“‘What does, ‘End Feminist Pork’ mean,’” was the first question I heard at the Tax Tea-Party I attended yesterday? The question came from the wife of a retired LAPD officer I knew. I explained what it meant, but little did I know I would be asked the same question more than 20 times throughout the afternoon and evening. At one point, I had just finished explaining, when another person came up to me and asked the same question.

If America doesn’t wise up soon to all the "feminist pork" that’s ripping taxpayers off, and destroying the social fabric of society, for many more males it may soon be the end of their world.

'Here's one to file under "TV shows we never saw coming": Reuters is reporting that HBO and "Daily Show"/"Colbert Report" executive producer Ben Karlin is developing a new comedy series called "Women's Studies." Julie White will likely star as "a onetime famous author who, after a tumultuous period as a feminist It Girl, is now a professor at a small liberal arts college in the Northeast." White is also on board as a producer.
...
And, let's face it: Academia (and, yes, that includes women's studies), with its departmental pettiness and Ivory Tower elitism, is ripe for some good-natured ribbing. Can you just see it now? Of course, we'll have to have the frat guy who signs up for a women's studies course to meet chicks. And let's not leave out the T.A. who speaks Judith Butler as a first language. Is an episode that pits the sex-positives against the sex-negatives too much to hope for?'

'A Montreal father says news that his daughter has been found safe in Vancouver more than two years after her disappearance is like "a gift from God." Frank Gonis said police told him Friday they had located his daughter, Ashley Gonis, 10, at a SkyTrain station in the neighbourhood of East Vancouver.
...
"The police called me on Friday early in the morning and it was like, I don’t know, a gift from God. It's amazing that she’s safe," he said.

Ashley disappeared in January 2007, along with Gonis's ex-wife, after a parental dispute that he says ended with him being awarded sole custody of the girl.

When she surfaced on Friday, police said Ashley told them she had run away from an "abusive situation at home" in B.C. and walked for hours before making a 911 call.'

'Ashleigh Pechaluk hated her female lover's long-time boyfriend, whom she saw as an obstacle to their relationship, and that's why they formed a plan to kill him with an axe, a prosecutor says.

The 24-year-old woman and her lover, Nicola Puddicombe, carried out the plan to murder Dennis Hoy, 36, while he lay sleeping in a Queensway apartment on Oct. 27, 2006, assistant Crown attorney Tom Lissaman told a jury today at the opening of Pechaluk's first-degree murder trial.

"He was bludgeoned to death as he lay naked and asleep in his girlfriend's bed," Lissaman said.

Puddicombe, 36, who will be tried after this trial ends, stood to gain $250,000 as the sole beneficiary of Hoy's life insurance and pension policies, Lissaman alleged.'

'Save Indian Family Foundation (SIFF) and Children’s Rights Initiative for Shared Parenting (CRISP), NGOs working towards the cause of Family Harmony, Gender Equality and Child Rights announces a “Candle Light March” in condolescence of the unfortunate demise of Mr. Syed Makhdoom, who committed suicide on 5th April 2009 after he was no longer able to bear the domestic violence being done on him by his wife and in-laws as they trapped him in false dowry harassment cases and separated him from his child. His suicide came to light on the 9th April 2009 after his landlord grew suspicious.

In a bone-chilling, 8 minute video that he recorded of himself on his mobile, minutes before he committed suicide, Syed Makhdoom expressed the pain that he underwent in an insensitive society and before an insensitive judiciary that trivialized his pain, never understood a father’s feelings and did not grant him visitation to his child which is the natural and biological right of both the child and the father.

'Ms C Springer, your Editor, from her chair in the newsroom asserts for my instruction that “domestic violence exists in all races, classes and in every sector of society.”

What she seems unwilling to conceive of, or incapable of conceding is that domestic violence exists in all “sexes/genders.” To make it clear, women are also guilty. This is the point of my letters. This is what, as idea, she finds offensive. Ms Springer needs a triumphant victim (woman) on one side and a diabolised victor (also essentially victim) on the other. That this position that I have expressed represents “an outmoded and bigoted” attitude contributing to perpetuating the problem is how Ms Springer responds to the threat to extending her all-embracing domestic violence victim categories to include men.'

'I have a friend who believes that Rihanna should have been charged in the incident in which she was hurt because she admitted hitting Chris Brown first and that Brown would’ve been acting in self-defense if Rihanna had been a man. I disagree about Rihanna needing to be charged because I find it doubtful that her blows hurt Brown, but this brings to light an entire can of worms about men as victims of domestic violence. I do not doubt that men in homosexual relationships are sometimes abused by their partners, and I am sure that there are some men who are harmed by their female partners. But is this really an issue that requires public service announcements and research and attention? I have heard of plans for some such PSAs in the near future. There are claims that men are victims almost as often as women and that women abuse the use of restraining orders.'

'Safety. Comfort. Luxurious bath products. The freedom to go padding down the hallway in jammies and slippers.

With selling points like these, hotel floors for women travellers - after being dismissed as old-fashioned, sexist and just plain insulting a quarter century ago - are making a comeback.

At the Crowne Plaza Bloomington in Minnesota, female travellers opting for the women-only floor enjoy fresh flowers, makeup mirrors and plush robes in their rooms as well as complimentary snacks and fashion magazines in a communal area. Following a strategy similar to the executive floor common to many luxury properties, access to this female enclave is by keycard only.
...
The Hamilton Crowne Plaza in Washington, D.C., takes catering to women a step further by offering the services of a bellman or security staff to walk nervous female guests to restaurants or other destinations in the vicinity of the hotel.'

'For seven years, the girls disappeared to take part in “Girls to Women, Women to Girls,” a one-day conference in Snowmass Village that encouraged girls to explore beyond their limits by meeting professional women who introduce them to a variety of career choices. The program was launched by the Women’s Foundation of Colorado.

In 2006, the 8th grade boys no longer had to feel left out. Villager Sue Smedsted, who had been in charge of the Girls to Women program, was encouraged by the Aspen School District to provide a similar program for boys in the upper valley. Her husband, Jeff Tippett, became the organizer for “Boys to Men, Men to Boys.”'

'A female Texas teacher and coach indicted on charges of having sex with a 15-year-old girl at her school has officially resigned, according to local media reports.

The charges, stemming from an alleged sexual relationship between 39-year-old Jennifer Lea Burton and one of her junior high school students, include three counts of sexual assault and three counts related to an improper relationship between student and educator, KFDM.com reported.

The purported sexual encounters between Burton, who was a teacher and coach at Orangefield Junior High, and the teen lasted from September to November of 2008, according to the indictment filed last week.'

'It has never been easy for adults to deal with young teenagers honestly and sensibly on this subject, and it isn’t easy now. We live with an endless parade of hypersexualized images — and a constant soundtrack of adults lamenting children’s exposure to that endless parade. There’s increasing knowledge of dating violence, including well-publicized celebrity incidents. And there’s always a new movie to see about how adolescent boys are clueless, sex-obsessed goofballs.

Stir it all together, and you may get an official worldview in which boys are viewed as potential criminals and girls as potential victims.

William Pollack, a psychologist at Harvard Medical School who wrote “Real Boys: Rescuing Our Sons From the Myths of Boyhood” (Owl Books, 1999), argues that the way we talk to boys and young men about sex often stereotypes them and hurts their feelings.

“One boy said, ‘They treat us like we’re perpetrators — we have sexual needs but we also have other needs,’ ” Dr. Pollack told me.'

The arrest of Melissa Huckaby, a 28-year-old mother and Sunday school teacher, on charges of kidnapping, rape and murder also sent up red flags for criminologists.

"It seems like a reasonable question, to ask what the hell is wrong with Jimmy Kimmel. But the problem is, while not excusing his actions for a single second, that he has a whole culture (and audience) backing him up.

"In the majority of sexual assault cases, where a woman is the victim of a man's violence, rape apology is rooted primarily not in the denial that male violence exists, but in the denial that male violence means something and needs to be stopped. Conversely, in cases where a man is the victim of a woman's violence, rape apologism is strongly rooted in the denial that women's actions can count as violence at all -- and especially that their actions can count as sexual violence against men, who are routinely construed as incapable of being victims."

'Prosecutors plan to seek the death penalty for Casey Anthony, a Florida woman accused of murdering her daughter, a spokeswoman for the state attorney's office said today.

In December, the state's attorney's office filed court papers indicating that prosecutors would not seek the death penalty in connection with the first-degree murder case.

In a notice of intent filed today, prosecutors said additional information has become available. The filing says that "sufficient aggravating circumstances exist to justify the imposition of the death penalty," according to the Orlando Sentinel.

A spokeswoman for Jose Baez, Anthony's attorney, said in a statement, "This is not a death penalty case. We will do whatever is necessary to defend Casey Anthony from the state trying to take her life. We already have death-qualified defense lawyers on our team and are prepared for a vigorous defense."

Anthony, 22, has pleaded not guilty in the death of her daughter, Caylee. She is scheduled to go on trial in October.'
