This is another take on the reduction of men (and Americans in general) in the sciences and mathematics fields. It is also very well-written, funny, and makes some very good points.

Warble writes "Here comes the nationwide roundup of men. We all know that VAWA is loaded with language that will create massive new federally funded family prosecutions centers, and that those centers are designed to collect data on all men. That data will of course be entered into a permanent National database. No charges or arrest will be required. All that is required is for a police officer or some mandated reporter to file paperwork on the hated male. Now we have news of an amendment that would permit compulsory collection male DNA without charges or an arrest. Still think we should ask for equal treatment as RADAR suggest? NOT! This bill is to be opposed outright. This is no poison pill. It is the actual agenda of our Congress in relation to VAWA and the coming round-up men."

qronick writes "Guy Harrison of Fathers 4 Justice, the same guy as pelted Tony Blair with purple powder last year, climbed up on the Houses of Parliament today for his daughter's seventh birthday.

I love how the powers that be gloss over the real issue by prattling on about "security breaches" -- it's classic psychological denail. Half a minute's thought and we might a) realize that the security forces in a "free" country cannot stop anyone who is truly determined and b) wonder why a father can't see his daughter on her 7th birthday. So, yeah, why not...?"

Anonymous User writes "M is for Malevolent reports on a case from the Rapid City Journal where a young man's life was worth far less than the testimony of a few young girls who needed an excuse for truancy. The alibis of the young man from his job and those who were with him that day didn't matter, and neither did the evidence. What mattered was that he was male, and the girls picked his picture out of a police book of photos. He spent 86 days in jail, was severely beaten by other prisoners, lost his job, his home, and his car. Just for being a man."

The five men on Lynndie England's jury didn't buy her defense that love made her sexually torment male prisoners at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq.

So goes the continuing saga of the modern, American pinup girl. (We used to have the likes of Rita Hayworth. Sigh.)

Here's yet another piece on the collapse of male education. The point should not be missed that the phenomenon, of males fleeing from the academy, is taking place throughout the developed world, where family breakdown, extreme population aging, and impending catastrophic rates of population collapse are the other dominant characteristics of social evolution. Together, these circumstances threaten to ravage advanced societies.

In her superb "The War Against Boys," Chistina Hoff Sommers carefully analyzed the causes of society's growing failure to properly educate boys. Imbued with feminism, the academy has become a bastion of misandry. Unfortunately, with politicians living in fear for their careers in face of feminist wrath, and with mainstream media steeped in feminism, it remains unlikely that anything more than superficial corrections will be applied to solve this problem.

We are losing a significant proportion of another generation of boys, and, partly because of this, our populations will collapse at an unsustainable rate. At the very least, we should inform boys that, when the misery sets in and they want to hold a culpable person responsible, they should look for a feminist.

Senator Joseph Biden has long been the prime mover behind the Violence Against Women Act. He organized the first hearings in the early 1990s. He wrote the legislation and sponsored the bills. He did the arm-twisting. At the Senate Judiciary Committee hearings in July, Joseph Biden admitted, "this law is my baby."

MANN received a submission from Evil White Male Oppressor pointing out this story entitled "Women bypass sex in favour of 'instant pregnancies'" from the BBC website. Side-linked from it was this one entitled "Doctors may disregard 'need for a father' when deciding on IVF". From that story I followed this one entitled "Ban on sex selection could be lifted".

See a pattern forming here?

"This week, Musharraf returned from a U.S. visit marred by controversy over his reportedly telling The Washington Post that many Pakistanis see rape allegations as a way for women to make money and get visas to leave the country. He later denied saying that, but the newspaper said the recorded interview proved he was correctly quoted.""

*That was sarcasm up there, I know she's from NOW, just amazes me that they get so much publishing space in a nat'l newspaper*"

TLE writes "Is this what the radical feminists want? Boys are now permitted on girls' high school teams, just like girls can join boys' teams. Of course, the coach won't actually let them play against opposing teams! Can't beat up on the girls! Maybe this is how this type of absurdity will end. There are no rules about the numbers of boys on girls teams, so the whole girls' team could be made up of boys! But probably, it will get fixed in a PC way, that is, making rules to protect girls from defeat by boys, but not the reverse."

bandersnatch writes "From AutoBlog -- "Volvo’s Sweden division has been convicted by the Sweden Labor Court of gender discrimination and ordered to pay the equivalent of $5,200 to a woman who was denied a job at a plant because she was too short to work on an assembly line. How their legal department missed that one, we have no clue. Evidently the gap between denying someone a job for being too short to denying someone a job because she’s a woman was bridged by calling it ”indirect gender discrimination.” According to the plant’s hiring policy, employees must be between 5'5" and 6'5" to work on the assembly line, and the court ruled that since this excluded more women than men, it was gender discrimination." Remember Volvo is the company that created the world's first concept female car. Poor Volvo -- they had to learn the hard way, give the feminists an inch and they will take a mile."

On August 17, RADAR sent a five-page letter (.pdf file) to Amnesty International – USA about its Stop Violence Against Women Campaign, complaining that the campaign violates the basic human and civil rights of men.

When Amnesty didn’t bother to respond, RADAR put out an Alert on September 19, requesting people to contact AI. The folks at AI obviously got an earful, because three days later – that’s warp speed for an organization like Amnesty – AI head Bill Schulz answered. His letter is shown below.

Tirryb writes "This study by the Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital in Perth, Australia
has shown that drink spiking is not as common as was at first thought.

Women apparently often report to hospital claiming that their drinks have been spiked, "the scenario of an offender slipping a sedative into another person's drink, presumably to stupefy them in order to take advantage of them". Most of the study participants were women under the age of 25...

But what the study found was that in the vast majority of cases, they had either taken recreational drugs themselves or had not realised how drunk they were - no spiking ocurred...!

Sounds like this is another scaremongering uncovered to me..."
