'Of 2,325 U.S. adults surveyed, 10 per cent of men and seven per cent of women met the clinical cut-off point for “compulsive sexual behaviour disorder,” a newly named category of sexual pathology that involves a persistent inability to control intense, repetitive urges and feelings, resulting in repetitive sexual behaviour “that causes marked distress or social impairment.”

Until now, rough estimates pegged the condition’s prevalence at somewhere between one and six per cent of the population, with men assumed to be between two and five times more likely to suffer from the disorder than women.

'Mothers often complain about getting the short end of the stick in divorce cases involving child custody, but so do many fathers.

For parents who are trying to juggle shared custody, child support payments and their careers — finding the right life-balance can seem impossible.

Sometimes disagreements escalate into messy legal battles that require judges, attorneys and therapists to step in and help.

In her CNN Original Series, "This is Life," Lisa Ling spoke with fathers who feel the system has let them down.

One is a divorced father who has spent time in jail because he said he couldn't pay his court-ordered child support.'

'Following the tragic shooting at the Borderline Bar in Thousand Oaks this week, where 12 people were shot dead, "Good Morning America" aired an interview with three young women who made it out alive. As they detailed their harrowing tale, they couldn’t help but praise the men, complete strangers to them, who had also been at the bar and heroically shielded them from the shooter.

This young woman’s statement is remarkable: “There were multiple men that got on their knees and pretty much blocked all of us ... ready to take a bullet for any single one of us,” she says, in awe.'

'Which leads me to the issue at hand. America needs more good men. America needs fathers to be present and there. America needs men to work, earn, protect and provide for their families. America needs men to treat women and children with a higher regard than society seems to currently favor. American needs fathers to be an example of true manhood and success.

I know it’s not politically correct to say this — but it seems like a major problem with violence, abuse, mass shootings and attacks is fatherlessness.

'Should men and women pay different tax rates?

The chair of the Senate’s economics legislation committee, Liberal senator Jane Hume, posed the question this week during a public hearing on the government’s income tax plan.

The question was asked in jest to some tax experts, to have a little dig at Labor, because Labor had started drawing attention to the fact that the government’s proposed $143bn tax cuts would benefit men more than women at a ratio of almost two to one.
...
Stewart told the committee this week she was not advocating the introduction a two-tiered gender-based tax system in Australia, but she said the paper by Alesina and Ichino did make an important point about how tax systems affected men and women differently.

“The point being made by that research was precisely the point about workforce supply, and secondary workers being more [sensitive to tax],” she said.'

'The male colleague of a female teacher who allegedly grabbed him by the testicles after ripping open his shirt at a parent-teacher evening has branded her a 'narcissist'.

Helen Evans, 44, left her colleague feeling 'intimidated and extremely upset' when she allegedly groped him at Llanishen Fach School, Cardiff, in May 2013.

The man gave up teaching shortly after the alleged 'sexually motivated' attack - and said Miss Evans' behaviour was the main reason.

She did not deny the incident happened and was reported to police - but the Crown Prosecution Service decided not to take the case any further.'

'"It turns out that this is a ‘manel’ (all-male panel), which means that I would withdraw,” Dr. Chris Mackie, the medical officer of health at the Middlesex-London Health Unit, wrote on Twitter Monday in response to a tweet publicizing his scheduled appearance.
...
Mackie himself announced the issue as resolved on Twitter Tuesday, writing that, after speaking to organizers, the “manel issue” had been addressed and that he was impressed with the level of understanding organizers showed of the issue.

“I think it is an important issue to be raised because we don’t get the best panels when we don’t seek out expert women,” he said to The Free Press.'

'The National Trust has come under fire for covering up artwork featuring men inside a Northumberland country house hosting an installation highlighting the lives of 19th century women.

Busts and paintings depicting male subjects were draped in sheets at Cragside, near Rothbury, formerly the home of Victorian industrialist Lord William Armstrong, as part of an art project called the Great Cragside Cover-up.

The installation, the work of Newcastle artist Kate Stobbart and art PhD students Rob Blazey and Harriet Sutcliffe, was intended to focus on the life of his wife, Lady Margaret Armstrong, as well as other female relatives and women employed at the house.

Sutcliffe said before the opening that “by concealing some of the male objects and artefacts within the house, it might shift the lens slightly so these women would have the space for three weeks to shine”.'

'The Girl Scouts are suing the Boy Scouts, saying the organization’s inclusive rebranding effort has caused all sorts of consumer confusion from mistaken enrollment in the Boy Scouts to misinformation about a merge of the two groups.

Tuesday’s trademark infringement lawsuit is an attempt to clear up the uncertainty, said the Girl Scouts of the United States of America.

The Manhattan federal case noted the two separate youth organizations have long coexisted.

But problems arose when “core gender distinction” was altered by the Boy Scouts of America, which announced in October 2017 it would open its doors to girls beginning in 2019.'

'Social media, particularly Twitter, has been awash with reports that Nigeria has the second highest rate of paternity fraud in the world, with Jamaica leading on the list. But how true is this?

Paternity fraud is a deeply problematic issue in Nigeria as fathers have been raising children that are not theirs. It is something that can frighten you, but again, that's the reality prevailing. But just how serious is it?

"The implications of paternity fraud are major, disrupting relationships, homes, and marriages.  Victims of this crime – father or child, stands the risk of depression, and mental health problems. A child victim is more likely to have self esteem issues and anxiety.

'It's time for a revolution. At the polls, and in the bedroom. And in our understanding of who women are, sexually and otherwise. Given the tight interweaving of economic and political power with sexual entitlement, female sexual autonomy has never been more urgent, and women's sexual pleasure has never been more political. Let's consider what it might mean to go on a sex strike of sorts -- to get what we want, rather than give what we think we owe others.

'Following a complaint to the U.S. Department of Education, Tulane University may soon allow men to participate in programs of the Newcomb College Institute, an organization that administers scholarships and provides clubs and activities for women in order to promote feminist issues.

The complaint was made to the department's Office of Civil Rights in August. Tulane officials said the complaint specifically said Newcomb Institute "scholarships for women are discriminatory against men.”

The institute is an umbrella organization that runs programs formerly operated by H. Sophie Newcomb Memorial College, a historic women's college that was closed when Tulane combined its undergraduate colleges in 2006.

The institute oversees Newcomb College's former endowment, valued at approximately $40 million, by administering money to support female students’ research, advocate for a gender-integrated curriculum and promote student organizations for women.

'One of Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh’s accusers admitted this week that she made up her lurid tale of a backseat car rape, saying it “was a tactic” to try to derail the judge’s confirmation to the Supreme Court.

Sen. Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Judiciary Committee revealed the fraud in a letter to the FBI and Justice Department Friday, asking them to prosecute Judy Munro-Leighton for lying to and obstructing Congress.
...
Mr. Grassley’s investigators tried to reach her for a month but were unsuccessful until this week, when they spoke to her by phone and she confessed that she was not the original Jane Doe, and “did that as a way to grab attention.”

She admitted to the false allegation, and said she has actually never met Justice Kavanaugh.

“I was angry, and I sent it out,” she told investigators.
