'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.

'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 YouTuber who was arrested last week after getting into a physical fight with her boyfriend on a livestream says she feels lucky to have walked away from the altercation with her life.

Elisa Jordana, the former Howard Stern Show writer and personality, spoke with TMZ in the aftermath of her arrest for felony battery.

Jordana - whose real name is Elisa Ann Schwartz - claims she was hit repeatedly and even suffocated by the man in the car. The man, her on-camera love interest Bahram Alipour, is the son of a wealthy Beverly Hills businessman.

The two were filmed hitting each other during a livestream where Jordana accused Alipour of cheating.

The live-streamer insists she is the true victim, because she feels that in slightly different circumstances, she could 'be dead right now.''

'I’ve been passed over for a promotion by several females and was told that’s just the way it is; that we have to promote women, as well as racially diverse people. So, white men are becoming extinct in the workplace. Does that sound like a lawsuit to you? These are the horrible questions you have to ask in these horrific times.
...
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.'

One Zoe Strimpel with feminist bona fides now wants Western men to reclaim violence and act! Funny how feminist pacifism goes right out the door and admonishes men to act when Reality presses in. Article here. Excerpt:

'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.

'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?

'Associate Professor in the Department of Social Work Denise Hines was the keynote speaker for an FBI event for Domestic Violence Awareness Month (October) dedicated to bringing awareness to male victims of intimate partner violence (IPV), a historically under-recognized population of IPV victims. The event, “Men: An Underrepresented Victim,” shed light on the statistics and lived experiences of male IPV victims. Hines’s speech, which included evidence supported by her research, provided key insights on the physical, psychological, sexual, and legal/administrative abuse men can experience at the hands of their partners.

'Coward said the “due process rollbacks of the proposed rules” are “numerous and alarming.”

“They would: eliminate students’ right to a live hearing; eliminate the right to cross-examination; weaken students’ right to active legal representation,” he wrote.

The new regulations would “allow a single campus bureaucrat to serve as judge and jury; require colleges and universities to use the weak ‘preponderance of the evidence’ standard to determine guilt, unless they use a higher standard for other alleged misconduct.”

George Washington University law Professor John Banzhaf agreed with Coward’s concerns.

Banzhaf told The Fix “under the new regulations” for Title IX complaints, those charged with violating the rules “would be entitled to various procedural due process protections which have yet to be determined.” However, there is a history of schools failing to fulfill due process requirements even before the new regulations, he said.'

'As the Department of Education finalizes new regulations that would strip college students of critical due process rights in cases involving allegations of sexual misconduct, a survey released today by the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression shows Americans overwhelmingly support these rights and believe they are necessary to ensure fairness and just outcomes.

Title IX is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in educational programs receiving federal funds. Among other things, it requires institutions to investigate allegations of sexual harassment and assault. After a series of delays, the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs is expected by May to finalize its review of proposed Title IX changes that would reverse due process protections for college students accused of sexual misconduct.'

'A male student accused of sexual assault and subsequently expelled by administrators at Amherst College recently sued the school for denying him due process and ignoring key evidence substantiating his claims of innocence.

In February 2012, the male student—identified as “John Doe”—escorted his girlfriend’s roommate, identified as Sandra Jones, back to her residence hall where Jones then performed oral sex on him. Doe alleges that he was blacked out during the encounter.

Roughly two years after the incident occurred, the female student accused Doe of sexually assaulting her and the school launched its own investigation. Doe was forced to partake in a school-led rape trial absent of any legal representation and eventually expelled after a panel of students and administrators found him ‘guilty.’'

'That thousands of Ukrainian men have chosen to risk the swim rather than face the dangers as soldiers on the eastern front highlights the challenge for President Volodymyr Zelensky as he seeks to mobilize fresh troops after more than two years of bruising, bloody trench warfare with Russia.

“We cannot judge these people,” Lieutenant Tonkoshtan said. “But if all men leave, who will defend Ukraine?”

With Russia having seized the initiative on the battlefield in recent months, Ukraine’s ability to defend itself hinges on replenishing its arsenal of weaponry, a matter largely up to allies, and mobilizing troops at home.'

'An increasing number of experiments have intentionally inflicted genital pain upon thousands of boys for the past fifty years using them as guinea pigs to study the "efficacy" of anesthesia and surgical devices during the genital surgery to remove their foreskins (aka circumcision). A search at PubMed for journal articles containing the key phrase (circumcision anesthesia) OR (circumcision pain) and filtered by sex, age, and date of publication yielded some surprising and ghastly results. 31,303 boys 2 were enrolled by their parents in 192 studies from September 1974 to April 2024. All the studies acknowledged that circumcision was painful. All concluded that no surgical device, technique, anesthesia, or pain relief protocol removed all pain.'

'Quinnipiac University School of Law is facing a federal civil rights complaint for a scholarship only open to women and LGBTQ+ students.

The complaint, filed last week with the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights, comes from legal scholar Adam Kissel who shared a copy with The College Fix.

Kissel, a visiting fellow at the Heritage Foundation and former deputy assistant secretary for higher education in the Trump Administration, told The Fix the Goff Law Group Endowed Law Scholarship is “a blatant violation of civil rights.” Title IX prohibits educational institutions from discrimination on the basis of sex.'

'A YouTuber and former Howard Stern show personality has issued an apology after a video of her battering her boyfriend went viral and led to her arrest.

Elisa Ann Schwartz, who goes by the pseudonym Elisa Jordana, posted a livestream to YouTube on Monday as she drove through Palm Beach County, Florida.

'A museum in Australia is being forced to allow men into art exhibit originally conceived for women only, after a tribunal ruled it “discriminatory,” following a complaint by a disgruntled man who was denied entry.

Tasmania’s Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) has been ordered to stop refusing entry to “persons who do not identify as ladies,” to its Ladies Lounge exhibit within 28 days, after a ruling was made by the Tasmanian Civil and Administrative Tribunal on Tuesday.
...
During proceedings, Kaechele told the tribunal that denying men entry to the mysterious room is indeed part of the art — giving them a taste of the discrimination and exclusion many women have experienced through history.

Kaechele said she believed that women “deserve both equal rights and special privileges in the form of unequal rights,” as a means of restitution for historical injustices, “for a minimum of 300 years.”'
