'Rape Culture Hysteria: Fixing the Damage Done to Men and Women offers a comprehensive overview and debunking of the "rape culture" myth that has devastated campuses and is spilling into Main Street America. An ideological madness is grotesquely distorting North America's view of sexuality. The book applies sanity to the claims that men are natural rapists and our culture encourages sexual violence.

Written by a libertarian feminist and rape survivor, Rape Culture Hysteria opens with a highly personal appeal to depoliticize rape and treat it instead as a crime. Victims need to heal. Politicizing their pain and rage is a callous political maneuver that harms victims, women and men.

Defend yourself and your children against rape culture zealots. Demand sanity.'

'Social media and activism are intrinsic parts of many Americans’ lives. But what if the cause an employee espouses is one which the employer disagrees with, or has concerns that it may interfere with business prospects? In the past, an employee’s private life may never have come to the attention the company. But with the rise of social media, few activities are truly private.

To be clear, the issue does not involve what an employee does while at work. It only concerns what the employee does in his own time and off company premises.
...
Concerns about employee free speech extend beyond examples where there may be a business interest involved. According to the National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR), much of the interest in employee free speech arose in April of 2014, when:

'On April 22, the Justice Department ordered the University of New Mexico adopt an unconstitutional speech code. It is demanding that the University label as “sexual harassment” all “unwelcome” sexual conduct, including “verbal” conduct (that is, speech). The university must encourage students to report it as such; and investigate it when it is reported.

'If you’re a sports fan (like me) who likes to watch the very best athletes engaged in the highest level of competition, then Daniela Brighenti’s recent article in the Yale Daily News won’t make a lot of sense to you.

Desiring to watch the best sporting events, you see, is merely a “societal (and cultural) bias” against women.'

'Six Connecticut police departments will “Walk A Mile In Her Shoes” on April 30 to bring awareness to domestic violence.

Event chairman and Fairfield Police Chief Gary MacNamara joined affiliate News 8’s Stephanie Simoni wearing high heels on their morning show. He plans to walk a mile in red peep-toe stilettos.

MacNamara says even though many women have brought awareness to the domestic, it’s important men also lead the conversation and be responsible role model for young boys.'

'WE OPEN on a young girl at a family gathering. A young boy, aged 10, rushes past with two friends — the girl follows.

As he walks through a doorway with two other young boys, he lets them pass through first before slamming it closed on the girl behind him, spilling her food.

Through a window in the door we see the boy smile cheekily. This girl’s mother helps her pick up her plate and consoles her.

“You’re OK, he just did it cause he likes you,” mum says.

This is the opening scene of the first video advertisement in the government’s new media blitz to combat disrespect towards women.

The one minute clip shows a series of scenes demonstrating accepted and casual sexist behaviour.

In one scene a boy’s father is seen to shout to his son not to “throw like a girl”. In another a trio of male teens snigger at a photo they take of a woman’s breasts.

'IN this era of women-only parking, women-only trains, women-only apartments and transgender bathrooms, it seems the only acceptable man is a man who wants to be a woman.

The job of pathologising masculinity continues apace.

There’s the government’s new domestic violence campaign which portrays little boys as aggressive misogynists.

There’s the undergraduate newspaper Honi Soit, which claims that rugby teams at private boys’ schools foster a “rape culture”.

Or what about the Sydney preschool which bans four-year-old boys from dressing up as Batman for fear superhero costumes will make them “violent”?

Yes, the only way men can find forgiveness for their dark, brute natures is to denounce other men, or otherwise to swap sexes, a la Caitlyn Jenner.'

'There's an old legal adage that good facts make good law, and bad facts make bad law. In the case of campus sexual assault, it may be that absurd facts will — eventually — make good law too.

About five years ago, the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights issued a letter that would change the face of campus sexual misconduct proceedings at colleges across the country.

The letter directed university administrators to judge allegations according to the lowest burden of proof available: the preponderance of the evidence, a mere 50.01% certainty that whatever the accuser claimed actually happened. It also highly discouraged cross-examinations, suggesting they might violate federal anti-discrimination law.'

Article here. Excerpt:

'A Georgia state lawmaker and his wife have filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Education and its Office for Civil Rights, alleging that it is trying to "micromanage student sex lives" with its regulations on how colleges and universities should handle allegations of sexual assault and harassment.

The lawsuit filed by State Rep. Earl Ehrhart and his wife, Virginia, on Thursday claims that a 2011 letter the department's civil rights arm sent to schools has effectively imposed binding regulations without going through the necessary administrative procedures.

The letter was meant to help schools understand their obligations under federal law to prevent and respond to sexual violence. Instead, it has imposed burdensome requirements on schools that accept federal funding "in what is essentially an attempt to micromanage student sex lives," the lawsuit says.'

Georgia state Rep. Earl Ehrhart and Mrs. Ehrhart have sued the US Dept. of Education over the infamous 2011 Dear Colleague letter. The lawsuit is available from the SAVE site here. Excerpt:

'The Dear Colleague Letter has aggressively dictated how colleges and universities handle sexual assault and sexual harassment on campus, by laying out specific requirements that schools must adopt and utilize, causing schools to brand more students “rapists” based on the excessively low “preponderance of the evidence” standard (equating to a mere 50.01% probability that the alleged misconduct occurred) as opposed to the “clear and convincing evidence” standard traditionally used in college disciplinary hearings, allowing accusers to appeal not guilty findings by disciplinary panels, and preventing accused students from challenging their accusers, even in cases in which the only witness is the complainant, out of concern that cross-examination “may be traumatic or intimidating” to the “victim,” all of which violate an accused student’s fundamental rights to due process.'

'It’s 2016, folks. Why are white heterosexual cis men still allowed to grow weed? I mean, come on.

That’s just a few steps away from the opinion of Zooey Zachrow, a male-to-female transgender and marijuana farmer discovered by Mitchell Sunderland of Vice. Zachrow told Sunderland that cisgender men who ran weed dispensaries “didn’t treat the plant with respect” — hence the decision to start her own business.

“[Weed] saved my life,” she says. “I absolutely wouldn’t have survived the years [after the army] without cannabis.” Because of her religious upbringing, she feared telling her mom about her new friend. One day, she sat her mom down to tell her she was coming out of the “cannabis closet.” Zachow says her mom started crying. “Whatever you’re doing, it works,” Zachow recalls her mom saying. She had seen pot calm Zachow, and she was happy she had found something to help treat the PTSD.

'The act of sex is not illegal. But if two members of the American Law Institute have their way, it will be — unless you follow their rules.

Law professors Stephen J. Schulhofer and Erin Murphy are trying to update the criminal code when it comes to sex offenses, believing current definitions of rape and sexual assault are antiquated. The focus of their draft is on what constitutes consent. It adopts the "yes means yes," or "affirmative consent" model that was passed in California last year.

The California law applies only to college campuses, however. Schulhofer and Murphy aim to take that definition of consent — which says that before every escalation of a sexual encounter, clear and convincing consent must be given — to the state or federal level. No one actually has sex this way, requesting permission and having it granted perhaps a dozen times in a single encounter.'

'They say that freedom of expression is dead on campus, and we’ve witnessed it first-hand.

We’re trying to seek justice, as we believe it is our right to contribute to the campus culture, and our responsibility to talk about men’s issues.

This is larger than our group.

Today, boys are failing in school and literacy rates are dropping. Men are committing suicide at disproportionate rates, dissuaded by the lack of support available to them. Other issues that often affect men and boys include homelessness, workplace injuries and death, lack of parental rights, and the increase in children being raised without fathers. Why is our attempt to explore these valid issues met with such hostility?

'I was in the middle of my summer class when my phone went off around 11:40 am on Thursday, July 18th, 2013. It was my ex-girlfriend. As I answered, I heard her voice insisting that I admit to perpetrating an incident of sexual misconduct against her. I was puzzled by her request and did not know how to respond.

A few minutes later I received a call from Darrin DeCoster, a Fairfax County, Virginia detective, who revealed the phone call was being recorded. Ordering me to not hang up, he threatened to arrest me on a “slew” of charges if I did not cooperate. As a 20-year-old in college, I was scared beyond imagination.

I was instructed to appear for an interview the next day at the Fairfax County Police Station. Since I was completely innocent, what did I have to fear? I assumed the police would conduct an unbiased investigation of the matter. That was before I heard about “victim-centered” investigations.
