'Modern feminism encourages women to complain about men, the wage gap, and just about everything else as an attempt to somehow be taken seriously. In other words, modern feminism creates a complex relationship with men. Feminists love to hate men—and to hate when men respond with scorn.

Both are addressed in this essay, published Sunday in the New York Times, an excerpt from Jessica Valenti’s new memoir, “Sex Object,” which is out today. It reveals why the modern feminist movement has reached its peak and will soon plummet.

'Former New York Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor's wife has been arrested for domestic violence after a physical altercation in Florida, according to TMZ Sports.

Lynette Taylor, 42, was arrested Thursday on a count of domestic violence and a count of resisting arrest.

According to the report, Lawrence Taylor told police that Lynette hit him in the back of the head, leaving him with a minor laceration.

"That's a lie. My husband is a 300 pound linebacker,' she told authorities after the incident. A judge has ordered the two to stay at least 500 feet from each other.

Lynette Taylor has been arrested at least three times for violent crimes, though most of the charges were later dropped. The couple has been married for nine years and has two children together.'

'Actress Amber Heard, who filed for divorce from Johnny Depp last month, alleging verbal and physical abuse, herself was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence in 2009.

The King County, Washington, court clerk confirmed to People magazine Tuesday that Heard, 30, had appeared before a judge on Sept. 15, 2009, for what records call a “probable cause assault, domestic violence” hearing.

TMZ.com had reported earlier Tuesday that Heard and her then-domestic partner, photographer Tasya van Ree, argued on Sept. 14 at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Heard allegedly grabbed and struck van Ree on the arm, and was arrested and booked, the website said. No charges were filed.'

Right now, the Office for Civil Rights is stifling student and professor free speech, due process, and liberty rights in order to enforce a policy agenda.

This has to stop.

Fortunately, the Senate Homeland Security Committee is holding an oversight hearing on agency overreach this Thursday, June 9th, at 10:45 a.m. EST: http://www.hsgac.senate.gov/hearings/revisiting-the-appropriate-use-of-agency-regulatory-guidance

But let's not wait until then for your voice to be heard-- free speech is too important.

This moment, call the U.S. Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and ask to speak to your federal representatives. Tell them the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights (OCR) is a loose cannon that needs to be reigned in immediately.

Please call now and help protect the Constitution, in crisis on our campuses.

Very best,

'News that a university lecturers’ union has banned straight, white men from attending their equality conferences in a bid to create “safe spaces” is deeply depressing.

University and College Union equality conferences are held exclusively for women, LGBT, ethnic minorities or disabled people, and members must declare their “protected characteristic” when applying to attend.

Surely UCU can see the irony of hosting an equality conference where – as George Orwell wrote – some are more equal than others?'

'An Ontario cabinet minister announced on Monday that he would be stepping aside in order to make room for women, in an attempt to help his premier meet gender parity in her government.

But given that Ontario's cabinet is just 25 percent female, there's still a long way to go.

Ted McMeekin, a longtime provincial politician and currently the minister of municipal affairs and housing, made the announcement on Facebook, ahead of an anticipated cabinet shuffle in Canada's largest province.

"Like our Prime Minister, I've never been afraid to call myself a feminist. In fact, I've always been proud of being an honorary member of the Women's Caucus, and working for equality," he said in the statement. "But sometimes the best way for a man to advance the equality of women may be to step back and make room at the table. For me, this is such a time."'

'Even as critics of college sexual-assault investigations say that law enforcement should be more involved in the process, police themselves are adopting some of the more questionable recommendations of anti-rape activists, particularly that accusers should face little scrutiny and officers should limit their collection of evidence to stymie the accused.
...
The new program offers resources on “prosecutorial misconduct,” the effort within the American Law Institute to make rape a presumed-guilty crime, and an “Exoneree Honor Roll” of accused people who were exonerated of rape.'

Article here. Google the first para. to jump the paywall. Excerpt:

'The Education and Justice Departments have already gone far to subvert the norm that students accused of sexual assault retain individual rights. Now they are targeting the few rights that are left. Under new standards promulgated this spring, students can be punished before any disciplinary hearing has been held, and sometimes after anonymous allegations.
...
For the first time, the Justice Department has also explicitly introduced a “responsibility to investigate complaints of sexual harassment to determine whether a hostile environment exists that requires further action,” even if accusers remain anonymous.

This matters because a hostile environment can exist independently of the details of a specific case, and thus can be established by complaints that haven’t been corroborated and don’t qualify as traditional proof. Justice invokes “perceptions” as much as facts.'

'A New York Times reporter asked Bernie Sanders on Monday if it is sexist for him to continue running for president against what could be the nation’s first female president in Hillary Clinton.

Sanders bristled at the question but also laughed and asked if the reporter, Yamiche Alcindor, was being serious.

The exchange occurred after Sanders opened up his press conference in Emeryville, Calif. to questions from reporters. He pointed to one member of the press in the audience, but Alcindor appears to have jumped in with a question. Sanders attempted to cut her off, saying “excuse me” several times.'

'Hillary Clinton has a “Jekyll and Hyde” personality that left White House staffers scared stiff of her explosive — and even physical — outbursts, an ex-Secret Service officer claims in a scathing new tell-all.
...
The book claims she repeatedly screamed obscenities at her husband, Secret Service personnel and White House staffers — all of whom lived in terror of her next tirade.

Secret Service agents had discussions about the possibility that they would have to protect Bill from his wife’s physical attacks, Byrne writes, and the couple had one “violent encounter” the morning of a key presidential address to the nation.
...
Byrne describes arriving for work one day in 1995 following a loud fight between the Clintons the night before.

'Lynn University let a sexual-assault accuser bring her lawyer and repeatedly “intervene” in a conduct hearing, while the accused student’s adviser – his mother – had to remain silent, according to a federal lawsuit filed against the South Florida school last week.

The accused student, whose athletic and academic scholarships were revoked, said Lynn yanked him off the baseball team several weeks before his hearing. It then suspended him after ignoring its own policy on incapacitation.

In an unusual move for a due-process lawsuit, “John Doe” identifies his accuser by her real name, though it appears to be misspelled. He also identifies several student witnesses by their real names.'

'In a historic move, this year's Glastonbury Festival will feature a venue open only to women.

Named The Sisterhood, the spot will be hidden in the site's renowned Shangri-La area and is billed as an "intersectional, queer, trans and disability-inclusive space open to all people who identify as women".

Described as a "revolutionary clubhouse," the venue's staff, performers, and security will all be women.
...
"The producers of The Sisterhood believe that women-only spaces are necessary in a world that is still run by and designed to benefit mainly men," the venue's organisers said. "Oppression against women continues in various manifestations around the world today, in different cultural contexts.'

'An actual military draft has been out of commission for 43 years. But draft registration is still a stark reality for American men, who must sign up with the federal government like clockwork.

“The draft itself may never be reinstated, but men are still required to register for its possible use when they turn 18. Americans think women should do that too. By 50 percent to 35 percent they agree that women should also be required to register with the Selective Service System,” says Kathy Frankovic, an analyst for YouGov, which queried some 2,000 people on the issue.

'Zara Larsson is not afraid to tell you that she's a man-hater; in fact, she wears it as a badge of honor. For the budding pop star and Fuse First artist, feminism is a no-brainer issue, but calling for equal rights between men and women has somehow earned her a lot of Internet hate worldwide.

"It’s actually crazy how people can be so upset about something so basic when it comes to human rights,” the "Never Forget You" singer notes.'
