Without providing any research evidence, Meier goes on to make the improbable claims that most custody disputes "arise in the context of mothers seeking to end abuse or protect their children" and "mothers have few means of protecting their children from dangerous fathers". Meier's statements represent a serious misrepresentation of a well-known government statistics, and are highly defamatory of fathers.'

'An abused wife who killed her husband, cut up his body and dumped the parts on a street and in a park was jailed for 15 years by a Tokyo court on Monday, a court official and Japanese media said.

Doctors had said Mihashi was insane at the time of the murder but the court ruled that while she had been seeing hallucinations she was mentally capable of making decisions, Japanese media said.
...
A Tokyo District Court official confirmed the sentence but declined to give details of the crime.'

"Boys would get better English results at primary school if they were taught in single-sex classes, a study has found.

Researchers said boys perform "significantly" better in English tests if they are taught in classes with fewer girls. The study by Bristol University used results from every state primary school and found that as the proportion of girls increased, boys' performance in tests fell..."

Yes indeed, folks, we have a classic example here of a man using his Magic Patriarchal Phallus-Power to rape a woman over a telephone. He used some kind of evil dark mystical power, possibly in collusion with Satan himself, to commit this dastardly deed. Story here. Excerpt:

'TUNIS, Tunisia, April 27 (UPI) -- A Tunisian family alleges their daughter was raped during a telephone conversation with a man, a lawyer for the family said.
...
"The intercourse did take place with all its details but verbally only," he said. "The sexual act did not really happen because the physical proximity factor is not there, yet it happened because there is a direct physical impact – the loss of virginity."'

Senator Barack Obama may well become the next president of the United States. But in a recent letter to one of his constituents, he affirmed his support for the International Violence Against Women Act, and reiterated many of the half-truths and falsehoods of domestic violence – see complete letter below.

I-VAWA – Senate bill 2279 – is a dangerous bill that would break up families, harm women, and openly discriminate against male victims.

In India, domestic violence laws have become so harmful that they are commonly referred to as "legal terrorism"1. For more information on the Pandora’s Box of I-VAWA, see the RADAR analysis "I-VAWA: The Destruction of Families Worldwide"2.

THIS AN URGENT REQUEST TO TAKE PROMPT ACTION.

Please contact Sen. Obama’s office today.

This article from back in 2007, linked to from this at the HuffPost. Belies the myth that only men seek the services of prostitutes, or that the difference in motivation is so significant as to free women from any sort of "unacceptable" motivations. Excerpt:

'I’m sure I’m not the only person who hides such a guilty secret, and I’m equally sure that anyone in my position would guard it as ferociously as I do.

Letters here. Excerpts:

'I regret circumcising our son. When I asked if the procedure was painful, my obstetrician shook his head and said no, the baby just goes "waah" once, and it's over. That is not true, as I learned later when I saw the operation performed at a friend's Jewish bris ceremony.'

'Your article also failed to mention an article published last year in the peer-reviewed British Journal of Urology International titled "Fine-Touch Pressure Thresholds in the Adult Penis". The results indicated that intact penises were four times more sensitive than cut penises.

This is not a medical issue, nor a hygiene issue, nor a look- like-daddy issue. This is a civil rights issue. There is no room in a civilized society for the unnecessary amputation of infant genitalia.'

Article here. Excerpt:

"Heterosexual men can't catch a break from the media. When they're aggressors, they're condemned. When they're victims, they're ignored. Conversely, when women -- gay or straight - and gay men are victims, they're pitied. And when they're aggressors, they're also pitied.
...
The invisibility of heterosexual male victims I speak of shows up in the article's first comment on domestic violence: In asserting that "Canadians know full well that domestic violence is a major problem," Anderssen cites examples of a woman beaten by her boyfriend, and three children murdered by their father. To this journalist (and to be fair, to most others too), men hurting women and men killing children are what Canadians "know" about domestic violence.

What Canadians would know if the article was better researched is that men are almost equally likely to be assaulted by their female partners, and that children are statistically more likely to be abused or killed by their mothers than fathers."

Essay here. Excerpt:

"The social critic Camille Paglia once wrote: "There is no female Mozart because there is no female Jack the Ripper."

Men are simply more variable - there are more really stupid ones and more very smart ones than women; more extremely lazy ones and more who are willing to halfkill themselves with overwork."

Article here. Excerpt:

"Female behaviour favouring empathy, friendship, family and cooperation have been undervalued in workplaces in which women try unsuccessfully to behave like men, Pinker said. She suggested that it's time we take a look at both genders and realize that neither's needs have been understood.

Pinker also is an avowed feminist, but she said the drive for equality was misdirected, distorted by the belief that women should do all the things that men do. "I think it was necessary at the beginning, equating equality to sameness," she said. "Essentially all feminist writers say we want what they want, so we've got to be like them. The science tells us, no, we're not like them ... unless biology changes."

"But now there are two and we're facing Pennsylvania and whom are we kidding? This is an election about whether the people of Pennsylvania hate blacks more than they hate women. And when I say people, I don't mean people, I mean white men. How ironic is this? After all this time, after all these stupid articles about how powerless white men are and how they can't even get into college because of overachieving women and affirmative action and mean lady teachers who expected them to sit still in the third grade even though they were all suffering from terminal attention deficit disorder -- after all this, they turn out (surprise!) to have all the power. (As they always did, by the way; I hope you didn't believe any of those articles.)

Ran back in 2002 here. Excerpt:

'Single dads are sick and tired of being labeled "deadbeats" when it comes to paying child support. And data suggest they have good reason to be upset.

The percentage of "deadbeat" moms is actually higher than that of dads who won't pay, even though mothers are more consistently awarded custody of children by the courts.
...
"It’s not the exception anymore," Wood said, adding that before he became a single dad two years ago, "I would have almost bought into that stereotype" the dads are usually the deadbeats. But "that philosophy is just 30-40 years out of date."
...
And moms who don’t have custody of the kids often remarry and have more kids, and often choose to not work.'

I doubt they would run this today. Apparently feminists hadn't taken over the editorial room back then.

Some information in this article could be offensive to some. Excerpt:

"Gaining weight and still thinking you're attractive. "For better or worse” should include weight fluctuations, but don’t let yourself go completely.

You don’t know how many women have complained to me about the double standard in staying attractive: Women are expected to stay hot-to-trot, men aren’t.

So if you want continued star treatment for your rock star performances, know that Meat Loaf isn’t the singer to emulate."

Article here. Excerpt:

"Women have surpassed men in most areas of education, but men continue to be more numerous in fields like math, physics, and engineering. For more than a decade, feminist groups have been lobbying Congress to address the problem of gender “injustice” in the laboratory. Their efforts are finally bearing fruit. Federal agencies are now poised to begin aggressive gender-equity reviews of math, science, and engineering programs. Groups like the National Organization for Women must be celebrating — but American scientists should brace themselves for the destructive tsunami headed their way.

PUNE: "Do only girls have reputation and dignity? Don't boys have them too," asks Pushpa Muralidhar Bhise (48), mother of Sagar (19), who was falsely implicated by a minor for raping her.

Sagar was arrested on March 17 after the minor girl from Wadgaonsheri alleged that he and three of his friends raped her in a house in Dehu Road. The police had also detained another minor following communal pressure as the girl belonged to a minority community."

What is most outrageous is that only men are being arrested. The main culprit, the woman is still at large. Why is this sexist double standard?
