When it comes to committing domestic violence, women are fully the equal of men. Scores of research studies in the United States and elsewhere show that women are just as likely as men to engage in partner aggression. And fully 38% of persons who suffer injuries from domestic violence are male. [See http://www.mediaradar.org/media_fact_sheet.php]

But the New York Times consistently portrays the domestic violence issue as men who beat up their wives and girlfriends. That depiction is scurrilous and false.

zozo writes "Professor Catharine MacKinnon recently spoke at Stanford, equating violence against women with the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the US. “The number of people who died at [the terrorists’] hands is the same as the number of women who die at men’s hands-every year,” she said. “A kind of war is being fought, but there is no name for this war in which men are the aggressors and women the victims.”

Does this sort of rhetoric really help gender equity?"

This highly graphic online game encourages girls to throw rocks at boys. It makes light of it. Makes it fun. Rewards you with a graphic depiction of the boy getting hurt.

Where will it end?"

Ray writes "An old gender feminist mantra says, "A woman would never lie about anything as horrible as rape." And here , when we see not just another woman lying about being raped, but a President of a NOW chapter, some other woman still has the nerve to tell us, "...if we (women) get the reputation of lying, then people won't start to believe us if it (rape) does happen." Uh, does that mean that someday men accused of rape will no longer be assumed guilty until proven innocent?"


It will be interesting to see what action, if any, NOW takes as a result of this. Usually when chapter presidents of "charitable" organizations commit serious crimes they are removed from the organization. - Hombre

Ray writes "The Master's Tournament is at it again, and so is Martha Burk. Uh, not exactly parallel events. The Masters is a golf tournament and the other is a feminist protest of the tournament. The protest supposedly draws attention to the tournament's allegedly horrible oppression of women. Carrie Lukas writes here . '...as sure as the Azaleas will bloom, millions of Americans are going to watch the final round on Sunday. In doing so, they will be celebrating golf's finest tradition, not a scourge against women.'"

I think its great more men are reporting abuse, but check out this quote from the
article.

Attorneys are working on an arrangement to have Deneitra Ham remain with the children at the couple's home on the condition that her husband leave the house and the two stay apart, the station reported.

I don't know if its both thier attorneys, or if its just hers. But I do know this, If it were a male that smacked a female in the head with a wine bottle, his butt would be in jail and he would lose his kids due to the domestic violence card being played

Just my 2 cents

Four 15-year-old girls from Boston
were arrested at the scene and charged with unarmed robbery and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon (a shod foot) in the beating where they beat a minority girl who was part of a progam that brings urban kids to suburban schools. Naturally, the article does not say that the attackers are girls unless one reads well into the story. Also, this took place in the town where 5 high school boys got expelled from a school because a girl gave them oral sex in a locker room (and she had been doing this on a regular basis)."
