'The Young Conservatives of Texas at Texas Tech and the Young Americans for Liberty have teamed up to host a Milo Yiannopoulos lecture from 7 to 8 p.m. today in the Red Raider Lounge in the Student Union Building.
Yiannopoulos is a man who has become known for his opinions on what some call controversial topics. Many people have become angered or offended by what he said both on Twitter and on Breitbart, a conservative news website Yiannopoulos writes for.
He is currently on a speaking tour called the “Dangerous Faggot Tour,” where he covers topics such as gay rights, feminism and conservatism.'
'Superpowers aside, the Powerpuff Girls are a lot more relatable than you think. They bicker just like you and your sisters do, and they also have to stand up to some pretty terrifying foes. No, we're not talking about evil, radioactive monkeys. We mean overgrown misogynists. Meet Townsville's newest villain. His name is, aptly, Manboy.
In the newest clip for the show, our tiny antagonist reveals that he has, "all the power of a man in the body of a boy." Sounds about right. Though his most impressive evil skill is the ability to grow a beard on command, that isn't quite a match for our girls. Nor should it be. If you had any doubts as to whether Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup could be feminist icons for a new age, please take a seat before they kick your butt, too.'
'If we want men to become better fathers, why not help them learn how they can be?
And why not do it before they fall into the very traps that produce countless bad fathers?
Those two concepts seem pretty logical, especially in a city like Jacksonville. But historically they are concepts that have rarely been embraced by many local programs that have been launched to foster better fatherhood in our community.
Too often these programs are only available to men after they’ve been in jail and released. Or they’re offered only after men have become entwined in the court system for failing to provide child support.'
'"A mother-of-two has revealed she has chosen to only date married men - not to wreck marriages but because she feels no man can be trusted.
Jenny Hendle, 36, from Tunbridge Wells, Kent, is a serial dater with a difference - she refuses to give single guys the time of day.
Twice-divorced Jenny has already dated nine married men - and says she feels no guilt about seeing other women's husbands.
The bakery worker said: 'I believe there are no loyal and honest men, they don't exist. I have no interest in dating single men who will promise me the world then cheat on me.
'When I start to date a married man there is never any pretense of falling in love or long-term commitment."
...
She said: 'As a teenager I saw my dad persistently cheat on my mum. It was heartbreaking. We all knew it was happening and it broke my mum's heart.
'More than 13,000 Amazon customers are calling on Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos to ‘Dump Trump,’ signing a petition that requests Amazon stop carrying the GOP frontrunner’s Donald J. Trump menswear collection.
A women’s rights organization, UltraViolet, created the petition.
“As an Amazon customer, I am deeply disappointed that you have yet to sever your business relationship with Donald Trump,” the letter reportedly states. “His hatred should have no place in the Amazon marketplace.”
After discussing crime caused by illegal immigrants during his presidential announcement, Trump suffered backlash from several companies that broke business ties with the billionaire.
KCPQ notes that even if Amazon stopped carrying Trump’s products, the retailer would still make a profit from other Trump campaign merchandise.
'So... don't even think about it! Iggy Azalea directly addressed her fiancé Nick Young's high-profile cheating scandal in an interview this past weekend, and threatened to take drastic measures against the NBA player if he was unfaithful to her.
The host of Wild 94.1's Orlando & The Freakshow explained to Azalea that there are two different kinds of basketball wives: those who spy on their superstar athlete husbands and those who are fine with their significant others sleeping with other women. Azalea quickly placed herself in the former category.
'He was arrested on charges of raping a Chinese national days after the December 16 gangrape. However, it took for him over four years to prove his innocence and walk out of jail but not without the stigma of being a rapist.
The 28-year-old was acquitted by a Delhi court in March but the case has left a deep scar on him as he faced the wrath of the raging furore of the Nirbhaya rape.
Working as an event organiser and with a career in modeling, the man had met a Chinese national through a contact, who had come to Delhi for an internship through a non-profit organisation.
'Is it true that 1 in 5 women are raped on America's college campuses? If so, what does that say about our universities and the people who run them? If not, how did that statistic get into the mainstream? Caroline Kitchens, Senior Research Associate at the American Enterprise Institute, looks at the data and explains the very significant results.'
'Facebook have been throwing the ban hammer and banning several pages that are against feminism.
Last week our page “Anti-Feminism Australia” (45,000 likes) was unpublished by Facebook with an “appeal” button. I appealed it and waited patiently for a day. The next day I woke up to find that the page had been completely deleted without any notice or warning from facebook. It was just lucky that I had managed to backup all the photos containing our memes before the page vanished. I believe this was a result of feminists mass reporting all pages against feminism. It appears as though facebook are now siding with feminists in censoring anything that goes against their ideology.
Today I received some news that the popular page “Exposing Feminism” had also been unpublished by facebook. At the time of writing this, they are currently waiting the appeal, but knowing what happened to Anti-Feminism Australia, its unlikely they will be successful.'
'Fifty years ago, life on campus was pretty dull. Student behaviour was tightly (if not always successfully) regulated by curfews, single-sex dorms and no-alcohol rules. All these prohibitions were meant to ensure that immature young adults wouldn’t get into too much trouble.
My generation got rid of all that. We insisted on autonomy. We did not want authorities regulating our conduct. Social norms changed dramatically. The culture became hypersexualized. Casual sex on campus, once uncommon, is now no big deal. Alcohol is ubiquitous. And now, students (as well as parents, activists and governments) are demanding that universities once again take up the burden of providing for their charges’ mental, emotional and physical welfare – without the former restrictions on sex, booze and behaviour, of course.'
'Every year the National Committee on Pay Equity (NCPE) publicizes its “Equal Pay Day” to bring public attention to the gender pay gap. According to the NCPE, “Equal Pay Day” will fall this year on April 12, and allegedly represents how far into 2016 women will have to continue working to earn the same income that the men earned last year, supposedly for doing the same job. Inspired by Equal Pay Day, I introduced “Equal Occupational Fatality Day” in 2010 to bring public attention to the huge gender disparity in work-related deaths every year in the United States. “Equal Occupational Fatality Day” tells us how many years into the future women will be able to continue to work before they will experience the same number of occupational fatalities that occurred for men in the previous year.
Story here. Despite the severity of her insane behavior, the female discount is applied and she gets a suspended sentence. Justice denied - again. Excerpt:
'A JILTED lover has become the first woman to be convicted of victimising a man by using revenge porn after posting explicit images of him online without his consent.
Saleswoman Ellie Melaugh, 20, was said to have turned her ex’s life into a ‘nightmare’ after uploading the pictures to his Facebook and Twitter.
She is believed to be the first female found guilty of a crime under revenge porn legislation introduced a year ago.
The images were posted alongside his name and full address and were seen by the victim’s mother and grandparents as well as countless online strangers.
She also set up a fake profile on dating site Plenty of Fish to humiliate him as well as calling him hundreds of times.
He was forced to repeatedly change his number to avoid contact from her and others.
'A new women-only ride-sharing service, Chariot for Women, is set to launch April 19 in Boston, Massachusetts.
Surprisingly, its founder is not a former female passenger who felt unsafe in an Uber—as many of us have—but Michael Pelletz, an Uber driver who had a revelation when he felt threatened by a passenger.
“What if I was a woman?” Pelletz, wrote on the company’s website. In fact, worries about safety are why his wife Kelly—who is now Chariot for Women’s president—decided not to drive for Uber, he said.
'A high school teacher in east Texas was arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault on Friday after cellphone video allegedly shows her repeatedly slapping a student on the head.
According to the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office, the incident took place at Ozen High School near Beaumont, Texas. The teacher, Mary Hastings, was arrested on Friday and charged with misdemeanor assault. She immediately posted the $2500 bail and was released, pending her next court appearance.
'Alimony and custody reform in Florida hang in the balance at this very moment. The Legislature has passed a good bill, and now we wait to see if Governor Scott will sign it.
This may be your last, best chance to get meaningful reform in Florida. The only question is who is more motivated: the people of Florida or the special interests and their high-paid lobbyists. Make no mistake, the lobbyists are leaving no stone unturned to kill this bill. If we cannot muster the energy to make one simple phone call, we don't deserve to get reform. But how about the kids -- don't they deserve your phone call?'
