'Three years ago, Linda Reutzel, Chair of the National Parents Organization chapter of Missouri, decided to take matters into her own hands. Her son had received the usual treatment in family court, and Linda was rarely able to see her own grandchild. So she decided to get the custody law changed.

Now, three years later, she can point with pride to the near-unanimous passage of a strong shared parenting law in Missouri, which was signed into law by Governor Jay Nixon a few weeks ago!'

'Setting aside the conviction and life sentence imposed on a farmer by a trial court on the charge of raping a minor girl, the Madurai Bench of Madras High Court observed that the prosecution should be vigilant enough to conduct the investigation in a right manner and bring home the guilt of the accused in a flawless way.

This is imperative, as “any failure on the part of the prosecution would definitely go to the benefit of the accused,” said Justice B. Gokuldas. Allowing a criminal appeal filed by farmer Chellappan from Gandarvakottai village in Pudukottai district, a division bench comprising Justices K.K. Sasidharan and Gokuldas said that the medical officer who issued the certificate of the minor girl had very clearly mentioned that there was neither external injury on the private part nor any internal injury in the form of tearing of hymen.

'What happens when women represent 7 out of every 10 students across an entire class of colleges?

Men’s athletics get the ax – or more accurately, they get clear-cut.
...
It’s emblematic of schools in predominantly black conferences, where more than a dozen sports – “mainly of the nonrevenue variety” – have been dropped or suspended in the past five years.'

'A male University of Southern California student expelled for sexual assault appealed the decision on grounds that the adjudication process was wholly inadequate and stacked against him from the start. USC's Title IX coordinator responded with shocking hostility—bureaucrats don't like when their authority is questioned, it seems.

"Does that college motherfucker know who I am?" USC Title IX Director Gretchen Dahlinger Means asked Title IX Investigator Patrick Noonan, after a conference call during which the student, "John Doe," had explained his intention to appeal. It was a hot mic moment: Dahlinger and Noonan thought the student and his lawyer had already exited the call.

'New York, California, Connecticut and Illinois all expect college students to get the “affirmative consent” of their partners before having sex. Otherwise, it’s sexual assault under state law.

Many other colleges have voluntarily implemented “yes means yes” policies that automatically judge a student (usually male) responsible for sexual misconduct if his partner (usually female) says later that her apparent consent was not valid.

Those laws and rules badly misunderstand how students actually approach sex, according to research by a self-proclaimed feminist scholar at San Francisco State University’s Center for Research and Education on Gender and Sexuality.

'Atheist social-justice activist Richard Carrier believed the survivor – until the survivors and their allies in the atheism movement accused him of sexual harassment.

Now he’s threatening legal action against his accusers, his former blog network and the conference that banned him in the wake of allegations by Arizona State University student Amy Frank.

A former speaker to Secular Student Alliance chapters before that organization began investigating Frank’s claims, Carrier describes himself as a feminist and promotes an “intersectional” strain of atheism. Before the allegations, he was perhaps best known for arguing against the existence of an historical Jesus Christ.'

'In light of the Rolling Stone-University of Virginia libel lawsuit and other rape hoaxes across the U.S., The Women Against VAWA Excess (known as WAVE) issued a brief directed towards Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) and her rhetoric on sexual assaults.

In their brief, WAVE noted, “Gillibrand has no regard for the presumption of innocence and has repeatedly misrepresented the facts surround the issue.” Additionally, Wave pointed out how the criminal justice system’s purpose is to “reach a reliable determination of innocence and guilt,” while the Left’s rhetoric is to mostly ignore the due process rights of the accused. Gillibrand also called Columbia University student Emma Sulkowicz a “survivor,” whereby WAVE countered and said, “the accused student had been cleared by the campus committees and the local DA refused to take on the case.”'

'On April 4, 2011, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) released a document dramatically reinterpreting Title IX, the federal law that prohibits gender discrimination in colleges and universities that receive federal funds. The document issued by the OCR was a “Dear Colleague” letter, an allegedly informal agency guidance that Department of Education officials claimed did not need to follow notice-and-comment rulemaking pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act.

'College students accused of sexual assault in Minnesota — most of whom are male — have something new to fear besides false or exaggerated accusations: Anonymous reporting.

A new law taking effect this week requires all colleges and universities in the North Star State to allow students to anonymously report sexual assault. The intentions are noble — many victims of sexual assault are naturally afraid to come forward, so allowing them to do so anonymously through the Internet could be helpful. But as with many good intentions, the consequences (which were probably not even considered) can be awful.
...
And that's bad for the accused, who already have limited to no due process rights on a college campus. Now they can be accused and have no idea, and potentially be investigated without ever knowing the identity of their accuser, giving them no ability to properly defend themselves or confront their accuser.'

'The Pennsylvania Coalition Against Domestic Violence (PCADV) has placed billboards around the state, including two in the Harrisburg area, to raise awareness.

The billboards are located on 322 near Mushroom Hill Road, and another along Jonestown Road. The goal is to engage men to become more active in the prevention of domestic violence.

PCADV is asking men to initiate conversations with children, especially with boys about healthy relationships.

According to the PCADV, 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will be a victim of domestic violence, sexual assault or stalking. One in 3 teens will be a victim of dating violence.'

A nice article in Breitbart. Excerpt:

'At the start of July, the second International Conference on Men’s Issues was held at the ExCel centre in London, two years after the inaugural conference in Detroit. Jointly hosted by A Voice for Men and the British political party Justice for Men and Boys, men from all around the world flocked to the centre to hear people discuss real issues that affected them.

The ICMI is one of the only places where issues that affect men and boys are even recognised as being legitimate – it is safe to say that the wider society has no real grasp of the seriousness of such pressing issues as male suicide, domestic violence against men, false rape accusations and many others.

Men’s Rights Activists (more commonly known as MRAs) have an undeserved reputation in mainstream society; they are commonly portrayed as misogynists, bigots, and generally strange individuals, who sit at home in their mothers’ basements fawning over anime characters in their fedoras and trenchcoats.

'President Barack Obama penned a column for Glamour magazine declaring that he is a feminist, and urging all men to join him.

Citing his own two daughters, Obama explained that it was important for them to see their dad as someone who supports them in the face of challenges that they face as women.

"Yes, it’s important that their dad is a feminist, because now that’s what they expect of all men,” he wrote in an essay running more than 1,500 words.

Obama complained that there were still so many “gender stereotypes” in today’s culture, an issue that he grew more sensitive about as a father.

“[Y]ou become even more aware of how gender stereotypes pervade our society,” he said. “You see the subtle and not-so-subtle social cues transmitted through culture.”'

'Oh, clearly you didn't think the little snowflake justice warriors everywhere, from the LAist to Flavorwire to Jezebel to Teen Vogue to Vulture, were going to let this innocuous piece go unnoticed without having a hissy fit? Oh yes, most deliciously, the little snowflakes got so pissed off and were just sooo unbelievably offended by this piece, that they had to denounce it. Oh, little snowflakes, when did you all become grandmothers and society matrons, clutching your pearls in horror at someone who has an opinion about something, a way of expressing themselves that's not the mirror image of yours, you snivelling little weak-ass narcissists? The high moral tone from social justice warriors is always out of scale with what they are indignant about. When did this hideous and probably nerve-wracking way of living begin transforming you into the authoritarian language police, with your strict set of little rules and manufactured outrage, demanding apologies from every sandwich or salad you didn't like?

'A judge has rejected the claim of a lawyer defending a woman who was convicted of a string of sexual offences against a nine-year-old girl that she should not face jail time because the “shame” brought on herself and her family is punishment enough.

Raheelah Dar, 43, from Middlesborough, was convicted of three counts of indecent assault and two of indecency with a child, which she denied. She was jailed for seven years at a sentencing hearing on Tuesday.

She was accused of isolating, manipulating and molesting the girl, who is now an adult and cannot be named for legal reasons, in a case of abuse that spanned four years, Gazette Live reported.'
