RandomMan writes "This is unbelievable. At the University of Utah, they're going to start programs to attract more women, including day care and women-only scholarships because according to the article, the university "bucks the trend" and actually has the audacity to have more males than females attending undergraduate programs, whereas the national trend is the reverse, with men outnumbered by women almost everywhere.

Their hypocrisy is unbelieveable. In effect, the article is saying: "women don't outnumber men, so something must be done to correct this situation". There is absolutely no interest in "equality", Title IX or correcting the overwhelming discrimination against men in the educational system. Where are the programs to correct the national over-representation of women on college and university campuses?

Let's hope they teach both irony and Orwell in freshman English Lit: 'All people are created equal, but some are more equal than others.'"

Tirryb writes "Another story of female violence - News.com.au reports here
on two 14 year old girls, arrested for the beating and murder of a disabled taxi driver. The poor guy had only been back at work for a week, after being robbed at gunpoint twice in the past...

They are also being held over other robberies. I wonder how long it will be before a man somewhere is blamed for their behaviour, poor things."

Here's an editorial on choice for men. It was actually published in the newspaper of a US university, the University of Northern Iowa.

The fembots and femboys must be going crazy with the way things are developing these days.

Marc A. writes "The Italian Senate just approved a new law that will make joint custody the norm in Italy. Excerpt:

"The legislation makes joint custody of children the norm when parents split up. This means single-parent custody - which usually goes to the mother - will now only be granted in a minority of cases."

Some fathers' rights groups, however, point out that the bill is too watered down."

Anonymous User writes "And they would have us believe that women NEVER do this kind of thing!"

Ed. note: In the MSN story, it has a mid-article red-colored link: Workplace shootings almost always by men. Suppose an article on the topic of, oh, I dunno, say sexual extortion by a male of a female, would ever headline with "Sexual extortion almost always perpetrated by women"?

This piece, justifying the rape of male youths by women, is from Pravda. You'll be happy to see of the Mary Kay Leturno case "Luckily, the story ended quite happily, and the woman was pardoned." You'll also learn that "Men are more inclined to employ women's weak points for their selfish ends." This latter statement is followed by a description of how David Ashbrook was allegedly driven from his job for refusing to have sex with his female boss. (That's an example of how "Men are more inclined to employ women's weak points for their selfish ends"???)

Well, in Russia, there are now many more abortions than births and the population is dropping by nearly 1 million a year. Perhaps this form of anti-male madness has something to do with that national collapse?

Luek writes "Yet another overrated misandric radfem checks out at age 55. First Dworkin, now feminist playwright Wendy Wasserstein dies.

Her seriously misandric works included The Heidi Chronicles (not to be confused with the Sci-Fi classic, The Martian Chronicles) and of course the all time favorite, The Sisters Rosensweig.

"The Heidi Chronicles," is about an insecure feminist heroine's life over a 20-year period beginning in the late 1960s and changes her attitudes about herself, men and other women. "The Sisters Rosensweig" concerned three female siblings who find strength in themselves and in each other. The usual self-serving stuff. Yawn!

Has anyone heard from that over-the-hill (70+ years old!) arch-misandrist, Gloria Steinhem lately?"

bulldogo.1 writes "Good to see public identities doing things that bring the plight of fathers into the media. As more and more men like Baldwin or are put throught the divorce and custody circus, the more men's rights will be in the public forum. They have the fame and financial resources to help men's plight. Sadly, it's the only way that people will sit up and listen. Maybe Baldwin would be interested in doing a movie that tells the real story. Story here."

MR writes " Man Fatally Shot by Ex-Wife's Grandmother

"A man picking up his young son for a supervised court visit was shot twice at point-blank range by the boy's 81-year-old great-grandmother and died of his injuries, police said.

Alex Reyes, 26, was shot Saturday while picking up his 18-month-old son, said Jim Amormino, a spokesman for the Orange County Sheriff's Department.

"There was no argument," he said. 'She just pulled the gun out and started firing.'"

Roy writes "This piece linked from Angry Harry's web site covers a critically important court case in Britain that will determine whether a divorcing man will be obligated to provide a percentage of his future (post-divorce) earnings to his ex-wife. He already must give her 50% of everything acquired during the marriage. Excerpt:

'This will be argued on the grounds that his money-making potential should be treated as an income-yielding asset that Kenneth could not have built up without the contribution of Julia in building the home and looking after the children. Kenneth McFarlane is senior tax partner at the accountants Deloitte, earning more than £750,000 a year, and his marriage to Julia lasted more than 16 years. She gave up her career as a solicitor with a City firm to look after their children.
James Pirrie, a solicitor with Family Law in Partnership, who is acting for Julia McFarlane, said: "The fruits of the partnership should be shared equally. One of the things created by a marriage is an earning capacity.'"

Marc A. writes "Link here. Excerpt:

'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?
