What the word 'Feminism' means to you?
What have feminist ideas meant to you in your life - has this changed over the years?
Your personal stories?
What are feminism's successes and failures?
What's the future for feminism? In the second article feminists are crowing about being terrorists. These days rather than being funded through drugs they use your taxes to destroy you.

Daily Nation and Telegraph.uk have uncovered a story in which they reveal...
"Human rights activists have encouraged Kenyan prostitutes to submit fake rape claims against British soldiers"
"They told me that if I said I was raped by British soldiers and showed them my baby then I would get three million shillings [£30,000]," Miss Muguri said. "I would take two million and they would take one."
"I know none of them was raped. The fathers were either British soldiers or tourists or white Kenyan citizens. If a child looked partly Indian we would tell them to say they were raped by Gurkhas."
"Another prostitute, Rose, who has two mixed-race children as a result of liaisons with Italian tourists at the coast, refused to say she was raped, despite attempts by activists to persuade her."
"However, lawyer Martyn Day maintains that most of the claims are genuine and is set to continue with the legal action on behalf of several hundred Samburu and Maasai women."
Anyone want to make some money by claiming Martyn Day raped you?

It's looking hopeful, acording to this story it looks like we might have several choices before long. And with minimal side effects too. Anybody else got the feeling this invention might be like using a flamethrower on a planet full of gunpowder?

The Afghan News Network's title to this story says it all, albeit inadvertantly.
"The draft constitution guarantees women at least one seat from each of the 32 provinces on the wholesi jirga, the national parliament, and a minimum of 25 seats in the mushran jirga, the senate, said Fatima Gailani, a member of the Constitutional Review Commission. The total number of seats in each assembly has not yet been decided. "
"The draft document says the government must provide women with education and health care not only equal to men, but that additional provisions must be written to care for pregnant women and educate widows whose husbands were killed during the last two decades of war."
Amazing how people can miss the irony.

CNN.com tells us that...
"Tarantino said Kill Bill was a feminist statement, "a film about girl power."
"Tarantino said that over 380 litres of fake blood had been used for the movie, and described how one fight scene, in which Thurman dismembers 88 opponents with a Japanese sword, took over eight weeks to shoot."

The Cape Cod Times is one of many papers telling us that...
"The House voted overwhelmingly yesterday to ban what opponents call "partial-birth abortion," and the Senate is expected to agree today, sending the measure to President Bush, who says he will sign it into law"

mens_issues writes "There is a play showing in Boulder (where else?) called "The male intellect: an oxymoron?" by Robert Dubac. The "protagonist" of this stupid play is a man named Bobby who supposedly can't figure women out. The explanation then goes into the worn out cliche about him being a chauvinist "like most guys," as well as the fact that the five men who have taught him the most about women are even bigger "chauvinists."

Time served is sufficient, but judge orders Krystal Coombs to get psychological help

"Krystal Coombs will not go to prison for the beating
death of her baby daughter a crime she continues to deny.
Court of
Queen's
Bench Justice Joanne Veit said Tuesday the 20-year-old woman deserves a
four-year sentence for manslaughter but has already served the
equivalent of
that time in custody awaiting the outcome of her trial.
Veit
sentenced
Coombs to one day in jail, which she technically served Tuesday in
court, as
well as three years' probation with psychological treatment and
addictions
counselling.
She also ordered Coombs to notify her probation
officer if
she becomes pregnant again

Jen writes "Well, here is something, as the mother of sons, I knew for a long time and never realized was universally true-boys are much easier to have around than girls. Apparently easier on marraiges as well.This story
claims that world wide, marraiges with sons fare better than those with daughters, and the more the better. Very interesting read. I did find the piece at first seemed to be blaming boys, but later down the girls get the same treatment, so I don't think it was really angled one way or the other."

mens_issues writes "The Non Sequitur comic strip for 9/26 (by Wiley Miller) features a
father on a date with a vindictive woman who quotes the worn out
cliche about men and toilet seats before dumping a wine glass on his
head. It ends with his daughter's horse "Lucy" asking why her dad
hadn't remarried. The daughter, Danae, replies that he's
overqualified. This cartoonist is good! Here is a link to the comic strip (choose the 9/26 episode)"

CJ writes "Here is an article that touches many deep issues for men. The article tries to help promote a better understanding of men and reverse what seems to be a dangerous assumption born of the past 40 years of radical femininism that men have simply become redundant, but falls short as it argues that it is men that ultimately must live up to the expectations or the newly fabricated "independant women"

Anon user writes "The Clara Harris "murder by Mercedes" case--wherein a Texas woman garnered widespread sympathy after killing her husband as his daughter begged her not to kill her father--has been a textbook example of our society's noxious mix of anti-male feminism and anti-male male chivalry. Incredibly, last week the murderess was granted joint custody of her twin five year-old boys.
Sunday on His Side, Glenn discussed the Harris case with the private detective who knows it best--Bobbi Bacha of Blue Moon Investigations, the agency which Clara hired to spy on her husband. To listen to the show, go to His Side"

Matt writes "Speaks for itself" Yeah it does, but this speaks even more "but if you're looking for the strongest growth numbers it's probably through divorce"" I hope that didn't comprimise your gag reflex too much. Eugh....
