Supreme Court: Indian women won't make false rape claim

Article here. Excerpt:

'Mumbai: In an observation that could have far-reaching implications in the prosecution of rape cases, the Supreme Court recently observed that an Indian woman would never make a false allegation of rape, given the social stigma attached to it. This is likely to bolster the cases of rape victims and may have a bearing on recent cases involving actor Shiney Ahuja and Shree Ram Mills scion Abhishek Kasliwal.

“In Indian society, any girl or woman would not make such allegations (of rape) against a person as she is fully aware of the repercussions flowing therefrom. If she is found to be false (sic), she would be looked at by society with contempt throughout her life,” the apex court observed.

'Mancession' Takes Toll on Working Women

Article here. Excerpt:

'(Jan. 23) – Women are about to claim majority status in the American workplace, sounding the bell on a number of decades-old feminist goals. At last, we're financially independent, professionally respected, in charge of both men and ourselves. But even before we've cleared that milestone, we're ready to give it all back.

Isn't that just like a woman, a man might say.

A recent Pew study found that an increasing number of women express ambivalence about sharing the job market equally with men. Nearly two-thirds of working mothers now say they'd prefer their jobs be part time, up from 48 percent just 10 years ago. Only 37 percent are content with working full time.

'Help Choose Nine Women to Run the World'

Article here. Excerpt:

'I recently came up with an idea: that it would be revelatory to ask as many women who were willing to “nominate” our next world leaders: to choose who, among women, they’d put forward to lead the world. This seems more apt than ever, given last week’s decision by the Supreme Court, which may guarantee even more corporate sponsorship of our elected officials.

What do you think? Is it time for us to start imagining a new kind of world, since this one ain’t working? Is it time for us to try a different approach —say, give the other gender a chance at running things?

Most in the handful of women I polled, of all ages, would like to see women given a chance at piloting the ship for a while. We’ve had men in the majority in just about every area of governance and power — everywhere on the planet. If women were in charge, would things improve? How about The Nine, an international court of women — enlightened governance?

Tennessee Woman Accused in Trail of Death

Story here. Excerpt:

'But almost everyone has an opinion on how he ended up there. Mr. Leath, 57, was found dead of a gunshot wound in his own bed in 2003. His wife, Raynella Dossett Leath, said it was a suicide, but she was ultimately charged with murder. Her dramatic trial last year gripped the city, but it ended in a hung jury. Last week, she went on trial again.

The trail of death in the case, however, does not begin and end with a beloved barber, but winds its way up to the highest levels of law enforcement in this city. There was a fatal car crash, a love child, a missing will and, strangest of all, the 1992 death, officially by cattle stampede, of the Knox County prosecutor, Ed Dossett, who happened to be Ms. Dossett Leath’s first husband at the time.

Investigate Abusegate: Call Sen. Hatch TODAY!

Each year, 2-3 million restraining orders are issued in the United States (1). But according to one study, 70% of those orders are unnecessary or false (2).

The Violence Against Women Act bankrolls the issuance of millions of restraining orders, for which there is little proof of benefit, and which, according to the Independent Women’s Forum, only “lull women into a false sense of security.” This week our lobbyists are working Capitol Hill, asking our elected officials to “Investigate Abusegate!”

One of the key supporters of VAWA over the years has been Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah. Sen. Hatch views VAWA as one of his legacies. Really? Then Sen. Hatch should be leading the charge to find out exactly how the Violence Against Women Act got sidetracked.

CALL TODAY! Call Sen. Hatch’s office at (202) 224-5251. Or send him an email via http://hatch.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=Offices.Contact. The message to Sen. Hatch only needs to be 5 words long: “Investigate Abusegate! Fix VAWA Now!”

The Domestic Violence Industry’s War on Men

Article here. Excerpt:

'By painting all males as brutes, feminists hope to reduce half the population to a state of dhimmitude.

January 21, 2010 - by Barbara Kay

The industry that has grown up around domestic violence (DV), or, as it is more precisely situated these days in research circles, intimate partner violence (IPV), began in good faith decades ago as a legitimate campaign to help women trapped in abusive relationships.

Over the years, as the triumphalist feminist revolution’s long march through the institutions of the West proceeded with eerily unchallenged vigor, DV emerged as a highly politicized touchstone justifying women’s entitlements — legal, economic, familial — at the expense of boys’ and men’s human rights.

A tipping point in the DV chronology, when the focus amongst militant feminists shifted from helping individual women to the more totalitarian ambition of reducing the male population to cultural dhimmitude, can be traced back in time to December 6, 1989, and in space to a school two miles north of my front door.

Story here. Excerpt:

'A DAD cleared of claims he sexually abused his kids is now hitting back at his ex wife.

The man is accusing his ex-wife of perjury, assault and threatening to kill.

The legal action, believed to be a first for Victoria, will set a controversial precedent and could open the floodgates to similar cases.

He was eventually acquitted, but the ordeal cost him his job, his home and about $450,000 in lost income and legal costs. The case is also based on similar accusations of sexual abuse of their children made by the ex-wife during a bitter Family Court battle.

'Why I Give to Women-Focused Relief Organizations'

'When the earthquake hit Haiti last week I decided to direct my giving toward CARE, an organization that focuses its work on women. Some will question why I don't give right to the Red Cross, a very worthy organization. The honest answer is that I want to give my money to an organization who will put women and mothers as a priority. It's not a sexist statement, as much as a truth that reflects our gendered world.

Israel: Feminists Robbing Dead Bodies For Sperm

Article here. Excerpt:

'So, think you have seen it all? You have seen nothing yet. The immorality and disgracefulness of the Feminist movement have now reached a new record high. We have already got used to the fact that feminists make men's lives bitter. However, when we died, feminists used to leave us alone. Well, so it was until recently. Nowadays, feminists have also taken away the privilege men used to have, to die in peace.

When a men dies, it is possible to pump out sperm of the dead body. If the pumping is done within 24 hours from the time of death, the sperm can be used to fertilize a woman. There is only one problem - the man is dead. Which means that you cannot ask him whether or not he agrees to be a father.

Student: ‘Beating So Bad Thought I Was Going To Die’

Story here. A man need not even be suspected of DV to get charged (of what crime-it seems it matters not), tried, found guilty, and punished by severe beating, all in one fell swoop, and by police officers no less. (No judges need apply.) Sometimes he just needs to be standing there. Excerpt:

'PITTSBURGH -- Pittsburgh police Chief Nate Harper said three plainclothes officers have been reassigned during an internal investigation into the beating of an 18-year-old student violinist from the city's Creative and Performing Arts High School.

Police charged Jordan Miles, 18, with assault and resisting arrest Jan. 11 because, they said, he fought with the officers who thought a "heavy object" in his coat was a gun. It turned out to be a bottle of Mountain Dew.

Miles said he resisted because he thought the men were trying to abduct him and didn't identify themselves as police.

Miles' family and attorney said he was hit with a stun gun and hospitalized after the violent Homewood struggle during which a chunk of his hair was yanked out and a tree branch went through his gums.

No parole for 'Angry Betty' Broderick

Story here. Ex-wife from Hell, Betty Broderick, has been denied parole for killing her ex-husband and his new wife in their bed in 1989.

Just goes to show that even the California Parole Board can have at least a functioning brain stem when it comes to rabid killer women. Excerpt:

'(CNN) -- Elisabeth "Betty" Broderick, once a socially prominent lawyer's wife who fatally shot her ex-husband and his new wife in bed in 1989, has been denied parole.

When Broderick's husband of 16 years dumped her for his young legal assistant, she seethed with a white-hot fury. She was one angry Betty, as a California writer, a long-time Broderick watcher, recently observed.

She still is, the California parole board concluded Thursday after hearing Broderick's rambling statement in which she continued to blame her actions on her husband's extramarital affair and their bitter divorce.'

New York mother pleads not guilty to torturing family pets, abusing her children

Story here. Excerpt:

'RIVERHEAD, N.Y. - A woman pleaded not guilty Thursday to abusing her children and family pets, sometimes forcing the children to witness her torturing animals to death, prosecutors said.

"This is a case where a mother subjected her children to the most unimaginable and horrific living conditions that I have ever seen," Suffolk County District Attorney Thomas Spota said. "These kids were beaten, they were starved, they lived in absolutely horrendous conditions within their own household and this was done intentionally by the mother."

Sharon McDonough, 43, killed numerous kittens and dogs, stashing the dead cats in the trash, and burying 42 dead dogs in the backyard of her Selden, Long Island, home, Spota said. The dogs were buried, he said, because some had identifying microchips implanted in them and McDonough feared being discovered if the carcasses were found in the trash. '

VPD changes their story; victim does not accept excuses, apology, and fears reprisals

Story here. Excerpt:

'VANCOUVER - The family of the Vancouver man injured by police in a case of mistaken identity Thursday is not ready to accept the Vancouver police department’s apology.

Two plainclothes police officers arrived at Yao Wei Wu’s south Vancouver home at 2:20 a.m. Thursday after receiving a call from a woman at the residence who said she was being attacked by her husband and feared for the safety of their baby.

What police didn’t know was that there were two suites in the home and they had gone to the wrong door.

The altercation that ensued left 44-year-old Wu — who does not speak English — bloodied, with small cuts all over his face and an eye swollen shut.
...

The couple has not yet decided what action they will take, if any.

“As for right now, I haven’t really thought about what I’m going to do,” said Wu after returning home from a doctor’s visit. “I just want to rest. I’m really tired.”

Country's first legal gigolo starts work in Nevada

Undoubtedly feminists will attempt to say this is an example of how men are having it better and better because "they can get sex not just 'for free', but now some can get paid for it," and that there needs to be further effort to stop "this sort of thing" not for men's sake but for women's. Of course to have things in the world of pay-for-play being male-to-female is also bad for women because it's sexual exploitation thereof. No winning, if you are male.

Also there are complaints that he won't have sex with other men, while some think having men around a brothel as prostitutes will "hurt the industry". And the article makes it sound like he hasn't even had a client yet, either. And on and on and on. Try to keep up. Excerpt:

Scorned Mistress of Married Obama Adviser Posts Billboards Nationwide

Story here. I am sure I (or MANN) will get accused (even moreso) of anti-Obama bias. Well that is not what this post is about. It's about this: Would the company posting these billboards have done so if there was a female adviser to the president in the same position and her jilted on-the-side fellow tried to buy billboard time talking about it?

Billboard space vendors reject ads all the time for all manner of reason. The fact that she wanted space on a billboard to complain about her high-profile jilter and that they rented it to her speaks volumes about what they think the public won't complain to them about.

In any case, we here on MANN know that the rate of infidelity among the sexes is roughly equal. However the substance of this story continue to reinforce the idea (and gleefully so) that males are the "primary cheaters" in our species. Excerpt:
