"Here is a section of proposed Joint Resolution 182 of the United States Congress, intended to compensate for what the resolution's proponents claim is "gender bias" in the judicial system....

'Whereas, as a result of this gender bias, many myths are that (sic) women make false allegations of domestic violence or child abuse, and most particularly of child sexual abuse, during divorce and custody proceedings;

Whereas false accusations by women are in fact rare, occurring no more often than do other false reports of crimes, such as bank robbery.'"

'Then there's Bruce, who was a truck driver in Boston and who came home one day to find his things on the street, the locks on his doors changed, and his wife's new boyfriend already moved in. Angry and bewildered, Bruce kicked in the door and began shouting. (He did not strike anyone.) His wife called the police, who arrived and took Bruce away in handcuffs. She got a restraining order preventing any contact with his three children. When his son was hospitalized with an illness, he was not allowed to visit. Eventually Bruce was allowed to see his children at a supervised visitation center with his wife and her boyfriend present in the next room.'

Article here. Excerpt:

'...New research shows that women are more likely to be stressed by workplace relationships while men are more affected by change and workload.
...
The findings, based upon a study of just over 900 respondents, seem to support psychologists' theories based on studying behaviour and hormone release in the genders, which suggest that stressed men are likely to become aggressive, while women resort to gossip and bitching*.
...
Work relationships appear as the primary stress factor demonstrating the largest difference between the genders, with 42% of females citing relationship difficulties at work, compared to 8% of males...'

Story here. Excerpt:

'THE organisers of the Electric Picnic festival, which kicks off this Friday, are to highlight the issue of Irish male suicide during the three-day event.
...
“We have arranged for five people, all of whom have been affected by Irish male suicide, to light the temple on Sunday,” said Mr Reynolds.

More than 35,000 people are expected to attend the festival this year, headlined by the Sex Pistols, My Bloody Valentine, Franz Ferdinand, Underworld and George Clinton the P Funk Allstars. The festival runs from Friday, August 29th to Sunday, August 31st.'

'The University of Rochester Medical Center is hosting "Men's Health Day — Take Time Out For Your Health" from 8 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 12 ... The free event will include discussions with top men's health specialists, hands-on demonstrations, and a healthy breakfast and lunch.'

Article decrying the relative shortage of eligible men in Australia here. Read this quotation:

'“There is simply less product for 30-something women, in particular, to choose from,” he said.

"In the old days, we believed Mr. or Mrs. Right would show up someday, but as we remain single for much longer, and are far more mobile, the chances are more remote," Salt told Reuters.'

"Product". What's funny (ie, sad) is the speaker is a man.

So they are wondering why Australian men seem to prefer life in the field vs. life in the city. Well if even a man from the city views other men as 'product', we can just imagine why.

Article here. Excerpt:

'Leaders of colleges for traditional-age students spend a lot of time worrying about the behavior of male undergraduates — and specifically the misbehavior of many through excessive drinking, hazing, and abusive behavior toward women. A leading sociologist and gender scholar, Michael Kimmel, has just published a new book that offers an inside look at this young male culture, Guyland: The Perilous World Where Boys Become Men (HarperCollins). The book covers male development from ages 16 through 26, and features extensive discussion of campus life. Kimmel responded via e-mail to questions about his work.'

Kimmel from Wikipedia:

Article here. Excerpt:

"The problem—the systematic discrimination, persecution, and now criminalization of fathers by virtue of their classification as “non-custodial parents” by the courts—has been in existence for the better part of 30 years.

The problem shows no sign of abating. Largely speaking, it is an invisible problem. The first question that needs to be asked and answered is: Why has there been no progress in all this time?

Finger-pointing is a staple of the Fathers Rights community. It has always existed because it is quite natural for a failed movement to explain away its failure by assigning blame."

"I WOULDN’T HAVE VENTURED into the sensitive debate on circumcision if it did not have direct consequences for my children, and the posterity of the Luo community and other non-circumcising communities around the world.

However, the debate has been fuelled by research carried out in Kenya and Uganda and published in January in BJU International.
...
But if you get circumcised, know that they are amputating your foreskin. The sensitivity you feel, not only in that skin, but the surrounding tissues, will be drastically diminished."

Story here. Excerpt:

'African health workers need more training and better tools to circumcise men and boys safely for HIV prevention, according to a World Health Organisation (WHO) study chronicling "shocking" rates of complications.

As many as 35 percent of males circumcised by traditional practitioners in Kenya's Bungoma district suffered complications such as bleeding, infection, excessive pain and erectile dysfunction from the procedure, the WHO researchers found.

"Other common adverse effects reported were pain upon urination, incomplete circumcision requiring recircumcision, and laceration," they wrote, estimating 6 percent of patients had life-long problems as a result.'

Article here. Excerpt:

'Theories about why so few men choose to become teachers, particularly at the elementary level, are well-discussed in education circles: the perception that teaching is a "female" profession continues; the pay, especially in the early years, is lower than other fields; the notion that men who choose to work with young children could be viewed as predators persists.

A question that sparks more debate is this: Does having male teachers matter?
...
"There's been this equation between how boys do in school and having male teachers, and somehow having a male teacher will make boys better learners," Wallace said. "What they need is really good teachers. And a really good male teacher? Great. A really good female teacher? Great. What we need are really good teachers who are able to engage students at all levels."'

Article here. British women make up 65% of college students yet the higher education system is too masculine? I suspect they'll be a major government based college initiative for women to gain 'equality'. Excerpt:

'The research, based on in-depth interviews with 10 male and 10 female students at a leading international school, demonstrates how the masculine environment still makes it harder for women to fit in. It also shows that both the male majority and the female minority of students appear to accept as an inevitability that business is done according to male rules.
...
More subtle strategies are needed to challenge students to understand how gender shapes organisational culture and practices, the study argues.

Introducing examples of less traditional business women and men into the curriculum would show that “working with gender diversity is part of what it means to do business”. So would inviting people from diverse backgrounds to teach case studies.

'A 16-year-old girl has been handed a 12 month referral order including counselling sessions after falsely accusing a man of raping her, Yourmaidstone reports.

Maidstone magistrates heard the teenager had claimed a 19-year-old youth had dragged her into his home and raped her.

But she concocted the story after having consensual sex with the man she accused, as she had a boyfriend.'
