'Contrary to some people’s misguided fears that a special court would circumvent accusers’ rights or eliminate the presumption of innocence, believing every victim’s testimony unquestionably, the goal isn’t to change the Criminal Code but to reform and improve both the way the laws are applied in Quebec and the process. The group has gone to great lengths to assuage those fears and made it clear during every appearance that the court would aim to centre both female and male victims’ needs without infringing on fundamental human rights.

'A California couple have launched an online tool to connect victims of workplace sexual misconduct to others harassed or abused by the same person—and they plan to fund it by anonymizing the data they collect and selling it to the accusers’ companies.

The just-launched website, ImWithThem.org, is the latest example of the intersection of the #MeToo movement and technology. It’s a nonprofit started by two people with business backgrounds who hope to help victims—but privacy experts say the tool raises red flags.

The website, founded by marketing strategist Laurie Girand and her husband, former Broadcom Corporation CEO Scott McGregor, allows victims of sexual harassment to submit confidential reports. The site then connects them to anyone else naming the same perpetrator.'

'Kara Dansky, a feminist lawyer and spokeswoman for Women's Liberation Front (WoLF), spoke against the so-called "Equality Act" at the Heritage Foundation on Monday, denouncing the transgender and gender identity movement as anti-women and anti-lesbian in particular. Her remarks echoed the London Pride March sign declaring that "Transactivism Erases Lesbians."

"This is a Men's Rights movement — this is really a Men's Rights movement," Dansky declared, calling for men to stand up for women and denounce the transgender movement.'

'What are the consequences of saying all men have toxic masculinity? Many women feel like they do not need a man anymore to raise a family, or for any other reason. The first consequence is single-family homes with no fathers present. Many people think this is a wonderful thing, and I commend all women who can raise children alone and work at the same time. What is the damage to the children though, with no male influence, particularly a strong male? Working with inmates for many years,

'One of Britain’s largest fire services requires white men to score higher on a recruitment test than women or minorities.

West Midlands Fire and Rescue Service (WMFRS) requires white men to score 70% on verbal and numerical tests, while women and black, Asian, or other ethnic men need to score only 60%. The change was implemented in September 2017, as part of an effort to increase the diversity of firefighters, but is only now being discovered by those outside the department.

Metro UK reports that a “senior source” within the department says the program costs £100,000 a year, including £2,500 a month for Facebook ads targeting only women to “minimize white men applying.”

This same source told the paper that WMFRS is the first brigade in the United Kingdom to make the change, which “directly discriminates against white men.”

'A bill introduced in both houses of the state legislature last week would make Title IX investigations at Missouri’s colleges and universities more like legal proceedings.

Senate Education Committee Chairman Gary Romine, R-Farmington, and House Higher Education Committee Chairman Dean Dohrman, R-La Monte, are sponsoring legislation requiring due process in Title IX investigations.

It would guarantee all students the right to representation by an attorney in a Title IX case and allow students to request a review of adherence to due process rules by the state’s Administrative Hearing Commission.

The commission oversees the application of state regulations and makes decisions “in cases involving a state agency and private citizen,” according to its website.'

'A feminist at Bloomberg welcomes the coming sexbot revolution, claiming that men should be the ones worried about becoming obsolete in the bedroom, not women.

"Advances in robotics and artificial intelligence have raised a dystopian concern for women: What if female robots become so realistic — and so adept at sex — that they render men incapable of engaging in real human relationship," writes Cathy O'Neil. "Actually, I think it’s the men who should be worried. It’s entirely possible that robots can outperform them."

Thanks to a new wave of feminism and its call for equality, it isn’t just toxic men who can kill, torture and surveil in the name of US militarism and empire, women can now do it too!

This past weekend was the third annual Women’s March, which is a protest originally triggered by Donald Trump’s defeat of Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election that encourages women across America to rise up against misogyny and patriarchy.

'The American Psychological Association has, in its words, issued "its first-ever guidelines for practice with men and boys." These guidelines "draw on more than 40 years of research showing that traditional masculinity is psychologically harmful and that socializing boys to suppress their emotions causes damage."

Three observations:

1) The last thing American males need today is less masculinity.

If you need proof, ask women who are looking for a husband whether the men they date exhibit too much masculinity, too little masculinity or just the right amount. I have talked to hundreds of women on my radio show (every week I have a "Male/Female Hour"), at speeches and in private who are dating to find a spouse. Not one has said men today are too masculine. Virtually all of them have said men today lack masculinity.

'Some students of human nature believe that, because our ancestors could only survive as a species human through a constant awareness of danger, we are endowed with an inherent need to be in a “state of fear” about something or other, even if the objective danger is neither existential nor widespread. It’s certainly true that political movements often encourage a state of fear to enhance their image of indispensability.

Feminism is the reigning orthodoxy of our era, and for feminists, men (almost invariably white heterosexual men) are a favourite target for fear mongering.  Short film/ads make excellent promotional vehicles for ideas and attitudes. I wrote about the now-infamous, feminism-inspired Gillette short film in these pages last week, a semi-humorous riff on the corporate cynicism behind its conception. But I knew my off-the-cuff riposte had not really addressed my deeper concerns about it, so the film continued to nag at me.'

'University of Texas at Austin student Sanika Nayak argued that men make gym facilities uncomfortable for women. As a result of this predicament, Nayak proposes that the University of Texas should divide the gym into protected sections, so that female students can feel more comfortable when they are exercising.

"The gym is always so crowded, and there’s always more guys there, especially in the free weights room,” one University of Texas student said in a comment for Nayak’s column. “A lot of times, girls can feel intimidated to go in there and grab some weights, as weightlifting is seen as a thing men do even though it’s important for women to do also.”

"Often women feel that if they go to the gym in leggings and a sports bra, people are just going to be looking at the way (they’re) dressed,” the student added. “That can be a really uncomfortable situation — when you’re just trying to work out but men around you could be focused on something else.”

'The ex-girlfriend of disgraced pol Hiram Monserrate took another stab at crying in Queens court Friday as jury deliberations began in her samurai-sword case.

It was the second teary day in court for Karla Barba, who is facing up to 25 years prison for a bloody 2016 fight with her fiance in the Jackson Heights home they share with their 4-year-old daughter, Mia.

Barba had burst into tears Thursday on the witness stand, where she claimed that “accidents happen.”
...
Her lawyer then began closing arguments, telling jurors again that the pair love each other and that Barba never meant to seriously injure Larrea when she lunged at him, decorative sword in hand, during a domestic dispute.

“She did not unsheathe the sword,” said lawyer Stacey Richman. “It came undone itself” as she swung it a second time.

“This was a crazy, unfortunate accident,” Richman told jurors. “But it wasn’t a crime.”

'A man was escorted out of a Colorado school board meeting Thursday for naming a teacher who called the wrong Covington Catholic boy part of the “Hitler Youth” on a now-deleted Twitter account.

Mountain Ridge Middle School seventh-grade history teacher Michelle Grissom allegedly named and posted a picture of Covington Catholic student Jay Jackson as one of the boys wearing Make America Great Again (MAGA) hats in Washington, D.C. Jackson was not in Washington with his peers, who were confronted by American Indian activist Nathan Phillips.

“I can’t imagine what drove a teacher to make comments online that were hateful and bigoted, slanderous and vilifying,” parent Aaron Johnson said Thursday. “Now we’re all left picking up the pieces she broke.”

Johnson elaborated to The Daily Caller News Foundation over the phone that Grissom’s actions makes the entire school community look bad.'
