Last year, two Kuwaiti women got 7 years in jail for kidnapping, beating and raping a man.

Feminists like Jackson Katz claim women commit only 1% of rape. But that is NOT true especially when we count statutory and prison rape. A student survey found 43% of teacher sex abuse came from female teachers (though 92% of prosecutions are of male teachers), according to this article, which also quotes a John Hopkins expert saying boys face the same long-term effects as girls who are victims of sexual abuse.

Then there is the under-reporting. According to Wikipedia, "since the incidence of female-on-male rape is on record at much higher rates (around 30% compared to 10%) in Canada, it is likely being substantially under-reported in the United States."

The media (including the men, for psychological reasons involving guilt or other factors best left to Dr. Phil), see men as inviting, politically correct targets. When experts start trumpeting statistics that add up to "men are bad," reporters listen.

For years, I heard bad things about deadbeat dads. They were living it up, while their ex-wives and children had to scrape by. It's a recurring story, and the media regurgitates it regularly. It's also group slander."

Story here.

Frank Campione, the father whose wife (Frances Elaine Campione) is on trial for murdering their two children, is pushing for the Ontario Ombudsman's office to have more oversight of Children's Aid Societies.

The CAS repeatedly gave custody back to the mother, in spite of warning signs that she was a danger to the children. In the end, the mother killed both children by drowning them. Her trial is scheduled to begin in Barrie in a few weeks.

Before I begin, Happy Equal Pay Day!

"Parental Alienation campaigns such as what Kim has done to Alec Baldwin are very common. This campaign that she has done for the past six years has been so bad that even Basinger's mother has come out and condemned her daughter, and said that Alec is a good father, that he loves his daughter, that she loves him, and that Kim has done everything she could to drive him out of her life."

The false allegations of rape that damaged the lives of 46 members of the Duke Lacrosse Team, nearly sent three to prison for thirty years each, and cost families many millions of dollars in legal fees was not a one-of-a-kind aberration of justice. Other infamous cases involving well-known individuals such as Kobe Bryant, John Fund*, and CNN’s Tucker Carlson provide additional public evidence that false rape allegations are a major public problem - one where the perpetrator is rarely punished.

*4-26-07 Update: MANN admins received a note from Mr. Fund letting us now that he was never accused of rape, only assault, and that these charges were dropped after investigation. He maintains a site discussing this issue here.

While researchers and prosecutors do not agree on the percentage of false allegations, the consensus is that approximately 40% to 50% of charges are clearly false. This number does not include unresolved allegations held “in limbo” where evidence s too weak to try the case even under shield laws, relaxed rules, and comparatively weak evidentiary standards applied to rape cases:

Granted it's only for four months, but that's more than many people get. Story here. Excerpt:

"A TEENAGE girl who lied about being raped by a taxi driver was sentenced to a four-month detention and training order today.

The 17-year-old, from Shipley, West Yorkshire, who cannot be named for legal reasons, pleaded guilty to perverting the course of justice at a hearing last month.

District Judge David Thomas, sentencing at Bradford Magistrates' Court today, told the girl she would serve two months of her sentence in custody.
...
The court heard that Mr Ahmed, who has 11-year-old twin daughters, no longer works at night for fear of further allegations.

His financial position is now such that he has had to put his house on the market.

His wife is now taking tablets for depression, the court heard."

I came across this article on CNN and discovered a hidden gem. The article spouts the usual numbers of 80%, 69%, etc, but then hides in an otherwise unexplained line that only a quarter of the paygap is specifically related to gender, and the rest is behavior based. Now despite women outperforming men in education, I can still take 20 and divide by 4, meaning here in a CNN article they admit the actual number is closer to 95 cents on the dollar than the 76 they like to claim. And if they were that wrong for so long, it won't be hard to suggest that even the last few % could be from behaviors the study didn't consider.

This sexist economic agenda, if acted upon, would severely disadvantage men in the workforce because employers would hire more women than men simply for the fact that women would be cheaper to hire. Such an act, therefore, would lead to mass discrimination against men by employers and would greatly reduce men's presence at jobs.

Young men would be less inclined to seek higher education (a problem already affecting boys) as a result of knowing that their chances of getting jobs would be far lower than women's chances; consequently, the educational crisis affecting boys and men could dramatically get worse sending society into utter economic chaos. This article should be sent to every men's group on the planet! This must be stopped at once!

Story here. Excerpt:

"A jury convicted a nurse Monday of killing her husband and placing his body parts in three suitcases she tossed into Chesapeake Bay. Melanie McGuire, who sobbed as she heard the verdict, was convicted of murder, desecration of a corpse, perjury and a weapons offense."

Story here. Excerpt:

'CHICAGO (AP) - A man who spent 25 years in prison for rape was exonerated Monday as a judge threw out his convictions because DNA evidence showed he couldn't have committed the attack.

Jerry Miller smiled and the courtroom erupted into cheers after Cook County Circuit Court Judge Diane G. Cannon read the ruling that cleared him of all charges.

Miller, 48, had been found guilty of rape, robbery, aggravated kidnapping and aggravated battery even though he testified he was at home watching television at the time of the 1981 attack. He was paroled in March 2006 and now works two jobs and lives with a family member in a Chicago suburb.

The exoneration is the nation's 200th based on DNA evidence, according to the Innocence Project, a New York group that works to free wrongly convicted inmates.'

"[The bill]...would also address the issue of violence against women at its roots. (Those of you vigorously objecting here are being disingenuous. No, men do not need similar protection because, Lorena Bobbitt notwithstanding, there is really no widespread gender-specific phenomenon of violence against them."

A thoroughly sickening article. Pass it along to everyone you know in the Men's Movement. Maybe someone can come up with a learned response to this sicko. I have been banging my head against the wall trying to come up with one. Sadly my skills are lacking in that area.

An article regarding the shocking status of boys in India
here. Excerpt:

"Recently in Mumbai, a teacher paraded three six-year-old boys in their underwear to punish them for not doing well in school, but no action was taken, says Swarup Sarkar of the Save India Family Foundation, a self-financed forum for men. In April last year, a student of a prestigious school in Lucknow complained of sexual abuse by his class teacher. The matter is with the police, the child has sought refuge in his grandparents’ house, and the issue is hanging."

This is out right discrimination. What about the male patron that has a low income? Is he still required to pay more money for a meal? What about the female that makes $100,000 a year? Feminists look at genders as a collective unit, ultimately ignoring individuality. The wage gap myth needs intensive research, or this disturbing issue could become a disturbing trend. Excerpt:

"At least five restaurants here say they will drop prices for women patrons by 23 percent Tuesday to reflect a conclusion that American women, on average, earn that much less than men.

The event sponsor, the American Association of American Women, says 23 percent of the year will have passed, and that that's how many extra days women would have to work this year to make what similarly trained and educated men would make. The association has a Baker County chapter."

"If your son was falsely accused of rape, and when he was proven innocent, still was not able to legally hold his accuser accountable, had suffered loss of reputation, not to mention the emotional toll on him and the changes in his personality…and yet had no recourse, how would you feel as the parent of this young man?

If you are a man and you are falsely accused of domestic violence or sexual assault under the laws we currently have, you will find yourself exactly where these young men from Duke University are.

Even though they have no case against them, they will carry the stigma of the accusations with them forever. The same goes for those with false allegations of domestic violence and with false restraining orders placed against them.
