The latest research brings the prospect of female-only conception a step closer. "We're very excited about this discovery, particularly as our earlier work in mice suggests that we could develop this work even further," Professor Nayernia said.

I can flood this site with female rape cases against male students. They are so easy to find. Excerpt:

"The 24-year-old female teacher appeared with her attorney, James Rumsey, in front of Douglas County District Judge Stephen Six.

The woman, who was in her first year of teaching at LHS, has been suspended from the school district, with pay. The teacher was arrested March 16 for allegedly having sex with the student between August and mid-March. She has pleaded not guilty to two counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and two counts of criminal sodomy."

This female teacher abuse will never stop until they are held accountable for sexual abuse. For some reason this is not perceived as a legitmate sexual crime. If this double standard continues, female teachers will still prey on boys and girls. Excerpt:

"Investigators said Jamie Lynn Armstrong, 23, was a teacher at Tara High School, where she met the 16-year-old female student.

Police said the alleged relationship was uncovered after the girl's father said he found his daughter's journal about a month a go.

The journal held details about the alleged relationship between the student and Armstrong."

"When Adrienne Gerhäuser was accused yesterday of belonging to a terrorist organisation, she resembled, in the words of her lawyer, “an ordinary 58-year-old female”, tired, shoulders hunched with tension, but somehow at ease with herself.
...
Committed to an urban guerrilla war against everyday sexism, Red Zora carried out more than 40 attacks, starting in 1977 with a bomb placed in the offices of the German Doctors’ Association to protest against the abortion laws. There followed attacks on sex shops and cinemas; on Siemens, Bayer and Schering; on the Philippines Embassy (blamed for the international trade in women); biotechnology institutes and the cars of pimps."

Story here. Excerpt:

"A woman accused of killing and dismembering her former lover's friend was convicted Thursday of premeditated murder and could become the state's first female defendant to face the death penalty.

"Prosecutors accuse Daphne Wright, 43, of abducting, killing and dismembering Darlene VanderGiesen, 42, in February 2006. Remains were found in a Minnesota ditch and a Sioux Falls landfill. All three women were deaf and knew each other through the deaf community."

Nifong knows he's in deep trouble now. After claiming for months he's, "done nothing wrong" now it appears he's racing to apologize after the NC attorney general cleared the three young men from the Duke Lacrosse team yesterday. This coward is shaking in his boots becuase he knows the lawsuit is coming from the innocent familys who lives he wrecked and he has no chance of winning it. Just rememeber Finnery, Evans and Seligmann: SORRY ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH! Excerpt:

'DURHAM, N.C. (AP) - The local prosecutor who charged three Duke lacrosse players with raping a stripper apologized to the athletes Thursday and said the North Carolina attorney general's decision to drop the case was right.
"To the extent that I made judgments that ultimately proved to be incorrect, I apologize to the three students that were wrongly accused," Durham County District Attorney Mike Nifong said.'

Story here. Did we not call it, O MANN Regulars? Excerpt:

'SELMER, Tennessee (CNN) -- The woman accused of killing her minister husband teared up as her attorney described how her husband abused and threatened her, and how she shot him and fled with their three young girls to Alabama.
...
Her attorney said in opening statements Thursday that she didn't know at first that ammunition from the shotgun she fired had hit him.
...
"We will show you proof that he would destroy objects that she loved, he would isolate her from her family and he would abuse her -- not just verbally, not just emotionally and not just physically -- in other ways too," Farese said.'

OK, show us the proof, counsellor... or is it really even necessary in a US court under these circumstances?

From Glenn Sacks:

My new co-authored column, Texas bill to create domestic violence offender registry will harm innocent men (Austin American-Statesman, 4/11/07), criticizes a new, draconian Texas bill which will ensnare and punish many innocent men. The column also criticizes the way law enforcement and the judicial system handle domestic violence cases. Excerpt:

'House Bill 3958, sponsored by Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-San Antonio), will set up a domestic violence offender registry similar to the Texas Sex Offender Registry. Castro is correct to identify domestic violence as an important issue; however, there are serious problems with the way law enforcement and the judicial system handle domestic violence. These problems will cause many innocent men to be ensnared by this bill.

Absolutely bizzare. Excerpt:

The slogan: "A woman never makes a mistake. A man can never reject a woman's request" will be carved into the town gates.

Finally, they have done the right thing. Story here. I hope those guys collect a fortune in lawsuit judgments. Excerpt:

'April 10, 2007 — The office of North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper will announce that he is dismissing all charges against three Duke Lacrosse players, ABC News has learned from sources close to the case.'

While men and women are supposed to be consider "equal" under the law, no one seemed to pay any mind to the outrage that occurred last week during the Greek cruise ship disaster: the assumed expendability of the male passengers. While most people probably take for granted that a lot has changed since the days of the Titanic, when it comes to Maritime law, everything is still 1912. When the Greek liner went aground and began to sink, the dreaded "women and children first" slogan was announced over the PA, and men were not allowed to disembark before all women had been saved.

Not only is this sentiment purely sexist in its own right, but it pre-supposes (a) that the lives of women are worth more then the lives of men, (b) that women must be protected by men and therefore it is the duty of men to give up everything - life, rights, etc., and (c) that all of the children on board will have a female parent/guardian available to take care of them on shore while they wait for male parent/guardian to be released.

Story here. Excerpt:

'According to government statistics, most sexual contact between corrections staff and inmates occurs between female employees and male prisoners.
...
Forty-seven percent of all cases of sexual abuse cases from 2000 to 2004 involved women employees and their male charges. Men were 4 percent less likely to abuse female inmates.'

The interesting case that's been going on for awhile about the UK woman wanting to use existing embryos against the father's consent seem to have been resolved, in favor of the would-be father. Excerpt:

'A woman left infertile after cancer therapy has lost her fight to use embryos fertilised by an ex-partner.
Natallie Evans, from Trowbridge, Wilts, and Howard Johnston began IVF treatment in 2001 but he withdrew consent for the embryos to be used after they split up.

She turned to the European courts after exhausting the UK legal process.

Ms Evans, 35, said she was "distraught" after the Grand Chamber of the European Court ruling, but Mr Johnston said "common sense had prevailed."'

Article here. Excerpt:

'Now, cases such as Salazar's are inspiring legislation in Missouri and across the country that would make it easier for men to use genetic tests to shed financial support.

Salazar doesn't have that option now. Under Missouri law, he was presumed to be a father simply because he was married to the mother when she gave birth.

The same law gives men, both married and unmarried, a limited time frame to challenge paternity. After those deadlines have passed, even DNA tests often aren't enough to shake paternity obligations.'
