Article here. Indeed. All Internet trolling comes from MRAs. And vice versa? Really, Time. Stupid even for you. Excerpt:
'But trolling has become the main tool of the alt-right, an Internet-grown reactionary movement that works for men’s rights and against immigration and may have used the computer from Weird Science to fabricate Donald Trump. Not only does Trump share their attitudes, but he’s got mad trolling skills: he doxxed Republican primary opponent Senator Lindsey Graham by giving out his cell-phone number on TV and indirectly got his Twitter followers to attack GOP political strategist Cheri Jacobus so severely that her lawyers sent him a cease-and-desist order.
'Women held in local jails represent the fastest growing population of incarcerated people in the US, according to a new study. The researchers found that trauma, sexual violence and mental health issues were all closely wrapped up with the swelling numbers.
“While we started to see a decline in the incarceration and jailing of men, we haven’t seen a comparable kind of trend for women,” said Laurie Garduque, director of Justice Reform for the MacArthur Foundation, which co-published the report with the Vera Institute. Since 1970, the number of women in US jails has increased by 14 times, far outstripping the growth in the male prison population, even though in raw numbers there remain many more men locked up.
'In Rochester Hills, a 72-year-old woman -- accused of beating up a 90-year-old man and that's not all.
Police say she also got into a fight with a deputy, sending him to the hospital.
Darlene Stolaruk is in trouble with the law, because of what happened at Star Bat Inc. Leasing, the business she shares with her husband in Rochester Hills.'
'In a tearful courtroom confession, a daughter has admitted using the best-selling sadomasochistic sex novel Fifty Shades of Grey as the basis for a series of false rape claims against her father.
Defence barrister Cathy McCulloch had, she said, never read the novel until she was called in late to defend the father, who was accused of eight incestuous rapes over a six-year period.'
'Tory MP Philip Davies is being threatened with suspension from his own party. No, he didn’t fake his expenses or get caught in flagrante, wearing nothing but a replica Chelsea top. All Davies did was criticise feminism.
...
Many have praised Rayner for calling out Davies’ putative sexism, most notably Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn. Tweeting his support for Rayner’s call for a party suspension, Corbyn said Davies’ comments ‘show utter contempt for women’.
Yet is Davies really deserving of this scorn? For a start, as most women will no doubt be aware, men’s rights activists meetings are pretty lame affairs. The comments made at such gatherings are scarcely interesting enough to be considered threatening. But Rayner seems to think differently. ‘[Davies] endorses and legitimises the inflammatory and toxic rhetoric of groups who are misogynistic to their core’, she writes. Davies’ speech, she is saying, actually poses a threat to women’s safety and wellbeing.'
'The Labour MP calling for Philip Davies MP to be sacked for addressing a men’s right’s group has attended gender segregated Muslim events and was selected to stand for parliament on a discriminatory all-woman shortlist.
Angela Rayner, the hard left, “feminist” MP for Ashton-under-Lyne failed to condemn or speak out against the blatant gender discrimination committed at a Labour Friends of Bangladesh in November last year, despite sitting in the segregated audience, as Guido Fawkesreported.'
'Let’s see whether the Harvard administration really cares about getting rid of single-sex clubs as a matter of equity, or whether it just wants to demonize men.
Facing the same pressure as so-called final clubs to open their membership to the opposite sex or get hit with sanctions by Harvard, the all-female Seneca organization has promised to become “gender neutral.”
What it hasn’t promised is that it will ever admit men.'
'NSW Government has committed to providing $13 million over four years for Victims Services to pilot new responses for male victims of domestic and family violence, through expert NGO support (you can find details of the Tender process here).
This rollout is a historic Australia-first initiative and hopefully the first of many. It is the first step towards gender equity for family violence victims. It comes after 7 years of lobbying by the One in Three Campaign alongside other individuals and organisations.
The funding for these services is a new stream, and has NOT been taken out of the budget for women’s services. Nevertheless we expect Minister Pru Goward to receive a great number of angry letters dismayed at her decision to support male victims.'
'With the exception of the age group between 45-59 (a 15 year span) years old, women cost more to the state than the tax they provide. In contrast, men generate more tax revenue than they cost between 23 and 65 (a 43 year span). In the brief period in which women generate more or as much tax money than they consume, men outscore them by at least 3 times.
By the end of her life, the average woman will have a negative fiscal impact of $150,000.
By large, the cumulative tax money given to women outweighs the tax money generated by women. The short period of positive impact of women between 45 and 59 is countered by 65 other years in which their allocated tax expenditure is more than what they supply the state.'
'Surveillance footage showed Fermina Bertos, then 24, walking with Madrigal toward the coffee shop in July 2014 before pulling her gun from her purse as he opened the door for her.
Now, a woman who aspired to become an advocate for sexual assault and human trafficking victims is headed to prison for 13 years.
Bertos was sentenced in King County Superior Court's Kent courthouse Friday, where friends and family members of both Bertos and Madrigal packed the courtroom. Several attested to Bertos's standing as a kind friend, responsible employee, good daughter and star student.
...
But Bertos's promising future is on hold after the uncharacteristic shooting of a man she believed raped her the night before.
Bertos and Madrigal began to see each other less than two weeks before the shooting. One night, they had a sexual encounter that she believed was rape, but Madrigal told police she did nothing to indicate it was not consensual, according to court records.
'Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's campaign reportedly made some edits to the campus sexual assault page on its website shortly after a viral tweet from Juanita Broaddrick, Buzzfeed News reported.
The Democratic nominee's campaign deleted the line, "You have the right to be believed," from the page on its site.
The website originally read: "I want to send a message to every survivor of sexual assault: Don't let anyone silence your voice. You have the right to be heard. You have the right to be believed, and we're with you," quoting Clinton.
The last part of the quote has since been removed.
Clinton tweeted in September that every sexual assault survivor had "the right to be believed."
She was later asked at a campaign event if the women who had accused her husband of sexual harassment and assault, including Broaddrick, deserved to be "believed" also.'
'When her boyfriend refused to have sex with her, a Florida woman repeatedly kicked him in the face, an attack that has landed her in jail for battery, cops say.
According to an arrest affidavit, Jennifer Furguson, 34, sought a 6:30 AM tryst Wednesday with her beau inside the couple’s Port St. Lucie residence.
The victim, who has been in a relationship with Furguson for two years, told police that “Jennifer became upset at him when he refused to have sex with her this morning.”'

"Dear misogynist trolls I'm going to make things easier for you - save u some time. All men are rapists and should be put in prison then shot" (Julie Bindel)
'Paternity fraud, is when a mother names a man to be the father of their child, when she knows or suspects that he is not the biological father. This video addresses the issue of Paternity Fraud and the devastating effects it has (not only on men) but the women in their lives; their spouses, girlfriends, mothers, aunts, grandmothers, relatives, and especially on children.
In a world where divorce and separation have become the norm, it is more important than ever to make sure that children remain the center of our lives and the top of our priorities.
'It’s called composure, and Hope Solo’s never been overburdened with a lot of that, or grace either. The U.S. women’s soccer team had their temperaments tested by a savvy, conservative Sweden in the Olympic quarterfinals and lost. Solo has spent years undermining their collective equilibrium, and this one’s on her.
She’s a chronically rattled and rattling soul, the American goalkeeper. Let’s face it: For every shiny marketing moment and big victory she’s been a part of, she’s given the U.S. a nasty unwanted drama. The victories usually smoothed over her behavior. Not this time. This time she went pure loser and lout.
