Aquix writes "The National School Board Association, here, suggest specific dress code restrictions on boys only. Girls should be allowed to wear pants and dresses, but boys should not be given the choice of the two.

While many may agree, it's yet another example where girls get a choice and boys are excluded."

Damn. This essay would belong in the lowest of tabloids, if only it didn't contain so much truth. It really captures how bad things have gotten.

In his examination of anti-male discrimination throughout society, including the police forces and courts, Michael Gilson De Lemos states, "Increasingly, thanks to the Internet, a variety of eccentric but informative sites have emerged as men begin to talk to one another and realize that if the Nation had been invaded by psychopathic infiltrators from Mars who had jimmied the entire legal system and brainwashed their very families, things could scarcely be worse."

I was happy to see De Lemos go on to say, "these (Internet) sites regularly collect hard-to-find government statistics, collate similar stories from many sources and countries, and act as an intellectual underground for academics who go to them to track down contrarian information that has disappeared from State University research libraries — and, as I found recently, which sites are censored so they cannot be accessed from some Public Libraries."

By the way, De Lemos is on the US Libertarian Party's National Committee.

Folks: We are having a powerful impact. Group hug! Group hug!

P.S. Thanks and a tip o' the hat to Angry Harry, on whose site I found the link to this article.

MANN admins received a request from a reader who asked that her inquiry regarding Spike TV and how it portrays men be passed along to MANN redership. Please see "Read More" for the details and her contact information. Also please note that this request for feedback times out in two weeks (ie, on Oct. 28, 2004) since it is pursuant to a college assignment.

Well, I was conflicted with myself on posting this. Surely there are supporters of Sen. Kerry as well as Pres. Bush who are MANN regulars. In the end though this is about getting the facts right and discouraging pols from pandering to feminists by promulgating their falsehoods. Regardless of whether you are a Bush or Kerry supporter, most MANN readers would agree that any politican promulgating the wage gap myth does a disservice to men, to the truth, and also ultimately to women and children as well. So please contact the Kerry campaign by phone or fax regarding Sen. Kerry's incorrect statement in last night's debate that asserted the standard falsehood that women underearn men 76 cents on the dollar for the same work under the same circumstances. Please see the transcript if you need to, searching on "76 cents" to find the line.

Seems that the misandric self hating Attorney General of Michigan Mike Cox has backpedaled on one part of a campaign to further marginalize and criminalize non custodial parents (90% of the time this is fathers) in a bizarro contest aimed at the children of broken homes. Their artwork was to be used to help keep the child support racket going. Note: Father's rights groups were instrumental in getting this Cox cretin to back off!"

Just to allay any doubts that may have existed, the femboy, Alex Linhardt, is still Associate Arts & Entertainment Editor at the Cornell Daily Sun.

dougwells writes "Here is yet another grossly misleading domestic violence article by a university student newspaper (Idaho State University) that quotes a number of false (anti-male) statistics. Please let them know that such dishonest (or lazy) reporting should not be tolerated."

Indianmale writes "This report comes from Singapore. The coverage is very pro-male, comprehensive. During the last six months, I've read stories on this topic from India, South Africa, Barbados, Malaysia, and now Singapore. I think it's a good beginning."

We’re only two weeks into October, and I’ve tracked about 175 news items from traditional media and blogs all over the US. The first ten days was mainly about various fundraisers and events, now we get into the important news!

There has never been a better time to contact your local media and government officials and have your voice heard! Communities all over the country have begun to question their domestic violence programs, laws, and procedures. It’s time for you to speak up and be a force for change! You can have the most impact at the local level, which is where the changes are beginning. District attorneys, law enforcement administrators, public officials of all kinds will soon be involved in re-visiting old policies that no longer serve their communities.

Every media outlet mentioned in the DLJ has heard from me – now it’s your turn to add your voice! Check the DLJ for activities in your local area.

MANN administrators also received a request from a reader to sign a petition addressed to Pres. Bush, the Congress, and the Supreme Court, demanding redress for the ignoring or misapplication of Constitutional principles that has resulted in the problems of fathers separated from their children, imprisoned, abused, and driven to suicide by the legal system. The note MANN admins received is below under "Read More". The link to the petition is http://www.petitiononline.com/usncpr.

MANN Admins received a note from Dr. Richard C. Weiss, displayed below in the "Read More" section, for support for the Alabama NCP class action lawsuit. Especially if you live in Alabama, please take the time to express your support of the action to the presiding judge.

Anonymous User writes "What's interesting is for the first half the usual excuses are given, then this quote:


"They may be even more committed than their male colleagues, because they have more social hurdles to overcome. But in the West, they are often tied to the conventional stereotype of reacting to male violence."


After this, interesting read.

Dave K writes "Shocked me to read it...
It appears that some of the liberal media is realizing that this is a subject that is going to be addressed... irregardless of how much they try to ignore it. Lawsuits accross all 50 states is something I would certainly consider newsworthy."

Via a comment to the previous post, I was made aware of this newly-formed group at UNH to fight the kind of misandry we have been seeing there. Great work guys!!! The fight will be hard and an uphill battle for sure, but men have got to stand up for themselves and this is one way you are doing it. Congratulations and I hope you will succeed at building membership and freeing your campus from the grip of feminist tyranny.

Here is an update on the fallout from Whitney Williams article and claim of being the target of a death threat, dated Oct. 8, 2004.
