia called the Survivor Justice Act would allow domestic violence survivors to ask for lower sentences in court if they can present evidence that abuse led them to commit their crimes. Under the law, Dickens' sentence could have been as little as 10 years.

Republican state Rep. Stan Gunter sponsored the bill, which passed overwhelmingly in Georgia's Legislature and was signed by Gov. Brian Kemp last month.

"We weren't looking at the whole picture. We were just getting bits and pieces of it, and it wasn't enough to make a good, clear decision on how to treat these people," Gunter said.

"This is not a get out of jail free card. They still have to serve a portion of the sentence," he added.'

'A House Ways and Means Committee hearing took an unexpected turn Wednesday when Rep. Linda Sanchez, D.Calif., accused Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent of interrupting her because of her gender—prompting audible groans from the room.

When Bessent attempted to interject, Sanchez quickly cut him off: "Please don’t interrupt me… I know I’m a woman, but please try to limit yourself to answering my questions."

That remark prompted groans from the hearing room, with one attendee audibly reacting, "Oh, come on." Sanchez responded: "No, I’m sorry, but we get talked over all the time, and I don’t want that to happen at this hearing."'

Article here. Excerpt:

'MPs on the cross-party committee chaired by Labour MP Sarah Owen will examine the rise of the manosphere and its influence on misogynistic behaviour and attitudes online and offline. The session will also look at the emerging use of artificial intelligence (AI) and how this is facilitating misogyny, and the links between the misuse of AI and the manosphere.

Discussion is expected to focus on non-consensual intimate image abuse (NCII) through deepfakes, linked to the Committee’s current and prior work on NCII abuse, and other aspects of Bates’ research, including bias in artificial intelligence.

WEC’s inquiry explores the prevalence and impact of misogynistic views, attitudes and behaviour among men and boys, particularly in schools and educational settings, and the reasons for this. It examines ways that boys and young men are also being harmed and if better support, activities and services need to be available to them.'
