Lee Newman writes "The first Commission on the Status of Men in the World has been established in NH.
This Commission was appointed by the Governor to address health concerns and other issues that affect men. This is a very important and necessary initiative considering the high rates of male suicide and other major health, family and even the legal concerns of men.

VIP/SAFE-NH will take an active role in assisting the Commission regarding the issues surrounding violence against boys and men. Everyday we see the impact on men caused by the gender bias that is frequently present in provision of services and compassionate understanding.
We see the impact on boys who are beginning to believe that they are going to grow up to be “bad men”, because of the gender bias they observe and experience as young children.
After a while, if society only hears one version of the ”truth” they begin to believe that it is the only truth…we hope that this Commission will bring another perspective forward that needs to be considered.
Depression, isolation, suicide, stress related illnesses, emotional trauma, homelessness and other issues have a serious impact on the men and boys who go without the services and care provided to women and girls…it is time to “take gender out” of these issues and
”put humanity in”!

We hope that those in our State who have been prejudiced against the formation of this Commission will eventually see it as a good thing for all of us who enjoy the “quality of life” in NH and want to make sure that ALL of our citizens have the chance to pursue that as well!

Another example of the Christian feminist domestic violence industry.

I understand Elizabeth Cady Staton not only belonged to and frequented church, she also owned her own personal copy of the Bible! I hope that comes as a real eye opener for everyone. Yes, Christianity has a long history of affiliation with the Feminist movement.

Anonymous User writes "It looks like the New York Times hasn’t changed much even after the public exposure about their bias. Here is a recent article titled “Abused Mothers Keep Children in a Test of Rights and Safety.” In case the link breaks, here’s an excerpt that gives the gist of the article: “Domestic violence has always been a tricky problem for child welfare workers. Studies have shown, for instance, that households victimized by domestic violence can be spectacularly dangerous, even lethal, for children. And even temporary interventions — the brief removal of children or the forced treatment of the parents — can be undone as battered mothers return again and again to their abusive husbands or partners.”

Ah, those wacky feminists are at it again.

TLE writes "Yet another man gets tortured for laughs in this ad. It's for Washington Mutual, a bank apparently. The dumb dorky guy is so happy with his loan from this bank that nothing can get him down. He gets a pot of hot coffee spilled on his head, which is fine with him. Then of course, the deal closer. He gets hit in the groin with a bowling ball! How original. Excuse me while I rush out and get a loan! Not! Anyone else seen it??"

Marc writes "Here is a good article on male domestic violence victims in the military. The article helps confirm that the military is way ahead of the domestic violence movement on this issue. This is exactly what we found when we set up a table at the DV Conference in San Diego, CA this year (where rad-fems tried to get us barred). We came across a number of military folks there who knew, based on their experience in doing DV work in the military while free from feminist propaganda, that men and women are initiating the violence at about the same rate. They explained that their military programs emphasize communication and preventative measures (as Warren Farrell and SAFE do) rather than reactionism, blame, bashing, and gender politics, and that as a result they have seen a marked reduction in the frequency of the problem. Will the DV industry ever learn from this?"

Roy writes "NY Times article briefly looks at several controversies in the ongoing marriage debate, brought on by the recent Massachusetts recognition of same-sex marriage.

One interesting fact is that single households in the U.S. now outnumber those occupied by a married couple.

And, there's a growing interest in getting the government out of the marriage contract, leaving partners to determine exactly what the terms of marriage will be... including even the option of "renewable" short-term vows.

Between the men's marriage "strike" and multiple emerging forms of matrimony, it looks like the traditional church-blessed union may be fading away....

frank h writes "This is the second time in as many months I've seen an article on this topic. It seems that Neilsen is saying that TV viewership among males 18-34 is dropping sharply, and the networks are blaming Neilsen's research methods (!@@!). They simply can't see (or refuse to acknowledge) that the emperor is nekkid."



In a related story it seems a local newpaper has lost much of its Jewish demographic after repeatedly portraying Jews as bumblers, depicting violence against Jews as humor, condemning Jews as dangerous, and repeatedly stating that any problems which affect Jews are unimportant and whining since a lot of the businesses in the world are owned by Jews and besides that talking about their problems won't get them laid. Experts are stumped.

"UNITED NATIONS -- Media mogul Ted Turner has taken a small step to demonstrate his belief that women should run the world because men have "mucked it up" with too much warfare and military spending."

Turner is a very powerful man, we need a large and cohesive backlash to this...now."

An Anonymous User submitted the following message that was sent to the Subway corporation: "Just a comment on your latest ad campaign. I'm referring to the one in which a man is shown being hit in the groin at the end, for no reason, not that any would justify the physical harm. I wonder why you consider this funny. Your poor taste and insensitivity has just lost you another customer - after years of supporting you, no one in my family will eat at a Subway again. Fire the ad agency, clean up your act!" Please comment if you've seen this ad.

albundy writes "My Gym has a "women only" workout area but no corresponding "men only" area. I complained to the manager but was told, "That's just the way it is." I live in California. Is anyone aware of any laws against this blatant sexism?"

The Liberal Party think tank, the Menzies Research Centre, has proposed that Australian mothers (not fathers) receive tax free $11,000 per year for five years after having a child. Lucy Sullivan, the author of the report, also recommended an additional government payout of "$4000 a year for primary school children and $6000 for high school children."

Women would have the option, through childbirth, of taking this government handout, so they can stay home. Men would have no such option.

Now that marriage is collapsing and men are being systematically removed from the family, men would be forced, through taxes, to support mothers, in most cases whom they've never even met.

Will Australian men be stupid enough to allow this to be done to them?
