Sex as a Weapon

This story tells us how women are getting jobs in Japan. I wonder if the Playboy article tells us how men are scammed here in America.

New Miller Lite Ad promotes Male D.V.

chicago joe writes "I just read in the local paper that Miller Brewing Co. is going to respond to their controversial Lite ad (with the two women fighting, and their clothes coming off) by creating two female friendly versions. Both spots feature "women fantasies", and will begin airing during the NCAA Tournaments. The first one is going to feature two men who are about to scuffle - their clothes flying off - before they realize they are lovers, not fighters. However, the second spot will feature women who've dated cheating boyfriends. They fantisize about various physically violent ways to get back at them. They include a piano crushing one, a golf shot into the groin of another, and lighting striking another.
Noting that alcohol is an unequivical co-factor in most assualts and most domestic violence situations, one must question the wisdom of this move. But I'm sure if the people at Miller Brewing Co. have not realized their foolish mistake, the boys at Mensactivism will let them know!
Side Note: Thanks to Jeffery Leving, the well known father rights attorney in Chicago and Rep. William Delgado (D-Chicago), the Illinios House Judiciary Committee has unanimously approved the states first paternity fraud bill. It now goes to the House for a final vote. I'll keep everybody posted."

We Must Seek The Truth

This fact finding essay puts legislators on the spot. The total disregard for the evidence in front of their eyes. The refusel to look at the complexities of domestic violence. The facts that will show that the patriarchy is not the reason for domestic violence. As more and more people begin to wake up to the falsehoods of the 'Battered Women's Industry'.

Sacks Blasts Feminist 'Women do the World's work"

Tatis writes "In Sacks' newest column, "Men, Women and Work" he writes:

"One of the staple feminist claims heard every March during International Women's Day and Women's History Month is that 'women do the work of the world'... negative references to men and housework litter our popular culture. 'The Myth of Male Housework: For Women, Toil Looms From Sun to Sun' was a headline in one major publication, over a cartoon depicting a woman juggling (and struggling) with a baby, a roasted turkey, and a house pet, while her husband watches TV and "juggles" his beer and his potato chips...

...[However] the U.N. report upon which most claims of 'women work more' are based was deeply flawed...""

Addressing Gender disparity in the workforce

ahhkaboom writes "Men still only go to make up 20% of the workforce in most offices across the UK and unemployment has always been largely a male problem. Manbalance intends to target that disproportion.

Men's Health Week to become international

rage writes "As some of you may already know, men's health week will become international for the first time in 2003. Countries included : USA, England, Scotland, Wales and Australia. Please make sure that all masculist sites and people you know are informed of that. That event must become known on a large scale.

Here is a link that provides the reader with useful information about this topic.

Men's Health.

Obviously, men's health is perhaps the only one masculist subject that draws public attention, and I think we can be confident for the coming decades as far as men's health is concerned."

Radical feminist publicly calls for male gendercid

Anonymous User writes "This article by Dr. Helen Caldecott is the most disgusting article I have ever read and the mainstream is taking it seriously. This woman is pissed off becaues an editor at Marvel did not want to run her anti-male rant so she developed this "Code Pink" speech. Be warned that frontpagemag.com is really busy because of this article so you may not be able to see the page on the first try. Here is a quote from the aritcle. ""I mean how dare, HOW DARE these men think they can do this. WHO DO THEY FLAMING WELL THINK THEY ARE? They are truly pathological and they should all be removed, as I have said, for the public health of the people of the planet. Now 53% of us are women. We’ve had the majority and we’ve been absolute wimps. And it’s time we smacked their bottoms, removed them and we took over. I’m not just joking --this isn’t funny. I am deadly serious.""

Domestic Violence Broadcasts

Dave writes "Gentelemen,

PBS will broadcast via most of their stations Tuesday and Wednesday evenings (18 and 19 March) programs on domestic violence. We should hope that these are done looking at both sides of the matter. Let us watch these shows and judge them for what they are. IF, they are biased against men we need to be prepared to shower them with our thoughts and opinions. Check out their web site at: http://www.pbs.org/previews/DomesticViolence/"

Sacks Writes about the 'Damned of the Earth'--Iraq

In his latest column,"Iraqi Draftees: We Should Care about Their Boys, Too," mens issues columnist Glenn Sacks writes "Today the young Iraqi male is the damned of the earth. Drafted by force at 18 or younger...this generation of young Iraqi men can see nothing but pain and death both in front of it and behind it....By decrying the death of 'innocent' civilians, those on both sides of the war debate backhandedly ascribe guilt to these young draftees. Yet if they are not innocent victims of this war, who is?" The article can be seen at "Iraqi Draftees: We Should Care about Their Boys, Too."

Men's health

Mangesh writes "Finally, the problem of male suicide has got some attention here in India. During the last year, in the city of Pune, there were 496 reported cases of suicide out of which 344 (70%)were cases of male suicide. These statistics are based on the analysis done by an Assistant Commissioner of Pune Police. Dr. Ulhas Luktuke, a leading mental health professional based in Pune says that the higher rates of male suicide are due to excessive societal expectations from men and the frustration that it leads to. The link is the story in the Mararthi language newspaper Sakal (15th March, 2003, Pune edition).

complaints on dv

gistmason writes "For there is a right in this state for non warrrented arrests, per states attorney office, unknown of statue for non warrented arrests of youngmen that are innocent of crime. But women should be believed since they are the weaker sex. True crime is believable? A question that is probably asked by youngmen perhaps who can't find a way to prove innocence. Is there control in the judicial system, if so
where is the line drawn for nonviolent so called crime? Maybe there should be a new law of nonviolent domestic situations to be filed for men so they can have a chance to prove they were the ones victomized
and to be heard in certain cases. Why? Think about being in reverse mode while driving."

An Excellent Response To A Critical Woman

Freebird writes "Devvy Kidd blasts American men as unchivalrous and lazy in this article: http://www.newswithviews.com/news_worthy/news_wort hy.htm and gets a response which echoes a lot of the feelings of the men seen on this board, including mine: http://home.iprimus.com.au/grahamstrachan/reply_to _devvy.htm

Until more alleged "non-feminist" women think about what their silence tells both men and feminists alike, the chasm between the genders will widen. Perhaps the fact that more and more men are turning away from women will prod them to finally speak up."
