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.

jenk writes "From Newsday...
"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.

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?

crescentluna writes "This is the opposition. This is their research. If women use violence against their male partners, they are in need of understanding. We need to examine the cultural attitudes that shape it. Those cultural attitudes are that men abuse to maintain power, whereas women aren't really abusers. Here's

Updated! On Wednesday, the second meeting of the NH Commission on the Status of Men was held in Concord, NH. We had the room packed and two local TV crews filmed the event. NH Public Television aired a half-hour segment with footage from the meeting on their NH Outlook program. You can view streaming video (RealPlayer) of the program at this link. Interviewed on the program included commission chair Gerry Boyle, Rep. David Bickford (who sponsored the men's commission legislation), and Mike Geanoulis, president of the NH chapter of NCFC.

Matt writes "Entertaining but predictable article
on so-called "catfighting" in DC area bars and pubs. Written by one of the cats herself! Notice she tries to shift the blame for her and her fellow "catfighters" onto men in more than a few places. So much for adults taking responsibility for their actions. Sounds like a chance for a letter or two to the editors..."

radikal writes "I saw this in a employee rant forum. It seemed appropriate to men's issues in the sense of old school vs. modern family structure. This woman is "busy and bored" at her job and wishes that she could be a "stay at home wife and mother". She's in her early thirties now. She also adds that "When you even mention this to people, even other women, they look at you like you're from another planet..." I'm stealing your experience! Go here and read for yourself."
What was it feminists said about men not wanting to live in the 21st century again?

Anonymous User writes "The Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children adds that partner violence by men is the greatest single source of injury to women requiring emergency treatment. Now MA intends to build a center that will place victims of domestic violence under one roof with police, prosecutors, and advocates. This is very scary and brings MA one step closer to a complete gender based Marxist society - considering the criteria for evidential standards for DV have already been completely erased. I am a victim of the false DV allegations, and I could not have conceived in my worst nightmare that the judicial system in MA could become more biased than it already is. Yet a new Parthenon of misandry is getting built and the hypocrites building it are using sexual assault on children as the Trojan Horse for public support to gain funding for their underhand methods to further obliterate the rights of men/fathers. Once again, the rights of men and consideration for male victims have been completely left out of the agenda. Pleae help anyway you can. Here's the
