Ray Blumhorst writes "A man who had his leg knocked out from under him in an act of domestic violence committed by a woman, doesn't have "standing" to sue for shelter services for men.
"What a strange (and cruel) irony in the use of that word (standing) from the English language," says Ray Blumhorst."

In today's NY Daily News there is a piece about a Boxer that appeared on the new reality boxing show "The Contender". He didn't meet the cut and committed suicide on Valentine's day in front of his girlfriend's house.
The article is almost a full page and after it points out that EVERYONE around him said the show was not the issue they keep trying to make the new show the issue. Even with the following quote they don't stop.

Garth writes "A recent study of roughly 900 teenagers suggests that growing apart from Dad makes children more prone to depression. The same link was not found when boys and girls grew apart from their mother. Maybe we should reverse the standard custody practises?"

bro writes "The University of California is reconsidering their earlier stance on a men's lit course called: "Literature By and About Men." You can find it Here.
After being accused of gender discrimination, the University of California has reversed an earlier decision to reject a lower-division English course called "Literature By and About Men."
I bet the feminists are fuming over this university's decision!"

Adam G. Alsop writes "I happened to come across your article on Taron James' Paternity Fraud case and thought that this link should be widely spread, as is speaks *directly* to the heart of that (and many similar cases).
In this appeal, the Court is VERY clear about the "wording" of the Law vs the "intent" of the law:
"The County, a political embodiment of its citizens and inhabitants, must always act in the public interest and for the general good. It should not enforce child support judgments it knows to be unfounded. And in particular, it should not ask the courts to assist it in doing so. Despite the Legislature’s clear directive that child support agencies not pursue mistaken child support actions, the County persists in asking that we do so. We will not sully our hands by participating in an unjust, and factually unfounded, result. We say no to the County, and we reverse."
This is a MAJOR victory for all those falsely accused of paternity and hit with a default judgement. While I am not in a similar position, I felt it important to pass along this information to you and your readers. Hopefully it will help set a standard across other states as well."

Philalethes writes "Fred Reed's latest column does it again:
'Maureen [Dowd] is the resentment columnist for the New York Times. ... In a recent column, headed "Men Just Want Mommy," ... we have the eternal cry (at least it’s beginning to feel eternal) of the unhappy feminist: "The whole world can’t stand me. What’s wrong with the whole world?" ... Actually, what men very much do not want is to marry Mommy. The problem for Maureen is that she is Mommy: censorious, moralizing, self-pitying, endlessly instructive, and so achingly tedious that men find themselves thinking of moldy bath sponges.'
Actually, it's all pretty depressing, but it's good to get a laugh out of it now and then; thanks, Fred."

On Monday February 14, the Men’s Resource Center of Western Massachusetts is running a Valentine’s Day advertisement (see below) which states, “Women are entitled to live their lives free of fear of abuse and violence.”
The ad conveniently forgets to mention that women are just as likely as men to commit domestic violence. Indeed, the advertisement promotes the worst stereotypes about the so-called “masculine culture of violence.”

bandersnatch writes "From The New York Times, THE question was bound to come up: If Carleton S. Fiorina were a man, would the outcome of her turbulent tenure as chief executive of Hewlett-Packard have been different?
Most management specialists say no. They contend that the company's misguided Compaq acquisition and sluggish performance would have taken down any chief executive, of either sex. And many note that Hewlett-Packard has tried hard to avoid any taint of sex discrimination; one woman, Ann M. Livermore, a respected Hewlett executive, is a possible candidate to replace Ms. Fiorina, and another, Patricia C. Dunn, is the nonexecutive chairwoman of Hewlett's board. As usual, feminists are spreading their doom and gloom message equating Carly's firing as a major setback for women."

Ray writes "Have a field day with this one: Official: Son Mistakes Parents' Sex For Domestic Abuse
Boy, 16, Charged With Assault With Deadly Weapon . This story is missing a few key details, but the details it gives create a whole new perception of how dysfunctional families can be dangerous places. Due to the gender feminists' widespread indoctrination of society, that there's a domestic violence epidemic in families, it's not too terribly surprising to see a "shoot first" attitude towards the family patriarch in this story."

Just look at this. See the sex-related differences? No surprise to many of us.

I just came across an interesting book review over at the The Age about the fertility crisis in Australia. Evidently, a certain half of humanity is still having alot of trouble seeing the link between action and reaction, and just can't quite figure out why their world of hurt is starting to get bigger. And of course, the fact that everything else should change (the nearest man, the enviroment, the workplace policies etc) to suit them, while they remain the same won't strictly encourage you to empathize.
Oh yeah, since it's The Age, read it quick, since they're infamous for archiving their stuff in under a week.
