'The freakout on the left continued Thursday with New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez blaming sexism for Kamala Harris’ presidential election loss — as she warned it will be a “scary” time in America under “the fascist” Donald Trump.

“This is going to be a very, very, very, challenging difficult time … for millions of people in this country. This is going to be a very scary time,” AOC said in an extended, funereal Instagram video from the kitchen of her home.

“I’m not here to sugarcoat what we are about to experience.”'

'Germany's government has given the green light to a draft law that paves the way for the return of national service.

The legislation will allow Berlin to gauge the willingness of the country's 18-year-olds to serve in Germany's army, the Bundeswehr.
...
Under the model proposed by the German government, all men turning 18 – which is estimated to be about 300,000 in 2025 – will have to fill out a digital survey on their interest in joining the army.

Young women will also be sent the survey but are not obliged to fill out the form.'

'Liberal women have sworn to go on sex strike over Donald Trump’s election win.

Mr Trump swept to victory in Tuesday’s presidential race that Democrats cast as a referendum on abortion rights and protections for women.

Some women are now threatening to punish men for voting for Trump, taking inspiration from a Korean feminist movement that vows to withhold sex from men in order to redefine the gender power balance.'

'A woman who abducted and sexually assaulted a 14-year-old girl has been jailed for breaching a court order.

Phoebe Pearce, 25, from Newport, groomed the schoolgirl, who was aged 14 at the time, after meeting her through Facebook two years ago.

She was warned off by the teenager's mum but Pearce lured the girl away from her home to have sexual activity with her while she was on police bail.

A court heard Pearce texted a friend saying the girl was "youngish but I don't care".

In September 2022, Pearce admitted grooming, abduction and sexual activity with a child at a Cardiff Crown Court hearing.

Judge Jeremy Jenkins said the relationship "quickly turned into a sexual one".'

'The commentator next took aim at the hateful claims Michelle Obama made as she stumped for Harris when Obama told blacks that if they didn’t vote for Harris, they were essentially race traitors.

“If we don’t agree with you, we’re against you?” the exasperated Smith asked. “How do you think the men felt about that? So we have to do what you tell us to do; otherwise, we’re anti-you? You thought that worked? Do y’all know anything about most men? You think that’s going to work?”'

'Jed Handelsman Shugerman, a prominent law professor at Boston University, argued Wednesday that the reason Donald Trump won and Kamala Harris lost the 2024 presidential race is due to “toxic masculinity” and “white supremacy.”

“Anyone blaming Harris or Walz today has utterly lost the plot & missed the point. This is fundamentally about America, toxic masculinity, & white supremacy. Blaming Harris would be part of that problem, not the solution,” the professor posted on X early Wednesday morning. “She deserves our thanks. Thank you, @vp @KamalaHarris.”

In a follow-up post, he argued Harris “ran a solid, energetic, inspiring, strategic, & disciplined campaign in less time than anyone in modern US history. You made us proud to be on the right side of history and the humane side of humanity.”'

'Anne-Marie Duff has discussed her experience of raising a son, and said she does not like the term “toxic masculinity”.

The Bad Sisters actor, 54, parents a teenage son, Brendan, with her ex-husband James McAvoy, who she met on the set of the British comedy-drama Shameless.

Speaking about bringing up a boy and the discourse around young men, she told The Observer Magazine: “I think the rhetoric around it is frustrating sometimes. Like, I don’t love the expression ‘toxic masculinity’, because masculinity is a describing noun, isn’t it? Is all masculinity toxic? It’s like saying, ‘pathetic femininity’.”

She added: “My worry is that there are a lot of young boys who think it’s innate.”

Duff then pointed to “a very sad story” a friend had recently told her about a 13-year-old boy they knew who was having counselling because he thought there was an inevitability about him becoming a rapist.

“We have to be so careful with our young people,” she said.'

'You have probably heard that the Democratic party is falling out of favor with men. All the evidence shows this to be true, especially with young men in the 18-29 age group who have been migrating en masse to the Republican party in recent election cycles. From the 2016 Trump-Clinton race to now, the percentage of these voters that identify or lean Democrat has taken a nosedive from 51 percent to 39 percent. The reasons for this shift are many and I am positive that the experience boys are having in school is a contributing factor.
...
Imagine that girls (and even some teachers!) wear t-shirts to school that say “the future is female” or “girls rule, boys drool.” On the one hand, this is hardly a big deal. On the other hand, boys would never be allowed to wear anything that claimed the opposite. The message of derision and contempt is kind of baked in and that takes a toll after a while.

Why is it so hard to advocate for the problems of boys and men? If truly we care about half of the population flourishing and living lives they enjoy, why is it so unpopular to talk about the challenges they're facing?

Expect to learn what George thinks the current world of advocacy for men looks like, why the press struggles to define what “healthy masculinity” is, the lessons we can learn from the rise of the Manosphere, the hidden effects of bullying on boys' mental health, whether White Guys For Harris actually helped men and much more.

'When Houston Porter, a 28-year-old law student at Pace University, first walked into the college auditorium last month, he was surprised to see a packed house for the “Saving Women’s Sports” panel he was co-moderating.

“Our events normally don’t get that kind of turnout,” says Porter, a member of The Federalist Society, a conservative group that sponsored the panel at Pace’s law school in White Plains, New York. “So it was exciting.”

But not long after, Porter’s world started “crumbling down”—with at least one professor shouting at panelists and another allegedly rushing the stage, followed by a Title IX investigation that accuses him of having “aggressively pointed” at a transgender student and misgendering her. Now Porter faces the possibility of suspension, expulsion, and even being barred from practicing law.'

'But the picture of who is childless is changing. Recent research has found that it’s more likely to be men who aren’t able to have children even if they want them – in particular lower income men.

A 2021 study in Norway found that the rate of male childlessness was 72% among the lowest five percent of earners, but only 11% among the highest earners – a gap that had widened by almost 20 percentage points over the previous 30 years.

Robin Hadley is one of those who wanted to have a child but struggled to do so. He didn’t go to university and went on to become a technical photographer in a university lab, based in Manchester, and by his 30s, he was desperate to be a dad.'

'From the boardroom to the workplace, it’s been a horrible year for women. And one of the worst places has been Australia.

Company boards — still overwhelmingly male — are failing to meaningfully hold executives accountable for bad behavior. Large institutional investors must double down on insisting diversity in the C-suite is non-negotiable, as gender-parity initiatives stall.

Or have we? The corporate world is run by a network of old boys whose connections are forged at single-sex private schools. Women continue to be subjected to violence at home at such a rate that the prime minister declared it a “national crisis” after a spate of killings earlier this year. Unwanted and aggressive attention on a night out is far too common.

'A Kraaifontein man has won a High Court battle to relinquish his parental rights after discovering he was not the biological father of his daughter. He had been paying maintenance for years.

The judgment by Judge James Dumisani Lekhuleni revealed how the man had discovered the truth of his ex-wife’s extramarital affair on WhatsApp. In the application, the father, who is unnamed to protect the child, sought relief from the court after paternity tests revealed the truth.'

'Former President Barack Obama’s recent scolding of Black men for not considering a woman, Democrat Kamala Harris, a viable presidential candidate, has been much debated. What hasn’t been debated, and should be, speaks to a larger issue among many young men of all races.

Obama’s accusation that misogyny was at play — a fraught, oversimplified one — overlooks deeper trends and factors. Many young men of all races feel alienated from not just the Democratic Party itself but from a culture and future that doesn’t seem to include or welcome them.
