'Last Wednesday, Rolling Stone‘s website published an article titled: “Why Derrick Rose Rape Trial May Wreck NBA Commissioner Adam Silver’s Legacy.” Friday, Rolling Stone deleted the article from its site. (An archived version can be found here.)

Politico reports that Rolling Stone was contacted by the NBA, which had a number of objections to the story. Rolling Stone subsequently issued two corrections.

Deadspin reports that Rolling Stone sports editor Jason Diamond was going back-and-forth on the corrections with the NBA before unnamed superiors on the masthead got involved, and apparently made the decision to take the piece down Friday morning.'

'The University of Cincinnati suspended a male student accused of sexual assault “in order to look good for the Department of Education” and campus advocates who believe there’s a “rape culture” at the school, according to a lawsuit by the student.

The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that it couldn’t find a Title IX complaint filed against the student from its review of university records, suggesting that a campus official initiated disciplinary proceedings, not the accuser.

The lawsuit says “John Doe” has been suspended until January 2018 in response to allegations from September 2015, following a Tinder date with another student. That female reported him to campus police about a month later, but Doe claims the sex was consensual:'

'Shannon Stubbs, the Conservative party’s deputy critic for natural resources, accused Canada’s finance minister of “mansplaining” today.

Stubbs, who represents the riding of Lakeland in Alberta, rose this afternoon to call into question the Liberal government’s treatment of Albertans during an economically difficult time.

In response to her question, Morneau pointed to federal government’s tax cuts for middle-class Canadians.

“We have lowered taxes on Albertans this year, so we’ve made sure they have more money in their pocket this year than they did last year,” he said.

Stubbs was not impressed.

“Well, thanks for the mansplain,” she said, before continuing onto her second question.

Yikes.'

'University of Notre Dame anthropologist Michael Jindra first noticed in the late 1990s that more and more, his students, particularly the young men, seemed less invested in their studies.

“It’s hard to describe. It just seemed like their heads were someplace else,” Jindra said. “More than in the past.”

Jindra talked to some of his struggling students and found various reasons for their academic performance, but one thing stood out: all-night video game marathons.

A theory took root that Jindra's been studying ever since — a cultural shift is under way, a kind of escapism where a growing number of young people, especially men, are becoming more invested in recreational pursuits to “escape” their traditional social roles, like being fathers or career-driven providers.'

'The toxic poison of feminism has caused a lot of damage to society, devaluing and degrading men. Is it any surprise, then, that brainwashed women and even some brainwashed men are hoping to only give birth to daughters and not sons?
...
Congratulations to feminists! Years of browbeating men as hostile, brute oppressors of women have paid off. Not only have you convinced some women that men are the enemy, but you have even got some men hating themselves, to the point that they do not wish to see more of their kind populate the earth.'

'Daniel Andrews’ government is either so asinine that it is being led by the nose by far-Left social engineers or it is consciously pursuing an agenda most Australians would recognise as harmful and sinister. Either way, it’s time the Victorian community and the state’s opposition declared: “enough!” Imagine the uproar if preschoolers were indoctrinated with propaganda that set them on guard against their mothers, grandmothers, female teachers or other women. That is precisely what the state’s preschoolers will be subjected to in a new program — though it should surprise nobody that the “villains” they will be warned against are men.

As Rebecca Urban reports today, the Resilience, Rights and Respectful Relationships program, to be rolled out next year, will associate masculinity with dominance, control and violence against women. It is misnamed. But children will need to be resilient to withstand it, and it shows little respect for families’ rights or children’s relationships with their fathers and other men.

'Martyrs of Marriage is a documentary film that documents the injustice that has been perpetrated on people because of misuse of section 498A of Indian Penal Code commonly known as the Anti Dowry law in India. A feature length, first person account of those who have suffered at the hands of abuse of this provision, the film delves deep into the problem, the reasons behind it and the repercussions of the same.

For long, people have believed that it is only women who suffer or give up their lives because of harassment by her husband and in-laws. But there's an other side of the story as well. The film intends to wake up the society to the fact that “men” can be victims too in marital relationships and that the laws that have been made for protection of women have been and are being misused to harass men, women and their families too.'

Malecare recently launched Cancergraph - an iPhone application that tracks cancer symptoms. It's free and ready for you to download, today.

Designed by prostate cancer survivors and caregivers, Cancergraph focuses on the unique experiences faced by those who are diagnosed with one or more cancers.

Cancergraph serves as a memory tool, giving patients and their doctors reliable reports about day-to-day cancer-related experiences. With an easy-to-navigate interface, patients can choose from a list of over 200 symptoms and side effects, and have the option to include cancer types, medications and concerns. Cancergraph then distills the data into a report that patients can view on their phone or email to doctors.    

Patients can also take disease- and symptom-related photos to be added to a secure photo storage area on their mobile device. Additionally, Cancergraph has a journal feature so patients can document their experiences in more detail.

'Gettysburg College freshman James Goodman began his first moments of higher education by being lectured by campus leaders about “toxic masculinity,” he tells The College Fix in an interview.

Students who “identify as male” were shown a docudrama film about masculinity. The film, titled “The Mask You Live In,” was part of the lessons warning students that the notion of masculinity comes with harmful side effects, he said.

According to the trailer of the film, it teaches that the “three most destructive words” a boy can hear growing up is “be a man.” Experts quoted therein also suggest that violent outbursts are prompted by masculinity pressures because “respect is linked to violence.”'

'False Accusations are allegations that are made against a person that are unproven and untrue, usually causing irreparable damage to the reputation, character, or integrity to person falsely accused.

False accusations are an effective way of reversing the prevailing direction of custody cases and are often made to gain the "upper hand" during custody battles, to put the opposition at an immediate disadvantage, to tie up the other party with additional litigation, and to hurt the other party out of hate, fear, or spite.'

'DOMESTIC violence against men has trebled in the past decade, shocking official figures reveal.

A record 5,640 wives and girlfriends were convicted of assaulting their male partners last year — up from 1,850 in 2007.

The issue has become a taboo because victims are often too ashamed to talk about their experiences.

But an MP is now calling for action after evidence emerged the problem is growing at an alarming rate.

Stats released by the Attorney General show 177 women are convicted of domestic abuse EVERY WEEK.'

'Groups that advocate for women’s rights are lashing out at Donald Trump for allegations of groping women and bragging about sexual assaults.

But some of those same groups did not think former President Bill Clinton’s allegations of sexual misconduct nearly two decades ago were disqualifying in the same way.

At least three women – Juanita Broaddrick, Paula Jones and Kathleen Willey – accused Clinton of unwanted sexual advances. Another five, including White House intern Monica Lewinsky, said they had had consensual affairs with him. Clinton was impeached on charges of lying about the Lewinsky affair before a grand jury and of obstruction of justice, but was acquitted and served his full presidential term.

Women’s groups largely stayed supportive.

“Feminists have, all along, muffled, disguised, excused and denied the worst aspects of the president’s behavior with women,” said a lengthy Vanity Fair article from 1998.

'When the University of Houston’s football players arrive for a game, they know what to expect as a prelude to the coming hours of brutality as they file into the stadium: a kiss on the cheek from their head coach, Tom Herman.

It is an unusual ritual in a sport that embodies America’s most rigid ideals of manhood.

“A kiss on the cheek is when he shows his love for us,” Houston safety Garrett Davis said, adding, “No one here is thinking, ‘Oh, I shouldn’t let him kiss me.’”

Physical expressions of affection certainly exist in big-time sports. Nothing says “Good job!” in baseball like a firm pat on the behind from a coach, and in international soccer it is not uncommon to see teammates peck each other on the cheek after a big play.'

'A Middle Tennessee mother is fighting a corporal punishment policy at her son’s high school.

She said it’s not the hitting she’s concerned with, but who is receiving the punishment.

Misty Kilburn said her son came home from Lawrence County High School with a letter stating the teacher in his construction trade class was going to reinstate corporal punishment due to misbehavior.

Kilburn said she was about to sign it until she learned it only applied to one gender.

The note reads in part: “Due to interruptions and discipline problems in trade classes, we are going to reinstate corporal punishment.”

Kilburn didn’t have a problem with the note, but then her son told her something else.

“The girls were sent into another classroom and the boys were the ones who had to write this out, and the girls were not to be included on the corporal punishment,” she said.'

'A new women’s-only workspace and social club in New York City, created to offer like-minded members a place to network and connect, seeks to offer an alternative to standard coworking spaces and their sometimes “bro-centric” culture, and tap into the “magic that’s created when women gather together.”

The Wing —the brainchild of 29-year-old Audrey Gelman, a PR specialist who was the inspiration for the Marnie character on Girls, and her friend and partner Lauren Kassen, previously a director at ClassPass—came out of a desire to create a women’s-only space that offers the flexibility of coworking spaces and the community of social clubs without being too stuffy. The name itself is a play off the wing of a home, a reference to a space of one’s own.'
