Anonymous User writes "A NY Times article from Sunday covered the 'revolution' of women entering male dominated fields/jobs.
On making men "understand the female perspective":
"'I sent one of my managers out to buy a pair of size 12 high-heeled pumps at Payless,' recalls Mary Sipes, the vehicle line director for full-size sport utility vehicles at General Motors. Then she had male engineers, dressed in skirts, heels and press-on fingernails, use the cars they designed."
Hat tip to Broadsheet for noticing the story."

AngryMan writes "This article in the London Independent tells us what a hard time women have regarding state pension entitlement. It is the usual distorted feminist whining, "Boo Hoo. It's not fair". It does mention in passing "To qualify for the full pension, women need to work for 39 years (men, 44 years)", but strangely, this doesn't seem to be a problem for the sisterhood. Combine it with the fact that men die before women, and you can see who is really being discriminated against! Men work longer, pay more taxes, and then claim less back in pension because they die sooner. Women work less, pay less tax, and then get more back in pension becuase they live longer, yet it is women who are being treated unfairly. Unbelievable."

Dave in CA writes "Floride causing an increase of bone cancer in boys?? Check out this report. Excerpt:
'(WASHINGTON, April 5) — Boys who drink water with levels of fluoride considered safe by federal guidelines are five times more likely to have a rare bone cancer than boys who drink unfluoridated water, according to a study by Harvard University scientists published in a peer-reviewed journal.
The study, led by Dr. Elise Bassin and published online today in Cancer Causes and Control, the official journal of the Harvard Center for Cancer Prevention, found a strong link between fluoridated drinking water and osteocarcoma, a rare and often fatal bone cancer, in boys. The study confirms studies by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the New Jersey health department that also found increased rates of bone cancer in boys who drank fluoridated tap water.'"

This is very much like the sort of thing written about whites-only colleges accepting black students back in the '50s and '60s. Here's an exercise: Replace all references to men/male/etc. with the corresponding reference to black ethnicity (black/African-American/etc.), and replace all women/female/etc. references with the corresponding reference to white ethnicity (white/Caucasian/etc.), and marvel at the result.

AngryMan writes "If you ever doubt that false accusations can do serious damage, then read this story. Race-riots took place last year in the UK's second largest city, Birmingham, following rumours that a local West Indian girl had been raped by a gang of Asian men. There is no eidence the rape ever happened, but the ensuing public disorder left one man dead, and at least 30 people taken to hospital."

Luek writes "America's mania for locking up a sizable chunk of its population has never been more popular according to this article. Now 1 out of every 136 US residents are behind bars and they are mostly men. We can also surmise that an equally large number are on probation or parole so the ratio of 1 in 136 is understating the crisis.
The article focuses on drugs and sentencing guidelines as the reasons for the increase. However, nothing is said about false rape accusations, trumped up domestic violence charges, barbaric child support enforcement policies or other feminist political agenda driven laws causing the increase in the male prison population."
Ed. note: Yes, and notice who they pick for a picture of an inmate for the article: a woman. On the heels of this piece of news, look for a push to get women released from prison into "alternative sentencing" programs all across the country while the men languish behind bars.

Roy writes "Members of the women's lacrosse team at Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., are seen in sexually suggestive poses with a male stripper in just a thong and socks on the website badjocks.com." In this naïve essay, the authoress promotes the chauvinistic notion that girls behaving badly should still be revered and respected, and quotes the Pope in support of her argument. Funny stuff!"
Ed. note: The essay author you will note quickly brings up the Duke case but rushes to draw distinctions based largely on the fact that the LAX players are on the other end of (thus-far unsubstantiated or corroborated) rape allegations.

bull writes "Oklahoma, Mississippi and the Mountain states have set the pace in increasing the imprisonment of women, while several Northeastern states are curtailing the practice, according to a new report detailing sharp regional differences in the handling of female offenders. Rest of the story
here. A telling excerpt:
'Ann Jacobs, executive director of the Women's Prison Association, said states with high rates of women behind bars should look closely at alternative sentencing, particularly mandatory treatment as an option for drug offenders.'"

Anonymous User writes "Clearly these poor girls are victims of the white male patriarchy. We need to help them. Notice one of the solutions is to make school more interesting for these poor girls. Yes, gear school to be even more feminized. Also, its ironic that the headline isn't 'Boys better Behaved than Girls'. Story here. Excerpt:
'In a disturbing confirmation of the spread of the 'ladette' culture, it found violence, aggression and self-destructive behaviour has spread alarmingly among girls over the past 20 years.'"

While on the Contra Coasta Times re the second most previous submission, I found this story as well. To think, these "old ladies" are probably grandmothers.
Helen Golay, 75, and Olga Rutterschmidt, 72, were arrested Thursday after they allegedly collected more than $2 million in benefits from policies issued on the lives of two homeless men killed in hit-and-run crashes in 1999 and 2005, authorities said.
Police believe the women may have committed the fatal accidents themselves, and were befriending other men to set up more insurance policies.
