New Title IX Rules Are Out. Here’s What You Need to Know

Article here. Excerpt:

'After several delays, the Biden administration finally released its final rule overhauling Title IX this morning, kicking off what will likely be a frantic few months as colleges race to update their policies in time for the coming academic year. Colleges and universities have until Aug. 1 to comply.

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 protects students in all levels of education from sex-based discrimination. The new regulations, which appear similar to what was proposed in June 2022, significantly alter how colleges and universities respond to reports of sexual harassment and assault and expand protections for LGBTQ+ and pregnant students.

'Oracle of Wall Street' who predicted 2008 financial crash says rise in young, sexless men living with their parents will cause house prices to plunge 30%

Article here. Of all the misandrist claptrap... Excerpt:

'A financial analyst nicknamed the 'Oracle of Wall Street' has said a 'growing crisis of the young American male' will cause house prices to fall as much as 30 percent.

Meredith Whitney, who earned the title after predicting the financial crisis of 2007 - 2008, suggested young men increasingly living with their parents and disinterested in starting families will drastically reduce housing demand.

The trend of men refusing to settle in turn means more women are remaining single into later life, leaving them without the income or need for big family homes.

But it comes as baby boomers start to downsize, meaning there will be a surplus of available properties. Much of the last decade's gains in home values have been driven by high demand and low supply - a phenomenon, Whitney says, is reversing.

To explain the rise in men living at home, she pointed to the increasing prevalence of video games, starting in the mid-2000s.'

Mom who admitted to smothering toddler while high on meth walks free thanks to controversial judge

Article here. Excerpt:

'An Indianapolis mother who admitted to fatally smothering her baby while high on meth became overwhelmed and hid her face in her hands when a controversial judge allowed her to walk free.

Dacia Lacey, 32, was found not guilty of neglect of a dependent resulting in the 2022 death of her daughter, Alona, by Judge Mark Stoner, who is already facing calls to resign after giving a mentally ill man who fatally shot a police officer a sentence of time served, WTHR reported.

The mom was cleared even though the judge told her it was “a case that happens when you’re a bad parent. “

“There are some things you can never do. You can never have sole possession of your children and go out and use drugs,” Stoner said.

“You’re not innocent, but you’re not guilty of what the state has charged you with.”

Trevor Bauer Guilty Of Being An Idiot, Victim Of His Own Stupid Decisions

Article here. Excerpt:

'Trevor Bauer is more of a cautionary tale of what foolish sexual decisions lead to than he is an innocent lily-white victim.

The embattled former Dodgers pitcher has been fighting to get back to the MLB ever since being placed on leave and ultimately suspended after sexual abuse allegations surfaced.

The initial allegations were brought by a woman named Lindsey Hill, who alleged at the time that Bauer abused her in rough fashion during a sexual encounter. Hill's claims of abuse are now widely-viewed as false and debunked, and the two settled a lawsuit that resulted in Bauer paying nothing. A phone call was later released where Hill claimed to be in significant pain, and Bauer acknowledged he was asked to hit her, according to the New York Post.

What really happened the night of the alleged sexual encounter will likely never be known, but there's certainly no proof that the public is aware of to suggest Bauer did anything to break the law. That's the reality of the situation.

A woman who accused Trevor Bauer of sex assault is now charged with defrauding the ex-MLB player

Article here. Excerpt:

'An Arizona woman who accused former major league pitcher Trevor Bauer of sexual assault has been charged with defrauding the baseball player.

An indictment unsealed Monday in Maricopa County Superior Court charges the woman with fraud and theft by extortion, both felonies, but doesn’t provide specific details about the alleged crimes. It says Bauer and one other person were defrauded in a scheme that potentially spanned several years.

The Associated Press does not typically identify people who say they have been victims of sexual assault unless they come forward publicly.

The woman sued Bauer in December 2022, accusing him of rape two years earlier that she said resulted in pregnancy in late 2020.'

Sexual equality has been a disaster for men – especially when it comes to dating

Article here. Excerpt:

'Men are in crisis. So found Danny Dyer in How to Be a Man, a Channel 4 documentary about modern masculinity (part two is on tomorrow night). And, he discovered, it’s young men who are struggling most of all. They complain of being endlessly lectured about the evils of “toxic masculinity”; say they’re victims of “misandry” (anti-male prejudice); and find themselves being led astray by unsuitable online role models such as Andrew Tate.

No doubt there’s some truth in what they say. Frankly, though, I think there’s a much bigger reason why so many young men today feel confused, lonely and inadequate. But we don’t like to talk about it, because it’s just a tiny bit awkward.

Still, let’s be honest for once and say it. The rise of sexual equality over the past 50-plus years has been great for women. But it’s been a disaster for men. Especially in the field of dating.

Gap between Caitlin Clark's WNBA salary and her male counterparts' draws outrage

Article here. Excerpt:

'College basketball superstar Caitlin Clark is set to soar to new heights in the WNBA — but her rookie contract means she will pocket a fraction of the millions her male counterparts have made on the court.

Under the 2024 WNBA rookie scale for the No. 1-4 draft picks, she'll earn a base salary of $76,535 for her first year, $78,066 the second year and $85,873 the third, with a fourth-year option of $97,582.

Despite Clark’s unprecedented star power, her salary is a sliver of the eye-popping amount male athletes make in the NBA.

WNBA draft picks No. 2-4 — Stanford’s Cameron Brink, who went to the Los Angeles Sparks, South Carolina’s Kamilla Cardoso, with the Chicago Sky, and Tennessee’s Rickea Jackson, also with the Sparks — will make the same pay as Clark.

1984 and Julia: Re-writing books and history

Article here. Check back in 300 (or fewer) years. Shakespeare will have been a lesbian and nothing attributable to him (her) will be recognizable by a contemporary scholar. Excerpt:

'Julia also belongs to the recent tradition of feminist retellings—in this case, of a work often criticized for its treatment of women. Newman herself has told the Telegraph that she once “absolutely idolized” Orwell but later came to see his fiction, and especially Nineteen Eighty-four, as steeped in “hatred of women [that] is really extreme.” That’s debatable: Some argue that Orwell’s feminist critics wrongly conflate protagonist Winston Smith’s hostility toward women (explicitly acknowledged in the book and clearly shown to be rooted in totalitarianism’s monstrous warping of human relations) with Orwell’s own attitude.

Nebraska teacher, 45, caught naked in car with teen is married to a Harvard-educated government official

Article here. Excerpt:

'The Nebraska substitute teacher caught naked in a car with a teenage student is a mom married to a Harvard-educated, high-ranking federal government employee, according to records and social media accounts.

Erin Ward, 45, allegedly confessed to having sex with the 17-year-old boy — a student at Burke High School where she worked — in the back of the car and was charged with felony sexual abuse by a school employee.

By sleeping with the teen, Ward is also accused of cheating on her husband, a director at the US Department of Defense — with whom she shares three kids, according to social media posts shared by the Gretna couple.

Erin Ward was arrested early Saturday when Douglas County sheriff’s deputies found her allegedly fooling around with the teenage boy in the car she shared with her husband.

The panicked teen hurried to the driver’s seat and sped off in the vehicle but crashed two blocks later — at which point he got out and fled on foot.

The law protects everyone from discrimination, even employees who have historically been entrenched in the majority, such as white men.

They are also entitled to protection under any laws that were intended to assure equal treatment for women and racial minorities. Whether or not you have a lawsuit based on your particular circumstance is a question for a lawyer.'

Feminist now calls for violent men to act in face of Middle East troubles

'One of the good things about being a citizen of the West is that, since the last world war ended in 1945, most men’s survival has not been imperilled by the need to go and fight in massive wars.

We do not have to kiss goodbye to tens or hundreds of thousands of beloved sons, friends, fathers or brothers. We have a professional army, are accustomed to relatively small casualty numbers when that army does go into combat, and, bar periodic terror attacks, we are generally able to get on with the business of living miserably or prosperously – but living.

Are men more violent than women?

Article here. Excerpt:

'Steven F. Messner and Robert J. Sampson decided to take a closer look at the numbers behind the statistics of violence. They approached the issue by testing a simple hypothesis: If men are more violent than women, we should see more acts of violence in communities that have a larger male population compared to a female population. But their findings proved differently.

Messner and Sampson discovered that the rate of violent crime was higher in communities that had more females than males. This meant a larger percentage of men in these communities committed acts of violence than men in communities with a more balanced ratio of men to women. Why would that be?
