'Fla. School Stands by Aide Hit by Father

BRADENTON, Fla. — A teenager who accused a teacher's aide of molesting her _ prompting the girl's father to march into school and punch the man in the face _ made up the story, officials said.

School surveillance cameras show the aide was not even in the room when the 15-year-old said she was touched inappropriately, said Lakewood Ranch High School Superintendent Roger Dearing.'

So I wonder how this will get spinned into *her* being a victim? What will it be, institutional dereliction perhaps or maybe, just maybe... it's all their father's (or fathers') fault!

The entire matter of the sexes of the two young victims in this case has been entirely ignored. Had the victims been boys of any ethnic background, I have no doubt the story would not have made headlines in the UK, and wouldn't have here in the US either... or Germany, Australia, New Zealand, France, Spain, Belgium, or... you get the idea.

Amazing the level of denial going on here, isn't it?

For those interested in tracking the theatrical efforts of Eve Ensler (author of The Vagina Monologues), note the showing of her latest production, The Good Body.

RandomMan writes "According to this recent decision here in Canada, highly trained and experienced commercial pilots and skilled aircraft mechanics should not be paid more than women who spend most of their time handing out peanuts, serving lousy food, scowling at passengers and forcing males from their pre-assigned seats next to unaccompanied children (story here). According to this same logic, an unskilled cleaner working at a computer company should be able to sue for discrimination because she makes less than an electrical engineer, programmer or even the CEO. How does working for the "same organization in the same business" make everyone's work equally valuable? Would male cabin crews expect to be paid as much as the pilots or mechanics? Should female orderlies be paid as much as male surgeons?"

It seems the most-wanted serial killer in Mexico is believed to be a female wrestler. Read it here. All the victims also appear to have been old women. Innocent until proven guilty, I say, so wait and see what happens. Of interest to those who wonder about "gender blinders," look at the denial in action:

'Mexico City prosecutors said fingerprint evidence linked Ms Barraza to at least 10 murders carried out in recent years. She was arrested at the scene of the killing of 82-year-old Ana Maria Reyes on Wednesday in the Venustiano Carranza area of the capital.

After reports that a woman had carried out the killings, police suspected a man in woman's clothes.'

Steven Brown writes "So what kind of sentence would a man have got if he'd assaulted his girlfriend like this? Excerpt:

'The argument started about their income. Thomas ripped off Mr Smith's glasses and started punching him to the face.

.

.

'She admitted inflicting actual bodily harm and was given a two-year community rehabilitation order.'

I'm sure it wouldn't have been this: 'a two-year community rehabilitation order'.

Sickening."

Anonymous User writes "We DON'T negotiate with terrorists UNLESS a woman is the hostage. This is ABSOLUTE PROOF of a complete disregard for men's lives (how many male hostages and soldiers who were brutally murdered could have been saved if we gave in to the terrorist's demands?) over that of woman. I am left speechless..."

Return of the King writes "A Milton, MA High School senior has filed a federal discrimination suit, saying his school is unfair to boys. Excerpt:

'At Milton High School, girls outnumber boys by almost 2 to 1 on the honor roll. In Advanced Placement classes, almost 60 percent of the students are female.

It's not that girls are smarter than boys, said Doug Anglin, a 17-year-old senior at the high school.

Girls are outperforming boys because the school system favors them, said Anglin, who has filed a federal civil rights complaint contending that his school discriminates against boys.

Among Anglin's allegations: Girls face fewer restrictions from teachers, like being able to wander the hallways without passes, and girls are rewarded for abiding by the rules, while boys' more rebellious ways are punished.'"

This story speaks for itself. "Boys in crisis" hits the media, followed immediately by a story regarding how things are so tough for the girls because of the way
those nasty boys are. Answer? Get those boys off campus, of course!

Shortly, I predict you will see very few men on college campuses, thanks to the likes of the AAUW and their feminist friends and sympathizers. Men with higher educations will be the exception (by 10%), not the rule, and we all will have to live with the consequences.

Sumanth writes "Blogged:

Women who abuse male kids create probable criminals of future.

Male kids who are tortured by women (mothers, aunts, sisters, maid servants) in their infancy, grow up with sub-conscious post traumatic stress, which makes them violent towards women (if they get cornered by women)."

This story is important because whether the report is accepted or not publicly by the government for what it says, eventually any shortfall in the supply of troops to fight for whatever reasons for the United States or its perceived interests will have to be "augmented" in a "cost-effective" manner. Anyone who still thinks that the draft is not on the table, think again. Note the results for the poll associated with the article, too. As of this writing, "Bring back the draft" is neck-and-neck for the lead among the responses.

So what does this story have to do with men's rights or interests directly as such, you ask? Well, suppose men and women would be drafted in proportion to their population and sent into combat also in proportion? Not any time soon.

Marc A. writes "This past Sunday the Antelope Valley Press ran a story about Valley Oasis, the only DV shelter in California, perhaps the U.S., that takes both male and female victims.

Valley Oasis' former director was put through "continuous abuse" by other shelter directors for helping men, according to her sworn declaration at: http://www.ncfmla.org/pdf/overberg.pdf.

Men travel hundreds of miles for services at Valley Oasis, in the remote desert community of Lancaster, California, because nobody else will help them."

MSN surprises from time to time, and did so today with this article discussing the most common ways men meet untimely demises, and how to avoid becoming a statistic.

bulldogo.1 writes "The author of this misses the whole point. She says that parenthood isn't about biology, but is about who raises the child and I agree. What is wrong about the situation is that the court only ackowledges fatherhood as an obligation to provide financially. It does not recognise the deception and fraud the mother has committed, not only on the ex-husband, but her own child. How much psychological damage is done when a parent lies to a child about this."
