What with our buddy, Hootie at Augusta National, standing up to the lunatic fembots, and now men like Vijay Singh and Nick Price daring to forthrightly speak the truth, I'm becoming quite the fan of golfers, if not the sport itself. This Sports Illustrated article reports on the ploy of allowing the Swedish woman, Annika Sorenstam, to play in the PGA's Colonial next week.

Women have the LPGA. By letting a woman play in a PGA tournament, the sports powers-that-be nudge out a man, who would otherwise have gotten to play (a man who might well clean the links with Sorenstam).

Maybe it's time to eliminate special teams and leagues for women. Then again, maybe we should create separate teams and leagues for every special interest group that can't measure up. If I were in college, I wouldn't make the basketball team because I am not tall enough and I'm no longer as fast and agile as I once was. Maybe there should be a separate basketball league for people over 40, who are within 4 inches of average height (and yet another league for those who are shorter). The league should receive equal government funding, of course, and the public should be guilt tripped into attending games.

On the other hand, maybe there should be one team per sport per school, and the best men and women should get to be on the team.

Mangesh writes "According to the latest figures released by the Indian government, the proportion of women holding a job in the organized sector in India has gone up from 15 % to 18.5 % in the last five years. In India, the organized sector accounts for only 7% of the total workforce, and a job in this sector is a passport to prosperity. What is worrying is that male employment in this sector actually declined by 1.3 million and female employment increased by 0.4 million. This data explodes the feminist perpetrated myth of `feminization of poverty'. The following link is to the story in the English language daily `The Economic Times'.

MrDave writes "Time magazine - back in 1994! - wrote: 'the overt man bashing of recent years has now refined itself into a certain atmospheric snideness – has settled down to a vague male aversion, as if masculinity were a bad smell in the room.'

Here's an excellent essay by our ally Wendy McElroy. It's a call for an end to male-bashing, to anti-male hatred, really. And it's a great read.

radikal writes "Bridget Harrison of the New York Post, compares the movies The Real Cancun and Down With Love to real life tension over casual sex between men and women. Post-feminists never had it so angsty!

It's big post time, so brace yourselves: H. Vincent writes "This story was very big in canada
An alderwoman from Alberta went on a trip to the States with some other councillors and went missing. She turned up in a Las Vegas hotel and "told Las Vegas police she had been kidnapped and sexually assaulted but refused a medical examination and wouldn't offer police any details." People thought she was dead and the police searched for her at the taxpayer's expense. It turns out she just had a fling and got caught so she told the usual lies. She has been charged but it will be interesting to so how "accountable" she will be held. One other thing is that she has children. For making them think that their mom had been kidnapped and maybe killed she should be punished. That is very cruel abuse to put a child through. I wish they would prevent her from contacting them." Andrew74 writes "Here is a story about a Lethbridge alderman who had a whole city fooled. She went missing and when found she claimed to have been raped and kidnapped. Under further investigation police found that she had made up the whole story and instead had run off with a married man. She cried lots after being caught in her lies and we should all feel sorry for her hairaising ordeal. She shouldn't resign from her post as alderman and just take leave so she can get better after all she went through. At least at the end some Lethbridge folk use there brains and see her for the horrible manipulator and embarresment she is. I'm unsure of how long the story will be here so read it while you can." Garth writes "Darlene Heatherington, a Lethbridge, Alberta alderwoman, vanished recently, turning up later in Las Vegas. She had a dramatic tale of abduction and rape. Under police questioning, however, her story fell to pieces, and she now claims she got tired of her life and ran off with a married man for a chance at a new life. This second story has yet to be substantiated. The police are quite unhappy with her, but there is no indication yet that she will face charges."

RPB659 writes "Here's a link to a story about a woman who escaped from jail, kidnapped her 3-year old kid, and held a gun to her own child's head when confronted by police. Of course it had to have been those evil men that made her do it..." {sarcasm} Yeah, and it was in the best interests of the child too. {/sarcasm}

frank h writes "Just another case of Domestic Abuse, by a woman against a man, of course."

CJ writes "A new “Study” indicates woman get biased treatment from unemployment services, yet the study states that women leave work for different reasons than men. This is a non- empirical study, it compares different sociological data with the assumption that women are short-changed somehow. The underlying premise of this study is to offer women more options for unemployment services than men. In some states women (only) have provisions that permit them to quit their jobs because of domestic violence to collect unemployment insurance. With todays broadly defined standards of "abuse" (because of relentless one-sided advocacy) and with the continual addition of incentives (divorce, custody, property, benefits...) for one gender only to claim that they were abused, inevitably more and more women will play the "abuse card" for payouts, and the feminist DV industry becomes a self-fulfilling anti-male reality.

locksley2k writes "Eighteen High School baseball players from my hometown of Massapequa, NY were suspended from school and thrown off the team for visiting a strip joint while they had official unsupervised "free" time during the attendence of a baseball camp in FL. while on Spring Break. The coach and assistant coach were fired although they had no knowledge of what the players were up to. They were supossed to be at the beach. All the players were 17 or 18 years old.

As far as I'm concerened this is a good example of the ill conceived and dangerous concept of ZERO TOLERANCE that appears to have infected our schools on a national level. Zero Tolerance (ZT) has caused the suspention of first graders for sexual harrasment, put tens of thousands of students on Ritalin and forced unnatural and superficial behavior upon a whole generation of minors,mostly boys.
It appears to me that ZT is attempting to convolute children into a short sighted concept of the perfect social member while destroying whom they really are. They are saying to the children "We are going to remove what makes you you because it may offend someone. If you have excess energy we will drug you (I'm not refering to ADD but kids who just fidget), if you stomp in a puddle we will arrest you, if you act like a healthy teenager we will severely punish you, if you are 6 years old we will still treat you like a pervert without regard to the fact that you innocently do not understand.

I wonder if the ball players had visited a gay strip joint they would have been so radically punished.
I believe they wouldn't have been, a message like that may offend someone."

Dan Lynch writes "Here is a link to a great commentary site on 1984. It's one of the better ones I have seen. It not only shows how Orwell criticizes communism and socialism, it shows how other giant statist organizations are destructive to society. Like the all powerful churches, monarchy's or just bureaucracy in general, that way we won't have to make this about left/right wing politics. It can be about how the state can get out of control when it seeks control. (But if you want to point out why you think its more rightest or leftist I don't want to stop you, but I am hoping that *we* as 'men's activists' can look at it objectively in concern to our common ground here). Its amazing how we can line up the similarities from Orwell's story to our modern day. One being how "TACK BACK THE NIGHT" events are almost identical to the "HATE WEEK" rallies in the book, which use total lies and biaism to maintain that 2 + 2 = 5 (Which is why I think 'Feminism' is 'Totaltarian' and not a true 'Liberal' ideal). They have released the DVD back in April and I am hoping to make it popular again as it becomes classic next year. I think that Orwell's work could be a great basis for language for us all (and to many it already is I realize) to understand the concepts. One being "Some Animals are more Equal than others" from 'Animal Farm' or the 'Doublethink' or 'Newspeak' from 1984 etc..."

Freebird writes "A judge actually getting punished for condoning the statutory rape of a 13 year old boy by his former teacher. ""Gaeta said he didn't see the harm in the sexual encounters. "It's just something between two people that clicked beyond the teacher-student relationship," he said." Yeah, sure judge. Would that pervert - which is exactly what he is - say the same if a male teacher had done the same with a female student? We all know the answer to that one. Here is the article

Even better is the fact that people actually got UPSET about this judge's leniency with the teacher. Society is, although slowly, coming around to the fact that women who have sex with little boys are indeed sexual predators, and should be treated as such."
