New Song - "Judges in Family Court"

Here's a new song you might be interested in. It's entitled "Judges in Family Court." Needless to say, you won't be hearing your local disc jockey playing this from your local "Top 40" chart anytime soon.

Not too bad for a first effort from this group. No, I'm not in this production, but was invited. I sing very poorly.

'True Woman' movement seeks counter-revolution to feminism

Story here. Excerpt:

'LOUISVILLE, Ky. (ABP) -- A group of conservative Christian women is seeking 100,000 signatures on a "True Woman Manifesto" aimed at sparking a counter-revolution to the feminist movement of the 1960s.

Introduced at a gathering of more than 6,000 women in early October, the document calls not for equal rights, but instead proclaims that men and women are created to reflect God's image in "complementary and distinct ways."
...
Kassian said even Christian women have been influenced more by feminism more than they realize, including the idea that patriarchy -- the idea of submitting to male authority -- is the source of all their heartache and problems.'

'Looking for Alternatives in Title IX Enforcement'

Article here. Excerpt:

'Western Illinois University is the first school to work publically with the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights to comply with Title IX via interest surveys. Schools were likely resistant to using surveys until this point because of the large backlash from interest groups who threatened to sue any school that attempted to rely on interest surveys to demonstrate Title IX compliance. But proponents of true gender equity should applaud WIU’s initiative. After all, the real goal should be equality of opportunity, not equality of outcomes. It should be of no greater concern that there are fewer women playing sports than it is that there are fewer men taking part in campus theater or arts programs—so long as everyone is given equal opportunity to participate.'

Eagleforum: Where the Education Gender Gap is Leading America

Article here. Excerpt:

'Women have a growing influence on the fields of law and government. They represent half of law school students and one-third of lawyers. By 2050, they're projected to represent 60% of law school students. Women constitute half of medical school students and one-fourth of physicians. They're projected to constitute 70% of medical school students and the majority of physicians by 2050. According to a U.S. Census Bureau report, women are starting businesses at twice the rate of men. They're also rapidly rising into managerial and administrative positions.

In short, women are becoming richer and more powerful - and this is a good thing for America. Fueling this trend is the growing number of women earning college degrees. More education pays off in a big way. Those with a bachelor's degree earn, on average, nearly twice what those with just a high school diploma earn in a year, and roughly $1 million more over a lifetime.

NY Post: 'Outlawing Boyhood'

Article here. Excerpt:

'Or maybe females have removed their shackles and put them on males. In her book, "The Trouble with Boys," journalist Peg Tyre investigates an education system in which women principals oversee women teachers who treat girl behavior as standard. All the way down this gynocracy, normal male behavior (squirming in preschool, being more interested in war stories than relationships, pretending to shoot each other) is redefined as antisocial, threatening, or (most sinister of all) indicative of "special needs" that gets boys disappeared to the Gitmo of Special Ed. (Boys are diagnosed with attention disorders at four times the rate of girls).

"Girls have been oppressed by men since the dawn of time," one sarcastic letter writer declared to Tyre. "Now we're on top for a nanosecond and it's a crisis." Note the "We." Too many women (liberal women, it seems to me) think of females as much like a sports team, in mortal competition with the other team. Only one "side" can win.'

UK: Girls exceed boys in sex partners by age 21

Article here. Excerpt:

'YOUNG women are no longer just lying back and thinking of England, they are actively seeking out sexual partners - even more so than men.
...
The study of 2000 women in the UK, commissioned by More magazine, found that by the age of 21, women have had an average of nine sexual partners - two more than their male partner.
...
But if a woman met someone she really liked, 56 per cent would make him wait "a month or more" before she would have sex with him.

Of the women surveyed, 50 per cent admitted they had cheated on a partner and half of those had been unfaithful at least twice.

Only 25 per cent said they had a partner who cheated on them.

If a man did cheat, 99 per cent of young women would dump him.'

National Post letter: "Another view on domestic violence"

Letter here. Excerpt:

'This letter from the Ontario Minister for Women Issues is typical of the misleading information that plagues Canadian policy on domestic violence. Partner homicide is extremely rare, and the Ontario Death Review Committee cherry-picked cases that would support the Ministry's view of domestic violence. The Ontario cases are ones that the committee decided were domestic violence, and do not include all cases of homicide, as the system selects out female precipitated homicides as "manslaughter" or lesser charges.'

Mother 'sold her twins for £9,000 to pay for liposuction operation'

Story here. Excerpt:

'A mother accused of selling her newborn twin boys for £9,000 to pay for a liposuction operation was involved in an online rent-a-womb trade with women desperate to have children, it was claimed today.
...
Tamara Stegeman said that Ringoir had run sperm 'parties' at her large family home in Lovendegem, a village near Ghent, where she charged £300 a time to be impregnated with her husband's sperm.
...
After her marriage break-up, Ringoir now has a new boyfriend, Mitch. In an interview with a Belgian newspaper last week he claimed that her husband had put her under pressure 'to have her body rebuilt'.

'Sonia never had debts before she met Marc,' he added.

Ringoir can't be charged with trading in her babies as this is not a crime under Belgian law. She now faces between one month and five years in jail if convicted. The case had shocked Belgium and there are now calls by politicians to change the law.'

Australia: Discrimination against white males will soon be encouraged

Article here. Excerpt:

'DISCRIMINATION against dominant white males will soon be encouraged in a bid to boost the status of women, the disabled and cultural and religious minorities.

Such positive discrimination -- treating people differently in order to obtain equality for marginalised groups - is set to be legalised under planned changes to the Equal Opportunity Act foreshadowed last week by state Attorney-General Rob Hulls.
...
Companies and public bodies accused of discrimination can only be held to account after a complaint has been made.

But the proposed changes go much further, allowing the commission to inquire into discrimination, seize documents and search and enter premises after attempts to bring about change have failed.

Businesses and individuals would be required to change their ways even if a complaint had not been received.

Action could be taken where an unlawful act was "likely to occur", not just in cases where discrimination has taken place.'
