AngryMan writes "In 2004 the Blair government commissioned a report into the gender 'pay gap'. It is published today, and surprise, surprise, it repeats the usual feminist myths. "Women earn 17% less than men", "There is widespread discrimination within the system", blah blah blah. The feminist account usually takes no account of men's and women's different priorities and life-choices, or the fact that men have greater cultural and psychological incentives to chase money, or the fact that women have other socially-acceptable ways of getting money apart from working for it. Instead, it describes everything in hopelessly simplistic terms of an evil conspiracy against women. Whenever feminism does take account of women's choices, it claims that these choices are invalid, and the result of cultural brain-washing. "It is because of structural problems; because of young girls' choices in schools and the fact that our careers education system completely fails to make them realise that the choices they make will determine what they earn". If women are happy with the choices they make, then what's the problem?
I'd also like to hear an answer to this one: If women are cheaper to employ than men, then why do employers ever hire men at all?"

The site makes it free and easy for women to publish libel about a man with no consequence to themselves.

Wiehl laughed as she state that all the men identified were probably "guilty as charged" -- i.e. cheaters, had venereal diseases, etc. We must correct this..."

This CNN article discusses possible progress in prostate cancer research. It seems that the cancer might be linked to a virus.

The article And Then He Hit Me
minimizes elder male domestic violence victimization. It was published
in the January/February 2006 issue of the AARP Magazine. The
author, David France, claims that the numbers of woman-on-man incidents of domestic violence are, in his words, “negligible”.
He also notes that data from a 1988 study of elder abuse in Boston
suggests that the extrapolated number of elders abused could be a
million a year.

Before moving to Nashville in 2001, he was active with the Fathers' Rights Association of NY State for several years. He was hand-picked to serve on a 1998 Legislative Task Force, and wrote the major portion of the report on Family Court Reform.

But, when he announced a run for Congress, he was snubbed by the media. You can read the details here.

Fighting pro-se, Tom got his ex-wife's NY lawyer sanctioned twice. The lawyer appealed twice, and lost ... twice."

Like a crop of mushrooms or crabgrass on the front lawn of academe, The Vagina Monologues is popping up all over to celebrate the springtime season of romance and endless victimhood and oppression. One such example: U of Rochester, Rochester, NY. There are dozens of other such examples of this piece of joy erupting on US and Canadian college campuses, as discussed in this MANN post.

Since the Vagina Monologues seems to be like Cerebrus, multi-headed guardian-hound of Hell, simultaneous attacks on the heads of the beast are probably a good strategy.

Homework for the month of March: check your local institution of "higher learning" and see if the beast is rearing one of its ugly heads there. If so, make your opinion about it heard to the producers, trustees, president, whoever. If enough people openly challenge the beast, it will lose potency and may one day retreat back to the firey depths from which it emerged.

The Washington Post, which normally and rightly condemns people who commit the most heinous of crimes, again balks when the perp is female. Their latest offense against common sense is here.

Excerpt:


All she wants is to set the record straight, Margarete says, for others to see her for the manipulated young woman she believed herself to be, not one of the criminal "blond beasts" that female SS are seen as. Her family learned her secret first -- and they believe her. When her daughter, Monika, was 16, Margarete recounted her life story. "At the time, I was enraged," Monika told one of Jacobeit's researchers in 2004. "But when I learned it wasn't voluntary -- that she'd been sent there -- well, what kind of chance did she have? What could she have done?"

Well, she could have refused, for one thing, accepting execution like any number of male draftees who refused to go along with the Nazi "program", or she could have worked within the system to undermine it in some way. But instead, like so many others of both sexes, she just went along.

Roy writes "A lesbian teacher who had sexual relations with a 17 year-old female student will not be charged with criminal sexual conduct, after her anonymous victim declined to press charges. She's been suspended without pay from her teaching job, pending a school board review. A local lesbian minister says it's a shame that when the schools need excellent teachers, this predator is being kept out of the classrooms. Note that if this case were about a male perpetrator, the state's "no drop" policies would guarantee his prosecution.

"LAURENS, S.C. (AP) -- It's the latest case of a female schoolteacher accused of having sex with a young boy.

Authorities in Laurens, South Carolina, have arrested a 36-year-old elementary school teacher on charges that she'd had sex with one of her eleven-year-old students."

The whole sordid story is here.
