Anonymous User writes "The Interfraternity Council at Penn State voted to establish fraternities as "rape free zones", "educate" the fraternity members about sexual assault, and place optional "rape free zone" stickers on their doors. There is also an editorial from the student newspaper commenting on this plan, justifying the feminist idea that "all men are rapists". This is similar to an incident a few years ago when the campus "Men Stopping Rape" group placed urinal splashguards on campus reading “You Hold the Power to Stop Rape in Your Hands.” as well."

frank h writes "Okay, this probably isn't really BIG news, but it is unusual: A woman elected to state office being accused of sexual harassment, by some of her aides. I've always wondered why it is that this and related indiscretions by men are big news, while women who stray across the line are given a pass. Have any of you wondered when a woman elected to office was going to have an affair exposed by the media? (Don't believe for a minute they don't happen!)"

It's certainly possible for someone to be oversensitive about what they perceive as sexual harassment. Nevertheless, I'm sure harassment can be severe enough create a horrible, untenable situation for the target. This article highlights the fact that we need to bear a few things in mind. Men are often considered far more likely than women to cheat in relationships, despite the fact that every survey and study I've seen for the last few years (sorry, I don't have links handy) has indicated that women are at least as likely to cheat. Men are generally considered far more likely than women to commit domestic violence, despite the fact that studies consistently show that women commit at least as much DV against men as men do against women, women initiate the domestic violence more often than men do, and women commit most DV against children.

I wouldn't doubt that, if the truth ever comes out about sexual harassment in and out of the workplace, we'll find that women commit at least as much as men.

Yep, It's a good one. I would advise you to keep a very close eye on folk like Michael Moore for the simple reason that as the winds of change blow our way, people like him will try to double back on what they said, and get all man friendly and the like. Of course, we won't fall for that will we?

You want to know what this is really about? This is about making men pay for sex. Yep, from alimony to child support and everything in between, men get thrown into prison for not wanting to be treated like a sub-human. I think I better get to work on updating my anti-alimony article....

I haven't either but I have seen snipetts of the film. and guess what? we apearantly have yet ANOTHER whip crackin' dominatrix type woman that will, You guessed it;, tie up, gag, beat up and hit men with a whip.
since the subject of anti-man violence has been brought up on other posts, I just thought I'd give every one a heads up on this little gem of a flick.
Frankly I'm sick to death of these types of films. and I wish there was more protest from men about them.
The film is to be released on July 30th 2004.
How long do we let this go on?"

Crunch time guys: In an age where there is nothing a woman is forbidden to use against the nearest man, and where a man can't use even the most basic self defense to defend himself, I want every man reading this to ask himself one question: Do I want to fight fair, or effectively?

In this essay, former prosecutor, Craig Silverman, states that "during my time as a prosecutor who made case filing decisions, I was amazed to see all the false rape allegations that were made to the Denver Police Department. It was remarkable and surprising to me. You would have to see it to believe it."

I wonder how many of these were formally filed false reports for which no prosecution took place.

Silverman goes on to say, "Any honest veteran sex assault investigator will tell you that rape is one of the most falsely reported crimes that there is. A command officer in the Denver Police sex assaults unit recently told me he placed the false rape numbers at approximately 45 percent."

The article is part of a dispute between Silverman and Jeff Shapiro, a former reporter for the tabloid "The Globe", who is apparently coming out with a book about the Kobe Bryant case. If you want to skip much of the stuff related to the dispute between these two and get to the former prosecutor's statements on the rate of false accusations of rape, seach the page for "For 16 years" and read that paragraph and the following several paragraphs.

As anyone knows, if they've been reading the news linked from this site for even a few months, one of the few ways that men are able to prove their innocence, when they're falsely accused of sexual assault, is by providing a recording of the sex act. In this case a man was sentenced to one and a half years in prison and three and a half years of extended supervision for recording consensual sex acts. According to the defense attorney, the recordings were never shown outside of his house or distributed in any way, and there is no indication in the article that anyone disputed this fact or the fact that the sex was consensual.

By removing more evidence from the defense, this could prove to be extremely dire for falsely accused men.

I've got to share this. Any man who is contemplating marriage should watch "Divorce Court" on TV. I just had to sit through a show for some research that I'm doing, and it was an eye opener.

The divorcing man accused his wife of domestic violence. When the judge asked the woman if it was true, the woman gave a snide smile and a little nod, which the judge took to mean "yes." When the judge told the woman that her actions were against the law, the woman kept saying, "He ain't gonna call (the police). He ain't gonna call." The judge lectured her about how she could go to jail for domestic violence but did nothing. (Would the judge have had the husband taken off to jail if he had admitted to beating his wife?)

In fact, the woman admitted to threatening on several occasions to call the police on her husband, when she was angry at him for (one example) using dishwashing liquid to wash the clothes. When the judge asked the woman what she would have told the police if she had called them, if she would have lied to the police, the woman just smirked. It was clear that she could have made a false accusation against her husband, who always left when she ordered him to. One time he had just stepped out of the shower, was wearing nothing but a towel, and had to cross town to go to a friend's house in the cold.

The kicker was at the end when the judge ruled on the settlement, gave everything but one car to the woman, and said to the woman (I swear this is true) "There's such a thing as equality, and you're getting most of it."

My god! I'm gonna have to remember that one.

I guess if a man is madly in love and has a desperate need to have kids, he'll want to get married, but men need to wake up and realize something. If a man is ever alone with a woman and doesn't record every moment, under the law he becomes that woman's slave. She may or may not do it, but she knows she can beat him with near assurance of impunity and destroy him in a moment with a false accusation.

As K. C. Wilson states in this essay, "Any fraud a man commits is called a crime. In forty-six states, the one exclusive to women is protected." He goes on to say, "Estimates are based on limited data but range from 3% to 5% of all children may be fathered by someone other than who they call by that name." I'm not sure where he got that statistic. From what I've read the rate for the entire population is about 10% and for the self-selected group of men who are suspicious the rate is about 30%. In any case, it's a prevalent, monstrous crime that is legal.

Here's yet another story of a false rape claim. Note that Washtenaw County Sheriff's Cmdr. Dave Egeler stated, "I'm not sure charges (for filing a false police report) are likely." The article goes on to state that next Wednesday's safety awareness meeting will still be held. Janet Hawkins, a spokeswoman for the community college said, "This will be an opportunity for us to review our safety procedures on campus."

Why do I doubt they'll be discussing how to make men safe from false accusations?

And here's a story of a false accusation of assault against a homeless man, who spent eight months in jail as a result. At least in this case, the girls were arrested. Since they were apprehended at school, students saw that society might be starting to hold females responsible for their actions.
