BBC: Women Still Victims of Computer Game Oppression

"The debate about how to get women more involved in gaming is a perennial one and one on which there is pretty wide agreement that not enough is being done."

Another bizarre story from the BBC femi-socialist propaganda machine. Apparently the 'male-dominated' computer games industry is not doing enough to make women feel included. Apparently "There needs to be changes across the board."(sic)

However, even the author admits that this story is a complete non-issue.

"There is evidence to suggest that, despite the obstacles, young girls carry on playing games. Research done by gaming firm Electronic Arts' found that 40% of teenage girls played video games but, crucially, they seem to lose interest within a year."

Well there you have it then. Girls who want to play computer games play them, and those who don't, don't. End of story.

Status of Women Canada Funding Slashed

OTTAWA — The federal Conservative government says it will no longer fund women's groups that do advocacy, lobbying or general research, leaving some to wonder what's left.

The drastic change to the mandate and operation of Status of Women Canada also drops the word "equality" when listing the agency's goals.

Violence is a man's problem?

The typical female chauvinist crap is repeated here about how violence is only a man's problem.

Yet, other headlines today revealed that violence is not so much a "man's problem". Here where a woman killed her husband's 13 month old baby son while awaiting extradition to return to the U.S. to face a murder charge for killing her husband. Nice.

Also look here, where a woman killed her husband's 1-year-old and 3-year-old daughters because she was involved in a custody dispute with him. Notice how the article paints the woman as "desperate" "reaching out" and "let down" by the system.

I wonder if the police chief from London, Ontario is aware that violence is not a "man's problem", but a societal problem? Not likely. He, acting as the female mayor's lapdog, seems to be just repeating the female chauvinist lies that the female mayor wants to hear.

Boycott ESPN's Monday Night Football

The female-supremacists have been steadily moving to replace "he or she" with the sexist "s/he", which is simply "she" with a slash, and is even prounounced "she". Along with this attack on males comes the reversal of "men and women" to "women and men." The intent is clear, to remove males altogether in the first case, and to relagate us to a secondary status in the second case.

In the spirit of this sexist attack on males through our language, at the very anti-male, ABC-owned ESPN, a network almost entirely dependent on male viewers for its survival, retired professional football players who now announce the Monday Night Football games are being forced by the feminist management to sign off every Monday night football game by saying "thank you from all of the WOMEN AND MEN at ESPN's Monday Night Football" even though it alienates and insults the male viewers and reduces viewership of the games.

RADAR ALERT: Tell Newsweek to Tell the Truth about Parental Alienation and Domestic Violence

Newsweek's September 25th article "Fighting Over the Kids: Battered spouses take aim at a controversial custody strategy" attempted to sell the American public an impossible theory: abusive fathers are successfully winning custody of children by claiming that the mother alienated the children from them.

The article highlights the case of Genia Shockome, who lost custody to the father in her divorce. A study of case facts reveals that the judge made the correct decision. (http://glennsacks.com/enewsletters/enews_9_20_06.htm)

More Media 2x-Standards in Combat-Deaths Reporting

A CNN video report covers women in combat in Iraq (MediaPlayer or similar required). They talk about it like it is something that is bad and should be stopped, without so much as mentioning the much larger number of men killed and wounded thus far in the Middle East. So much for equality in both status and commensuarate risks.

Getting killed or wounded/maimed in combat is a terribly tragic thing. That's what you sign up for though when you volunteer to serve in the armed forces, and it is no more or less tragic however when it happens to men as opposed to women. So why do MSM outfits like CNN act like it is? Answer: gross sexism and arcane chivalry.

Husband Charged in Wife's Minivan Suicide

Story here.

"A 34-year-old architect was charged Friday with helping his wife commit suicide by stepping aside as she drove the family minivan down a 300-foot cliff with their two daughters inside."

Thats right, this man faces severe criminal charges because his wife decided to drive off a cliff. "He "afforded her an opportunity for her to carry out her intentions," police said in a statement."

Apparently he tried to grab the bumper, but was unable to stop the minivan. I guess they expected this man to use his strength and prevent a 3500-lb. SUV from falling down a cliff. He is also charged with endangering the welfare of a child. The woman had his two daughters (3 and 5) in the minivan during her suicide attempt.

Fox News Ignores Male DV Victims and Pumps Up the Misandry... Again

Read it here.

"You might be surprised to learn that the most dangerous place for a woman in the United States is her own home. Domestic violence is the single biggest threat of injury to U.S. women — more than heart attacks, cancer, strokes, car accidents, muggings and rapes combined!"

---
Ed. note: This article is a couple months old, apparently; it is cited here in a comment dated 6/13/06. Still, it's a fine example of Fox's inability to see male DV victims.

I have seen this Fox analyst's name before attached to similar such rantings, too. Looks like she's a regular, and a law professor to boot. I can only imagine what being a man in one of her classes (or someone who dares speak the truth about DV in it) must be like.

More from the NY Times on Colleges and Women

An otherwise unremarkable review of an otherwise unremarkable book opens with a scathing taunt of the male sex in this review from the NY Times Book section. A wonderful little "nya nya nya" from another privileged recent college co-ed graduate whose father probably paid her way through whatever school she went to.

You know, I think the Times (as well as MSN for that matter) should just dispense with any pretense and set up their own "Nya nya nya we're made of sugar and spice and you nasty boys SUCK" subsite and put all their misandrist claptrap in one place rather than sneak it in via both sideways commentary and overt misstatements, lies, and distortions throughout their respective publications. That way the rest of us could just skip it entirely and go look for something decent to read.
