Teenage Girl Takes Responsibility For Her Actions

radikal writes "The girl (whose name has been withheld) lied about her age, got drunk, and tattooed with a few questionable choices by a few 20-something men and women. When she sobered up, havoc ensued and resulted in the arrest of a 22-year old male for tattooing a minor.

To her credit, she told them her real age and also held herself responsible for being drunk and getting tattooed. You have to read it to truly appreciate it..."

Daily Breeze Prints NCFM-LA's Letter

Marc writes "The Daily Breeze printed NCFM-LA's letter
in response to the op ed they printed on veterans and paternity fraud.
I'm especially glad because it names NOW, DCSS, and Senators Sheila Kuehl and Hannah-Beth Jackson, all of whom have opposed and prolonged paternity fraud legislation all along.

Thank you Mensactivism.org and everyone who wrote letters! That's what helped get one printed!

Fathers' Rights Showdown in CA Supreme Court

Anon User Writes "Over two dozen feminist groups nationwide have joined together to help ensure that California custodial parents can move children hundreds or thousands of miles away from their noncustodial parents.

Against them all stands one loving father and his tenacious attorney.

Gary LaMusga has fought a seven-year battle to prevent his two boys, now aged 11 and 9, from being moved 2,400 miles away from him. The issue of move-aways is headed for a showdown in the California Supreme Court.

Family law attorney Garrett C. Dailey, the attorney representing Gary before the California Supreme Court, will discuss the case and the move-away issue on His Side with Glenn Sacks on Sunday, November 16 at 9 PM. To listen to the show archive, go to His Side"

Free Spiderman, Aka Dave Chick

Raymond Cuttill writes "From the Men's Hour Blog

Your last chance to sign the petition. It's overdue and only 41 signatures to go.



Yes, I'm sure a petition to the (London) Metropolitan Police is not going to sweep 30 years of father denigration away, but if we can't get 1000 signatures for this then the next time some feminist on TV makes a remark about men's/fathers groups being "2 or 3 men crying in their beers" then don't ask why men don't have any rights. You will know the answer!

More Anti-Male "Humor"

Boy Genteel writes "I've found another company that we need to "have a little talk with". I saw one of their calendars--the one called MEN! with the retro-stylings--in a bookstore. More of the same, 12 months of "Men are great...every woman should have a pet!" and "Men: half the population, quarter the brains." There are others like it on the website. I looked for a similar calendar degrading women--not that I'd buy one...I think that would be just as wrong--but it's telling that there isn't one about women. The name of the company is Ronnie Sellers Productions and their contact addresses are rsp@RSVP.com and mweiner@RSVP.com. Let's have a few words with them, how about it?"


And they say it's a best seller too! Ack!

Trials seen needed for anti-aging testosterone

CJ writes "There is evidence that testosterone replacement could combat declining strength, failing memory, and decreased sex drive in aging men. But unlike the multitude of contemporary studies on hormone replacement for women, testosterone as an anti-aging agent still has had no large-scale trial into the hormone therapy's true risks and benefits. The NIA plans to fund studies of testosterone replacement as recommended by Institue of Medicine panel who found that data was lacking in this area."

Commercial DNA Testing

They also have an online chat for people who want more information (didn't work when I tested it, however) and they will answer questions about procedure, etc by email.

"Men may see themselves in these comics"

mens_issues writes "Isn't this lovely. I checked out the uComics website today, and a page was displayed with the caption "Men may see themselves in these comics." The comics listed were "The Duplex, The Fusco Brothers, and Shoe." Needless to say, at least the first two comics portray men as oafish and boorish skirt chasers who are treated with contempt by women.

I don't know how long this link will lead to this wonderful feature, but for now it's here

Steve"
