'When teenagers break up, it can be pretty dramatic.

For one teen, his high school romance popped back up to haunt him years later as he entered college:
...
Video evidence reportedly shows Grossman could not have been stalking her. Grossman is now suing the school and Torrey for having him arrested, and his attorney stated that the NYPD will be added to the suit as soon as the proper paperwork is filed.

If the above information is accurate, it presents what sure looks like a pattern of harassment against Grossman, a young man who simply wants to go on with his life. From the moment Torrey's parents called to demand he drop out, it appears that Grossman has been under attack.'

'On July 15, 2015, John won. Judge Joel Pressman threw out the university’s finding of responsibility and its sanction. “Due process,” Pressman wrote, “requires that a hearing … be a real one, not a sham or a pretense.” Pressman found that the disciplinary proceedings against John violated one of the most fundamental rights guaranteed by the Constitution: the right to confront and cross-examine his accuser. Pressman also faulted the panel for viewing Jane’s accusation “in a vacuum.” Jane’s decision to have sex with John later that same day, the judge wrote, did “not demonstrate non-consensual behavior.”

'Maine First Media dropped a bombshell recording recently from a Values and Vision Summit held by the Maine Democratic Party. In the recording, Richard Fochtmann can be heard celebrating the rise in white men committing suicide and the attendees laughing at the joke.

In the time since, the national media has picked up the story from the Washington Times to Fox News’s Tucker Carlson. Conservative activists and suicide prevention advocates have both taken issue with the comments, which paint a disturbing picture of the Maine Democratic Party.
...
While the Maine Democratic Party states the joke do not represent the Party, they painted the speaker as someone who is not affiliated with Democrats formally. The problem is this isn’t entirely true.

'People wonder why some of us are so unimpressed with modern feminism. To those people, I would direct their attention to the news that a Michigan doctor allegedly performed female genital mutilation (FGM) on multiple young girls.

More specifically, I’d direct their attention to the lack of attention feminists have given this horrific story.

The Department of Justice has charged female emergency room physician Jumana Nagarwala with performing FGM in the U.S. It alleges Nagarwala performed the procedures on “multiple minor girls.” Nagarwala is the first person to be charged in the U.S. under anti-FGM laws.

'The Le Sueur County sheriff and attorney offices last week released video of Blanche Wilson meeting with an undercover sheriff investigator posing as a hired killer.

An acquaintance told authorities Blanche and her mother, Linda Bloom, were seeking to hire someone to kill Shaun after he gained custody of the three children he shared with Blanche. The informant helped authorities set up an undercover operation that led to the arrests of mother and daughter in June.

Wilson was sentenced to 15 years in prison April 15 after pleading guilty to conspiracy to commit murder. Bloom pleaded guilty to the same charge and was sentenced to nearly 11 years in prison in October.

Now that the prosecution is complete, the video and other case evidence are public.'

When I think of how automation/AI is going to eliminate millions of jobs over the next 30 years, I think of this story being like two groups of hungry people on the Titanic arguing/competing in the dining room over who will get the best seats. Meanwhile, the ship is heading ever closer to the iceberg. Also, notice the careers that are going to do well: healthcare (an aging population) and computer-related (people programming the computers that replace people at jobs). Kind of a gloomy picture getting painted here. Excerpt:

This may not seem like a men's rights issues but in Australia, there are dozens of government subsidised "migrant women's" and "multicultural women's" organisations, most of a western feminist bend (which otherwise has no interest in other cultures and issues affecting migrants) and comprised of "diverse" women who have nothing in common except seeking mutual concessions and continued funding.

Readers knowledgeable about such issues might like to balance their inevitable submissions by making sure the issues and challenges of migrant men are also brought to the attention of the committee.

Excerpt:

'The committee is to inquire into and report on ways of protecting and strengthening Australia’s multiculturalism and social inclusion, with particular reference to:

a. the views and experiences of people from culturally and linguistically diverse, and new and emerging communities;
b. the adequacy and accessibility of settlement and social inclusion services and resources available to individuals and communities;
c. the adequacy of existing data collection and social research on racially motivated crimes;
d. the impact of discrimination, vilification and other forms of exclusion and bigotry on the basis of ‘race’, colour, national or ethnic origin, culture or religious belief;
e. the impact of political leadership and media representation on the prevalence of vilification and other forms of exclusion and bigotry on the basis of ‘race’, colour, national or ethnic origin, culture or religious belief;
f. how to improve the expected standards of public discourse about matters of ‘race’, colour, national or ethnic origin, culture or religious belief;
g. how to better recognise and value the contribution that diverse communities bring to Australian social and community life;

'Disney is selling a new “Feminist Baby” children’s book so parents can teach their toddlers to grow up to be “progressive thinkers” who “smash the patriarchy” and believe gender is a social construct.

Loryn Brantz, the author and illustrator behind “Feminist Baby,” told TIME that her 22-page children’s book aims to make children “liberal and progressive thinkers.”

“They’re not going to take away all the nuances and important parts of feminism necessarily, but it’s important just to have it be in their vocabulary and part of their life rather than discovering it when they’re older,” Brantz explained. “It’s so that they’re aware of feminism and see it as a good thing and not a bad thing."

“They need to grow up with feminism and not be scared of it, and not think that it means they're going to be overpowered by women someday,” Brantz said. “It just means wanting equality for everyone. It’s not something they think they need to fight when they’re older.”'

'Former CBC radio star Jian Ghomeshi betrayed no emotion as he learned he had been found not guilty of all charges in connection with his high profile trial Thursday.

Ghomeshi, who faced four counts of sexual assault and one count of overcome resistance by choking, was acquitted based on Justice William B. Horkins’ assertion that there was “outright deception” in the testimony brought forth by three complainants.

“The success of this prosecution depended entirely on the court being able to accept each complainant as a sincere, honest and accurate witness,” Horkins said in his decision.

“Each complainant was revealed at trial to be lacking in these important attributes. The evidence of each complainant suffered not just from inconsistencies and questionable behaviour, but was tainted by outright deception.”

'A Maine-based website has released cellphone video of Democrats at a “Values and Vision” community meeting laughing at suicide among America’s white male population.

Video released Friday from a recent event hosted by the Maine Democratic Party features former state senatorial candidate Richard Fochtmann discussing giddiness at news of white male suicide. The incident, shared by Maine First Media and picked up by The Daily Caller soon afterward, elicited raucous laughter from attendees.

'A male senior student at Cornell University has filed a Title IX lawsuit against the university, a Cornell Title IX investigator and Interim Judicial Administrator Jody Kunk-Czaplicki following an investigation of physical and sexual misconduct allegations.

According to a complaint filed in U.S District Court for the Northern District of New York, the student claims the defendants failed to offer fair and adequate means for the man to defend himself against allegations. The lawsuit states the university wrongfully suspended him and intentionally inflicted a flawed Title IX investigation process that denied him the right to a hearing and due process. Additionally, the lawsuit claims the university refused to investigate the male student's own accusations of sexual misconduct and physical assault against a female student.'

'One of the latest attempts to lift the feminist debate out of the mire and into the fresh air is the call for feminists to be less likeable, more radical, and, for our “male feminists,” to be on guard against the “toxic societal model of masculinity.” There’s only one problem: Modern feminism has never been likeable, because it refuses, as an ideology, to be fact-based and straightforward. No amount of male acrimony or female charisma can save a cause that’s as repulsive as it is factless and misguided.
...
Part of the lack of political correctness in the current movement, or any real progress or direction thereof, is due to its ability to function essentially without either goalposts or facts to back up its wild assertions. Thus, modern feminism is left to the emotions of feeling unequal but used, loud yet voiceless, and as a result, it has become anything but likeable or even understandable.'

'A lawyers group is arguing that the federal government’s Title IX guidance deprives college students accused of sexual assault of their fundamental rights.

The American College of Trial Lawyers came to the conclusion after commissioning a report by the Task Force on the Response of Universities and Colleges to Allegations of Sexual Violence.

The ACTL recommended colleges use the “clear and convincing” standard of guilt to discipline students for sexual assault.

'The term “toxic masculinity” is en vogue now, from college campuses to Playboy. But the term implies there’s a problem with masculinity, and teaching our boys and men that their innate wiring is wrong, stupid, and even toxic creates far worse problems. If anything, society doesn’t need less toxic masculinity, we need more men embracing their natural masculinity.

The latest in the explorations and denigrations of toxic masculinity is the University of Regina, a school in Canada. They’re hosting a program called “Man Up Against Violence,” which asks male students to sit in a Catholic-style confessional booth and confess their sin of “hypermasculinity.”

What’s that? You weren’t aware masculinity, hyper or otherwise, was a problem? Well, universities want guys to own it and apologize for it—not just inwardly, but outwardly too. After a female colleague wrote about toxic masculinity, New Zealand’s Martin Van Beynen observed, “Toxic masculinity is the new male burden.” He is also trying to figure out what it means.'

Here is the latest challenge to PSA test usefulness for Prostate Cancer screening in the USA. Malecare feels you should be empowered to participate in this national health policy issue.

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force released a new guideline, determining that the potential benefits and harms of prostate-specific antigen (PSA)-based screening in men ages 55 to 69 years suggest that the decision to be screened should be an individual one.

For men age 70 years and older, the Task Force found that the potential benefits do not outweigh the harms, and these men should not be screened for prostate cancer.
