Mangesh writes "This article is from Malaysia. Particularly good in the opening. It starts with some historical perspective on violent behavior by women - from Catherine II to Lynndie England. It also mentions that violence by wives against their husbands is quite common in Malyasia, but men don't report it because they are ashamed to admit what happened to them, and that women abuse children as much as (or maybe more than) men do. The later part is somewhat disappointing. It offers a number of explanations (excuses) for femal violent behavior.
It seems that the media in diffrent parts of the world has begun to report on violence by women and/or against men. Surly a good sign!

Betrayed in America writes "The wage gap brought MRA's to Kerry's "womens issues" thread. This opened the door to the report (not study) used to foster womens vote, by MRA's. A lot of debunking going on there. Also the MRA's injected some men's issues. . .to the point were a mens issue's thread was opened. Now I don't know if the thread was an attempt to derail the men on the wage gap or a genuine desire to here mens issues. Either way there is a public thread on a presidetial candidates site. It seems to be a good opportunity to get some issues into public debate. Please be courtious as they tend to ban people easily there. Beware there are a couple of seemingly feminist that are attempting to trivialize and deter the issues. Stay focused. . .have fun! One note: If the link doesn't work. . .the thread is listed under the topic of "womens issues" as "issues that concern men"."
Update: Betrayed in America writes "Its under "Civil rights for all Americans" now. Here's the
link."

Read this article in Forbes on-line, off-linked from the AOL AIM news pop-up. The article is glaring in its omissions. My letter to the editor is below (comments to Forbes can be submitted here).

The_Beedle writes "The Associated Press ran a report last Friday on the gender wage gap in which they claim that women earn less than men for the same work. Once again the crucial factor in earnings, the number of years an individual has been performing their job, is left out.
For comments AP spoke exclusively to women. They mention education, but fail to mention that women now receive more degrees than men. And for the finale the economist they quote equates single-parenthood with motherhood and argues that employers should be forced to pay more for less productive workers."

Anonymous User writes "Here's a convoluted piece of writing, Politically Correct, Pseudoscientific Ideologies Targeting Groups of People in the Golden State that compares and contrasts California's past practices with present day practices in regards to the Golden State's "unique ways" of dealing with issues of "societally deficient" human beings, human sexuality, and "gender." Apparently, today's males have not been the first group of people to be systematically stigmitized, demonized, and persecuted by "Golden State" politics and pseudoscientific hokum. The details presented in this article, reveal a fascinating past and present for the "Golden State" that is a truth hiding in plain sight, yet seldom mentioned. Gee, I wonder why?"

Roy writes "Frequent poster to MANN Ray Blumhorst was quoted in a "Commentary" piece by Kathleen Parker (6.2.02) - "Blindsided by Political Correctiness..." an essay regarding the damages done to feminism by the recent Abu Ghraib scandals.
Ray's quote: "What happened in Abu Ghraib is no isolated incident, no abberation," wrote Ray Blumhorst... I have little doubt that all of the females implicated at Abu Ghraib will have little trouble finding jobs in the multi-billion-dollar VAWA (Violence Against Women Act) domestic violence industry, just as soon as American, gender feminist justice rationalizes away all their misbehavior."

Ray Blumhorst writes "Domestic violence information is honestly reported here, Women who batter, and the men who fear them Male victims of domestic violence really need to be written about in main stream media, but rarely are. Robert L. Jamieson shows journalistic integrity by objectively reporting the events in this story, without all the usual domestic violence industry misinformation and lies we so frequently see in media coverage of domestic violence stories."

CPM writes "Story here "The killing appeared especially shocking because of the age of the children involved and the fact that both were girls. "
The age of the killer can legitimately be referred to as "shocking", but there is nothing shocking about a female killer. The shocking part is that it made the news and that she was actually identified as female. There are many stories I see where a violent female is referred to as a: coworker, friend, acquiantence, classmate, or other gender neutral term. Many times even after reading the entire article, the gender of the perp is still not divulged - which is a near guarantee that it is female. They also had to throw in a couple mentions of young boy killers to show that young killers are supposed to be male."

A Parma woman who carried on a two-year sexual affair with a boy who was 13 when it began dodged prison Wednesday when a judge sentenced her to probation on felony sex charges.
Dawn Bacon, a 34-year-old mother of three, pleaded guilty earlier to 20 counts of unlawful sexual contact with a minor. She will serve six months of electronically monitored home confinement and must continue psychotherapy...
Another story in the same vein article 2
Jennifer Joel Wilder, 33, was charged with sexual battery on May 14. She is free on $10,000 bond.
Authorities said Wilder was a science teacher at East Central High School. They said the teenager was not in any of her classes."

Luek writes "If you go to the Men's News Daily site regularly you will notice the cartoon strip Day By Day written by someone called Chris Muir. This strip has recently given in to the concept that violence against men by females is okay and humorous. The current one, as of 4 June, has a male character called Zed getting slapped by a female character because he sent a picture of her breasts, I think it was, over the internet.
I sent Mr. Muir this e-mail protesting his condoning of violence against men by females as okay and funny." See the Read More section for the e-mail.

frank h writes "According to this article, Scott Peterson's double murder trial begins today. For me, there's no question: if he's guilty, he deserves his punishment. Put aside, for a moment, the notion that he's being tried for one kind of murder that women commit every day in this country. Consider, instead, the harsh treatment he'll receive at the hands of the media and compare that with the sympathetic way in which Clara Harris was treated during her murder trial. Ladies and gentlemen, I submit to you a true and clear demonstration of anti-male bias in the media."

Interesting is the commentary contrasting things in GB with here in the US, New York in particular.

Steve Krakauer writes "Check out this story about New Jersey's court ruling banning Ladies Night promotions at bars and clubs after a man took a club to court claiming gender bias.
I guess equal rights means paying equal for drinks and cover also...
It makes sense."
