Dittohd writes "All I've got to say is this guy better spend his winnings as fast as he can, before his ex can get the word, get all the advice she's going to get from all her girlfriends, and then sue him in court, saying that she should get half because he bought the ticket with "their" money while they were still married. Ha! ha!"

E-mail to admin@mensactivism.org is piped through some mailing list sofware that has been giving us problems for the past week. There are quite a few messages in the queue that have not yet been delivered, and it may take until the weekend for me to find time to fix the problem. The messages have not been lost but they are not accessible at this time. Your patience is appreciated.

Cain writes " Just one more female political group whose main agenda is hypocrisy."

Yep, it's the old do as we say, not as we do.

Benjamin Adam Studtmann writes "Oddly enough, Yahoo news is continuing to classify horrifying acts of public female violence as a mere current events trivialities. For example, a woman can publicly assault an 11-year-old boy in front of God and everybody at a water park, kicking him in the groin, and attacking bystanders who try to intervene. What will happen? Her water park pass will be revoked and she will receive trivial charges, the STRONGEST of which is third-degree assault. What would a news story look like in which a grown man, say at an ice cream parlor, slapped, punched, and kicked an 11-year-old girl to the ground for cutting in line front of him? What would the man be charged with, and how do you think our hypothetical case would be presented differently from the real one cited above? It is also intriguing to see the glimpses of personality revealed by the woman culprit's own words concerning unrelated subjects."

apetr writes "The American society of Civil Engineers feels the pressure that if there aren't just as many women in the field then something must be done! I find this sickening, how about a coalition to get more men into college. All the great achievments man (as in males) have made in techonology and engineering will get glossed over as it means nothing. If someone wants to be an engineer, it should be becasue they find the discipline awe inspiring, not because a handful of women were involved now lets make a curriculum out of it. Here is the article"

MSN reported (with characteristic lack of detail when it comes to these topics) that 1 in 36 Americans are in prison, on parole, or on probation.

Is it really any surprise, a report of this recent ruling requiring a sperm donor to pay child support? The justification again: best interests of the child. I will say this much though-- the old maxim that a verbal contract is not worth the paper it is written on holds in pretty much every context you can imagine, including this one. Keep watch for the fallout; it may be that this ruling serves as the basis for going after contractually anonymous sperm donors when the mother decides she wants a new sportscar and that "nice man out there" just may be the perfect means to that end.

Benjamin Adam Studtmann writes "Truly amazing. Here we have a fascinatingly frank article from a gal at Maxim, supposedly giving advice to younger men on how to hunt older women. In its insights, it reveals appalling shallowness, subterfuge, manipulativeness, condescension towards all males, bitterness towards 'commitmentphobes', an amazing neurosis concerning age (since when is 26 'old'?), and complete and utter disregard for any form of emotional link between two adults. Not only is it disregarded -- it is aggressively encouraged. This woman is specifically hunting for a 'toy' to use and drop like a used Kleenex, and is triumphantly proud of it. Moreover, she makes it clear that she beleives utterly that this is all that males have ever or will be interested in. Oh, and one more thing -- the 'older woman' should always be in charge of every aspect of the situation, because she's smarter and more experienced at everything than you, and don't you forget it. I have no problem with the idea of dating older women, but this person's attitude towards the entire thing left me wanting to take a shower and join a men's drumming circle. Please read it, and let us know what you think."

LSBeene writes "I wrote a response to Melanie Jacobs article that said that "Paternity Fraud is a legal theory". Mike LaSalle was kind enough to post it on MND. Due to the length (6 Pages in WORD) it is in the Archive Section. I sent my reply to Melanie too. My article:
here.
Paternity fraud isn't a "theory" any more than pregnancy is a "theory". It makes a wage slave of an innocent person so that a lazy deceitful person can steal to live more comfortably. The best parent is BOTH parents.

second article, and the

alphamale writes "While I do not know the population of Japan offhand, 34,000 suicides in a year seems to be a catastrophe no matter what the population is. This is a shocking loss of life in epidemic proportions. 75% of the suicides were committed by men. Yet nothing is done. You can bet if 75% of the suicides were of women, there would be a beating of breasts, tearing of robes with billions of yen being thrown at the problem. Japan is not an aberration, the percentage of suicide participants who are male is similar the world over, yet society continues to ignore these lost, neglected and forgotten souls. Check out the story here"

Anonymous User writes "There's a rule in Montreal that says men have to work 30 years to retire but that women have to work only 25.

Doctor Damage writes "This article really speaks for itself. My astonishment and outrage at the undisguised hatred that exudes from the people being quoted is exceeded only by my surprise that I can still be shocked and outraged by this stuff. Fortunately, Hairdressing salons have so far been reluctant to participate in being trained to recognise a man who drives his partner to the salon as abusive."

The world has begun to harvest the bitter fruit of feminism -- population collapse resulting from the ruination of male-female relations, the systematic removal of fathers from the family (the destruction of the traditional, nuclear family), and so-called "family planning" (birth-control and abortion). Fertility rates in most advanced nations continue to decline despite the fact that they are already, in some cases drastically, below replacement rate. (In advanced societies, replacement rate is about 2.1 births per woman, since a man and a woman must be replaced and not all children reach the age of average rate of reproduction. In less advanced societies, replacement fertility rate is higher due to a greater mortality rate among youths.)

This chart gives fertility rates by nation, region, and the world for the years 1970-1975 and 2000-2005 (projected, of course).

This article describes the overall failure thus far of Japan's effort to stave off disaster through its "new angel plan." I've read elsewhere that young men and women in Japan are increasingly avoiding each other -- the women preferring to shop and the men preferring to relieve sexual pressures in private, alone.

This article reports that more than 80% of German women are happy to live without a man "in tow."

The EU-parliament has a member who claims that he represents men's rights. Here's an article on him. While the guy strikes me as a nitwit, the article does point out that the UK's current paid-parental-leave policy is two weeks for fathers and six months for mothers.

Aaaaaah. Eeek-wallet-eeeee.
