Anonymous User writes "Wendy McElroy's column this week is about recent attacks on her from mainstream feminists, one of whom slandered her to a potential employer in an effort to harm her career. Wendy's latest column is here. We live in a sick world."

warble writes "By now everybody knows that radical feminists are trying to force admission of women into Augusta National. We hear of evil men excluding women and see radical feminist Burk claiming that women would never do such an evil and horrific act like excluding men and having a women’s only club. Well if that is true then why is there this women’s only group called the Women’s Policy, Inc. with a roster that includes only women? Were are the men? Were are the demands for men to be admitted into the leadership? Why is this group black listing Rep. Anne Northup for not being a member? Clearly, women have their own club and this one is shaping the male hate laws that we see flowing out of the federal government."

SJones writes "An article on divorce and the traditional conservative position ends with the statement that conservatives should support "joint physical custody." This is a great step in the right direction. The author even mentions vengeful ex-wives who lock fathers out of their children's lives. The article is here." The author argues that it is not divorce, but what happens to children after divorce that causes social problems. It's an interesting way of looking at this.

Tony submitted the following alert from the National Organization of Women:

"November 29 Is the Deadline for Title IX Messages. Write to the Commission on Opportunities in Athletics in support of the current policies implementing Title IX, which guarantees equality for girls and women in all federally-funded education programs. Take action!"

Tony writes, "The link at www.now.org requesting people to submit letters of support for Title IX. As we know Title IX enforcement has caused many sports programs to fold due to the "play it safe" quota enforcement many schools use to abide by the Title IX rules. This needs to change now.
It has a nice bit of sarcastic irony to use NOW website links against them on NOT supporting this issue."

Mark writes "This Vancouver Sun article details the charges against Rachel Marsden for criminally harassing her ex-boyfriend. If the name seems familiar to you, it's because she made herself famous for accusing a Simon Fraser University swim coach with sexually harassing her. An interesting note on this trial is the judge has prevented Rachel from defending herself publically to prevent the alleged victim from being 're-victimized.""

Mitchell A. Smith has been making repeated attempts to contact MSN Egreetings and have them remove their male bashing e-cards, but is getting the standard, "thank you for your opinion, it's been forwarded to the appropriate people" response. He would like to put the word out that he could use more support from other men's activists. Please contact them and let them know that we expect more from them. Mitchell would also like to hear from other activists who have tried to address this issue - his e-mail is ppmnow@hotmail.com.

Kingsley G. Morse Jr. writes "In a dramatic and long over due remedy, a court finally ordered a woman to pay damages for lying to her husband about who the father was. Bizarrely, men are often forced to reward liars with child support." All I can say is...I sure hope this helps to open the floodgates!

warble writes "I encourage everybody to read the stories of officers who have become victims of radical feminists. They are quite upset that they have to enforce bigoted male-hate laws. You can read the responses of two anonymous officers at this link: Police join with NCFM, LA in speaking out against male-hate laws!"

frank h writes "While reading this article, I came upon this link to something called "The Innocence Project," an organization that advocates the use of DNA evidence, post-conviction, to exonerate those wrongfully incarcerated. While there, I happened upon this section of the site, which includes a bar graph showing the factors leading to wrongful convictions, an analysis of the first 70 cases where wrongful convictions were reversed. If you sum the categories of False Witness Testimony, Prosecutorial Misconduct, and Police Misconduct, you see that these factors together overwhelm all others. Also, and maybe more important, I could not find ANY females among the exonerated. Given these two things, I submit to you that this is further evidence of the shoddy treatment of men by the court system."

Steve writes "I will host this week's MANN chat, Wednesday night
(11/20), starting at 9:30 PM Eastern Time, at the usual location. The topic
for this chat will be 'Why Are Men So Apathetic About Men's Issues?'  
The title says it all.  Let's figure out some answers at this week's 
MANN chat.  Invite a friend or two to join you!" Scott's Update: The chat server that QuickChat uses is apparently down, so unfortunately tonight's chat must be cancelled. We do intend to revisit this topic during the next on-line chat, though.

Maryland Judicial Equality Committee writes "The court documents of the infamous witch trails are on line. After a case review of the seventeen people who were executed for Abuse by Witchcraft, there was a consistent pattern by the court in it's methods of determining guilt. The court's pattern is disturbingly similar to today's Domestic Violence hearings. The details and links to the documents are on this page. Like then Governor William Phips of Mass., who will have the courage to challenge our current dysfunctional legal system?"

incredibletulkas writes "I have just threated Progressive.com with civil action in federal district court for its "Voodoo Doll" commercial, via the following warning:

This notice is a final warning of federal civil action. If Progressive.com does not immediately cease and desist from its rampant anti-male hate-messages, and such are not removed from public airwaves immediately, I will immediately file suit in federal court seeking maximum damages for willful and malicious conduct as well as abuse of public airwaves, citing precedent including previous violations of federal sanctions placed for similar previous case law pertaining to offensive messages attacking race or gender."

Marc Angelucci sent me a press release which can be downloaded here. It begins, "About 20 or more activists from the L.A. chapter of the National Coalition of Free Men and
others will hold a rally outside the L.A. County Board of Supervisors’ meeting on November 19, from 9am-12pm. We will also testify before the Supervisors during public comment (Item 76) to ask the County to create a Commission for Men that will address issues affecting men, such as child custody, paternity fraud, domestic violence, prostate cancer, prison rape and false accusations. The testimony can be viewed live from the County website at this link. We have also filed a lawsuit to that effect based on equal protection (Superior Ct. BC77370)." This is some very important news, and the press release has more details, so please take a look at it.

Wendy McElroy's most recent article exposes Martha Burk's contempt for men.

"According to PC feminism, the woman alone has the right of choice in carrying a pregnancy to term while the man bears legal responsibility for child support. Yet, in paying child support, he has no guarantee of joint custody or even visitation rights."

John Knouten writes "
The technology is being developed to implant electronic chips into sex offenders which will monitor their sexual arousal, thus signaling when they may present a criminal danger. The story is here. Civil liberties groups are horrified."
