'I can hear all the female whining already about the Lingerie Football League*. Please, ladies, spare me the hypocrisy.

You'll whine about female exploitation. How women are being "objectified." How men only care about their bodies and not their other wonderful assets. How men will only go to these games to ogle. How this new football league is only an excuse for men to go out and be lechers, that this football league is nothing more than a glorified strip club, minus the pole dancing.

Pretty profound stuff, huh? Please.

Fact is, women do exactly the same thing with men. But men don't whine about it.'

'WASHINGTON, April 30 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Men's Health Network applauds Representatives Barron Hill (D-IN) and Tim Murphy (R-PA) today for introducing H.R. 2115, the "Men and Families Health Care Act of 2009."

This bipartisan legislation would establish an Office of Men's Health within the Department of Health and Human Services for the purpose of improving the health of men and their families. This Office will mirror the existing Office of Women's Health, established in the early 1990s, which has improved the quality of life for women nationwide.

'In response to Tuesday's article, "Study: Female professors earn less than males," I suggest our phallic powerhouse needs a slice of castration.

'How guilty would you feel if you cheated on your partner? The answer has a lot to do with the type of infidelity — and your gender.

Men feel guiltier following sexual infidelity, while women feel guiltier after emotional transgression, a new study finds.

The researchers had hypothesized the opposite. Men, they thought, would feel guiltier if they fell in love with someone else, as women place a high value on emotional loyalty and the resources it provides; similarly, because men's sex drive is considered to be more biologically hard-wired, it was assumed women would have more guilt knowing the pain that sexual infidelity would cause their partner.'

'WASHINGTON: Pneumonia is more likely to kill older men than women because of differing gender-based biological responses to the infection.

"Our study found that men with CAP (community-acquired pneumonia) were less likely to survive after an infection compared to women," said Sachin Yende, assistant professor in critical care medicine, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine (UPSM) and study co-author.

Data were gathered from the multi-centre Genetic and Inflammatory Markers of Sepsis (GenIMS) study.'

'Men want to complete the task and get on to the next task. Women want to experience the task. Guys, I know that sounds stupid, like forming a relationship with pain, but this is why women are good at taking care of you. Generally, they seem to be more thorough, which is why she’s never ready when you’re jingling your keys at the door and why you might survive getting stuck in a blizzard once you finally get out the door. (That’s a poor example. She’ll likely know there’s a blizzard coming and will protest leaving at all. Men believe they will defeat the blizzard. Women, I know this sounds stupid, but this is why men are good at killing mammoths, and why they’re good at protecting you. In the end, it’s all about taking down the beast.)'

'Washington, April 29 (IANS) Boys will be boys and girls will be girls, because gender specific personality traits develop along typical lines, according to a new study.
...
Not surprisingly, girls and boys differed in their sex-specific personality traits and their sex-typed activity interests in early adolescence, with girls showing higher levels of expressive traits (kindness and sensitivity) and interest in 'feminine' activities (arts and reading).

Boys showed higher levels of instrumental traits (independence and adventurousness) and interest in 'masculine' activities (sports and math).

Girls' typically feminine, expressive traits didn't change over time. Conversely, boys' sensitivity and warmth declined substantially across middle childhood but increased in later adolescence.'

'(CBS/ AP) The mother of the California octuplets has been questioned by police and child welfare officials after her 4-year-old autistic son showed up at school with a black eye and bite marks.

Nadya Suleman's attorney, Jeff Czech, says it's not clear if any action will be taken against the mother of 14 young children.
...
Police have said they've made several visits to Suleman's home in the past year to respond to complaints about lost, trapped or poorly cared for children, but, Kauffman points out, haven't removed any from the home.'

Article here. Erin Pizzey is one of the few, if possibly only, feminists who has stood up for the truth when it comes to DV. Nonetheless, I am weary of the constant stream of woe-is-me from feminists, if even they are saying "woe" over the abundance of successes they have claimed. Woe when they fail, woe when they succeed. When does the woe-is-me ever stop? Excerpt:

"Women have won the war for equality but it has left many of them imprisoned and exhausted, a pioneering feminist has claimed.

Campaigner Erin Pizzey, who founded the world's first refuge for battered women in 1971, claims the idea of women happily combining a career and a family has proved to be a myth.

The 70-year-old said women's 'freedom of choice' to have both has left them with less spare time than they had before.

But she added that many now did not understand what they had lost.

Story here. I guess she wouldn't have thought of just, er, reporting him to the police and let them investigate her claims? Excerpt:

'Police say a man in northeastern Brazil had his penis severed by his girlfriend who accused him of raping her daughter.

Police officer Fabio Gaudencio says 42-year-old Isaias Saturnino was sleeping at home last Friday when Maria da Silva used a kitchen knife to cut off his penis.

Gaudencio says Silva fled and remains at large.

Saturnino underwent reconstructive surgery and was in good condition on Monday, but is expected to stay at least two months in the hospital for observation.

Gaudencio says Silva's daughter accused Saturnino of raping her starting at age seven. She is teenager now. He hasn't been charged so far.

Gaudencio said Monday that Silva is expected to voluntarily turn herself in.'

'Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has announced a new $41.5 million strategy to tackle domestic violence.

Research commissioned by the National Council to Reduce Violence Against Women and their Children shows that violence against women costs Australia more than $13 billion a year.

Australian Bureau of Statistics figures say one in three Australian women will suffer domestic violence and one in five will fall victim to a sexual assault.

Mr Rudd said the Government was working with the states and territories to make sure that a domestic violence order taken out in one state or territory is automatically registered across the country.
...
"We must work harder and smarter to tackle this challenge," Mr Rudd said.

"Our challenge is to change the attitudes of many Australian men, especially young men."

Mr Rudd will also take the report to tomorrow's COAG meeting in Hobart to work with the states on a national plan to reduce violence against women for release next year.'

'BRITAIN appears to be evolving into the first modern soft totalitarian state. As a sometime teacher of political science and international law, I do not use the term totalitarian loosely.

There are no concentration camps or gulags but there are thought police with unprecedented powers to dictate ways of thinking and sniff out heresy, and there can be harsh punishments for dissent.

Nikolai Bukharin claimed one of the Bolshevik Revolution's principal tasks was "to alter people's actual psychology". Britain is not Bolshevik, but a campaign to alter people's psychology and create a new Homo britannicus is under way without even a fig leaf of disguise.

Action alert here. Excerpt:

'This past week in Canada a young man, Adam Cunningham, lost his life as a result of domestic violence apparently perpetrated by his wife. At the time of the initial incident she was charged with assault. Now that Adam is dead the Crown prosecutor declines to charge her further with manslaughter or homicide, and has told the family the assualt charges may be dropped as well, since the victim - who was also the only witness - has died.

See the news video here. (caution, the wounds are graphic)

Note in the obituary the comment that the wife will miss him. We can only imagine what that might mean.'

Story here. Men apparently don't need magazines or toiletries like women do. Anyway, would we ever see an article entitled "Packing party benefits male soldiers"? Not anytime soon. Excerpt:

'One hundred care packages are on their way to be received by 100 black female soldiers stationed at sea and in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kuwait.

The care packages were filled from 1:30 to 5:30 p.m. Saturday in the C.C. Baird Center at Galilee Baptist Church then transported to be processed for shipping as part of the 16th Sister Soldier Packing Party. Hosted by Sistahs BookClubbing, the event was in support of the Sister Soldiers Project, which has donated more than 1,200 care packages since 2006 to black women deployed in such places as Iraq and Afghanistan.
