Article here. Excerpt:
'Most young women are scared of men their age, according to a poll which reveals the impact of so-called “toxic masculinity” on the sexes.
Nearly two-thirds of women aged 18 to 24 are living in fear of their male peers, research by the Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) found.
With International Women’s Day on Saturday, a Whitestone Insight survey commissioned by the think tank found that 62 per cent of young women believe most young men are “pretty frightening”.
More than two-fifths of young men (41 per cent) agree with their female counterparts.
The finding features in Lost Boys, a study published by the CSJ that details the plight of Britain’s boys and young men.
Not only are males now falling behind females in education and the workplace, but they are also increasingly viewed with suspicion by women.'

Article here. Feminists want men, esp. white ones, to be silent and fade away. We're not gonna do that. In fact, we're just getting started! Excerpt:
'OK, men, so will you finally quit complaining?
In 2021, Joe Rogan famously said, “It will eventually get to straight white men are not allowed to talk…It will be, ‘You’re not allowed to go outside’…I’m not joking. It really will get there, it’s that crazy.” But Rogan’s complaint is actually an old one that has exploded as a rallying cry every decade or so for more than 50 years. White guys have blamed others for their job losses, educational failures, economic problems and drug addictions.
Somebody else is always at fault. The mighty white guy, it turns out, is quite the delicate flower.

'The National Coalition for Men (NCFM) filed a lawsuit against the state of California for violating the equal rights of boys and of men.
Suicide, overdose, and alcohol death in California increased 49% for its boys and men from 2018 and 2019 to 2022 and 2023, and boys and men account for 75% of all the deaths of despair in California—a topic I discuss in my new book Boys, A Rescue Plan: Moving Beyond the Politics of Masculinity to Healthy Male Development and coauthored with New York Times best-selling author Michael Gurian. We argue that brain-sex difference matters and understanding those differences are critical in helping boys and men and girls and women in all sorts of areas.
Boys and men account for 75% of all the deaths of despair in California.

Article here. Eventually any given 'ism' gets branches and at least some of those will grow contrary to the well-being of the rest of the proverbial tree. I'm liking this. Excerpt:
'The occasion for these declarations was Trump’s all-out assault on trans rights. Since taking office, the president has used executive orders to attempt to restrict the ability of trans Americans to travel, work, receive medical care, serve in the military, attend school and participate in women’s sports. Though there are thought to be fewer than 10 trans athletes among the more than half a million competing in college sports in the US, it was this sports-related executive order that prompted certain, trans-exclusionary feminists to declare Trump’s feminist bona fides.
How did we get here? How have we arrived at a place where self-identified feminists ally themselves with a man who has so extravagantly dedicated his personal and political lives to the humiliation, domination and degradation of women and girls?

'A woman who groomed and sexually assaulted a young boy over several months has been jailed for four years.
Caitlin Hutchinson, 21, of Roker Avenue in Sunderland, sent the victim sexually explicit text messages and made him carry out sex acts on her.
Durham Police said Hutchinson initially denied the offences and told officers the boy had forced himself on her.
The boy, who is in his early teens, said the last 18 months had been hell and he could not forgive Hutchinson for "ruining his childhood".'

'The Rise Up Foundation held a graduation ceremony Wednesday evening at The Linc for 31 young men who completed the Healthy Masculinity Project, marking the first time the program has been offered as an all-boys class.
The program, developed in partnership with A Call to Men and Scholastic, is designed to challenge gender norms and promote respect, accountability and leadership in young men. Participants came from across Mid-Missouri, including Columbia, Moberly and Jefferson City.
Each graduate received a teal tie, the color representing sexual assault awareness, and a City of Jefferson proclamation recognized the program’s efforts in promoting leadership and violence prevention.'

Article here. Short version: Women are (finally) being arrested more often for DV. Excerpt:
'On the increase in the female violent crime arrest rate specifically, Lofstrom and senior researcher for the Center on Juvenile and Criminal Justice, Mike Males, told Newsweek that increased domestic violence policing that began in the 1980s is a major factor.
"While men are more likely to be arrested for violence throughout society, women's violence arrests disproportionately occur from domestic incidents," Males said.

'Britain’s fire service is too male and too white, a report has claimed.
The report, which was commissioned by the National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC), found that the fire service was “institutionally racist, misogynistic and homophobic”.
It said firemen in Britain were not “diverse” enough because the service’s proportion of women and ethnic minorities is less than in wider society.
Produced by an advisory group focused on improving diversity, equality and inclusion in the fire service, the report found that 9.3 per cent of firefighters were women and 5.4 per cent belonged to ethnic minorities as of March 2024.'

'The entire episode reveals the flaws of the #MeToo movement. Believing all women are vulnerable to the predations of all men fails to account for the real-world messiness of how sexuality actually intersects with power. But it also reveals the flaws of the man-bun feminism Baldoni has personified for his entire career. He quite literally wrote the book on beta maleness, buying into the idea that masculinity itself is a crime that must be “undone.” Perhaps he convinced himself that women can’t be bullies but only bullied. And so he accepted Lively’s takeover of the film, which is what ultimately led to the demise of their relationship.

'There is a marked shift in tolerance of woke ideology and of feminism. People are starting to wake up. This short clip features Argentina’s President Javier Milei’s recent remarks to the WEF where he called out feminists and woke ideology. In the first half of the clip he explains how the social justice movements have robbed western cultures. He then focuses on feminism and clearly states they are not about equality but are about privilege. Well worth it to see the entire speech and I will leave a link below for anyone interested.
When officials like Milei speak the truth it gives a green light for others to voice their concerns about feminism. Thank you President Milei.'

Another whopping $40 million was allotted to a “gender equality and women empowerment hub,” and a staggering $486 million was going to go to the “Consortium for Elections and Political Process Strengthening,” including $22 million for “inclusive and participatory political process” in Moldova and $21 million for voter turnout in India.

'President Trump is moving quickly to dismantle DEI initiatives and root out waste and fraud. However, if he truly wants to restore America's greatness, he must confront the deeply embedded misandry in our culture. Some of this stems from feminist-driven legislation and bureaucracies that have taken hold and harmed men, children, and families. Other aspects reflect long-standing societal biases against men. To make America a place where men and boys can be respected and truly thrive, the following changes are essential:'

'Last week Maryland Governor Wes Moore, a Democrat, gave a state of the state speech in which he highlighted the problems and challenges facing men and boys in his state. Gov. Moore’s speech highlighted a range of concerns:
“And it’s not just that in Maryland, labor force participation for young men is nearly the lowest it has been in two decades.
“It’s also that suicide rates among men under 30 have risen by more than a third since 2010.
“Across the country, college attainment levels are the same now for men and boys as they were in 1964.
“And Maryland still sends youth under the age of 18 to our state prisons at twice the national rate.'
