'A soldier was handcuffed to a chair and then tortured by his jealous girlfriend, a court was told.
...
Sipping champagne, Nicola Clunies-Ross smiled at the man and told him, “I am going to destroy you”, as she allegedly sexually assaulted him in an hour-long ordeal that was photographed and videotaped.
...
The court was told that Mr Gurdulic took photographs and short videos of the attack and threatened to publish them on an army computer hard drive, accessible to all soldiers, if the soldier did not do as he was told.'

It started with a message on her website entitled “Oprah is a traitor” and rapidly expanded to include several discussions that attracted hundreds of comments.

In the original post, a reader called austaz68 said she “cannot believe that women all over this country are not up in arms over Oprah’s backing of Obama. For the first time in history we actually have a shot at putting a woman in the White House and Oprah backs the black MAN. She’s choosing her race over her gender.”

WOMEN APPEAR TO BE THE MOST RACIST AND SEXIST OF US ALL...

"They may dress in candy-pink saris but their reputation is far from sweet.

These woman are the Pink Vigilantes, members of a group sworn to root out corruption in the police force and deliver ruthless summary justice to anyone believed guilty of domestic violence or sexual abuse. The women, who operate in India's northern state of Uttar Pradesh, wear pink as a kind of makeshift uniform - and their ranks have swelled to several hundred strong.

They arm themselves with lathi - traditional sticks - which they have used to beat men who have abandoned or abused their wives and policemen who have refused to register claims of rape."

'As this essay begins, one should be at once grieved and saddened by the state of affairs for Men in the United States of America. For the reality of the situation is this - the American Male is under attack: psychologically, emotionally, and spiritually, by the very people whom he was created to protect - American Women.
...
Every single admirable quality of the American Male is now suspect - responsibility means inflexibility, strength of character equates to stubborness, standing one's ground equals abusiveness, courage and fearlessness is now insanity.

If a Man exhibits any of these qualities to his wife or girlfriend, she can easily destroy him by lying about abuse, rape, verbal haranguing, anything, and he can be arrested, prosecuted, and convicted of a crime.'

Fathers' Rights Activist March In San Diego MLK Day Parade

"CRISPE, the Children's Rights Initiative for Sharing Parents Equally, and its supporters, marched today in the City of San Diego's Martin Luther King Day parade."

"It was an exciting moment when our turn finally came to "step forward" and join in the parade. We eagerly moved out in unison. Kids, and Dads, and Moms, and friends walked side by side, proclaiming a message extolling 50/50 shared parenting."

The Save Indian Family Foundation held a protest demanding a men's welfare ministry for implementing its 21-point agenda.

Over 150 people attended the protest this was covered by The Statesman, Enadu, and The Times of India newspapers. In addition, TV 9, Kasturi, and ETV covered the event.

Photographs are posted here.

Also look at this photo in more detail to understand the battered men. The developed countries are brainwashed as men bad, women good. Just look at this photo.

Special thanks for two associates of RADAR who also attended this protest.

"A woman with a history of mental illness purposely walked her young niece and nephew into oncoming interstate traffic to commit a double-murder suicide, a prosecutor said Friday.

Marcelle Thibault, 39, was driving south on Interstate 495 in Lowell last week when she turned the car sharply, drove across the median and northbound lanes and began driving against traffic in the breakdown lane, authorities said.

She then stopped the car, removed her clothes and undressed the children, took both of them into her arms and walked onto the highway. She and the children were struck by two cars and killed."

Japanese rail company JR East banned an ad poster featuring a man's moderately hairy chest - an image it considered so shocking to Japanese women that it constituted an open-and-shut case of sexual harassment. The poster "wasn't just out of line because there was nakedness; the pictures showed things that were particularly unpleasant for women, such as chest hair, and it was decided that showing them things they didn't want to see was sexual harassment".

So, now a woman can be sexually harassed just by SEEING something unpleasant? Will they circumcise Mt. Fuji next?

I did watch the movie last night and it is a ridiculous excuse of modern cinema. The movie was so asinine it was hard for me to take it seriously. I find the review's Paglia angle somewhat intriguing. Excerpt:

'Boys are five times more likely to be told off in a primary school class than girls even though they are just as likely to misbehave, according to new research.

They are also less likely to be praised or picked to answer a question, despite raising their hands just as often as girls, it is claimed.

The "prejudiced" views of some teachers could be damaging boys' self-belief, it is feared, causing them to do badly at school...

...Dr Swinson said that this "prejudice" could explain why girls get better exam results than boys. "Perhaps some boys get disenchanted with lessons because they are being told off too much," he said.'

'The statistics on male victims of domestic violence in heterosexual relationships show the instances are very low, she said, while acknowledging that men are much less likely to admit they are victims.

There are some studies, however, that claim the opposite.

Psychologist Martin S. Fiebert at California State University compiled a list of 491 studies that show that women are far more likely to be violent in a relationship than men, but the numbers of men willing to identify themselves as victims is very low.'

'Erin Pizzey, the campaigner who pioneered treatment for abused women by setting up Britain's first refuge centre for victims of domestic violence in the 1970s, is now turning her attention to another group of often overlooked victims: men.

Launching an online campaign and research project aimed at bringing the issue out in the open, Ms Pizzey is hoping to raise awareness of abuse perpetrated by women against men – a subject she describes as "one of the last taboos". She has put a questionnaire on the website femininezone.com that allows women to answer questions anonymously about how they treat men.'

'An Indianapolis man is suing the Marion County superior court after he was wrongfully accused and convicted of rape.

For 13 years David Buntin sat behind bars as an innocent man. The prime of his life he says was taken from him. And now, he wants retribution. At 38, Harold David Buntin has been through an incredible ordeal and his torment isn't over yet.
...
While behind bars David earned two associates degrees and hired an attorney. Dna tests later showed that he wasn't the rapist. But from 2005 through April 2007, Buntin remained in jail. Turns out, court records that would have ensured his release were never filed. For two years, David sat behind bars as an innocent man.'

The short version is that men have to pay for a certain type of prostate exam (vs. women, who pay nothing for most types of breast cancer screens), but it's not sexist because of differences in the reliability of each screening method.

OK, so the problem isn't necessarily that the fee structure sucks, but the question is raised as to why screening methods for prostate cancer suck so badly compared to those for breast cancer? Its not really a question. Excerpt:
