'Equality also means ensuring women’s economic security — and I am pleased that a majority of the record 13 million jobs we have added to our economy since I took office are held by women. We are working to ensure women have access to opportunities in sectors like manufacturing and construction, where women have long been underrepresented. I also signed an Executive Order to eliminate discriminatory pay practices and advance pay equity. I have fought for safe and healthy workplaces, including by signing into law long-overdue protections for pregnant, postpartum, and nursing workers. I signed an Executive Order with the most comprehensive set of actions ever to support caregivers and expand child- and long-term care, and we have made other historic investments in affordable child care while requiring firms that receive significant Federal dollars to ensure that high-quality child care is available so parents can actually take the new jobs that we are creating.'

'Scientists have fully sequenced the Y chromosome for the first time, uncovering information that could have implications for the study of male infertility and other health problems.

The first attempt to determine the building blocks of our genetic code took place 20 years ago, but there were still significant gaps left in the sequences of all 23 pairs of human chromosomes. Those blanks were largely filled in last year by an international group of 100 scientists called the Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T) Consortium.

However, over half of the sequences within the Y chromosome, the smallest and most complicated of the 46 human chromosomes, remained unknown. Now, the same group of researchers has filled in the missing information, publishing a complete Y chromosome sequence Wednesday in the journal Nature.'

'Her honey’s got money — but her love of his funds is making feminists freak.

Slanderous digs like “gold digger,” “delusional” and “money dog,” are being savagely slingshotted at a self-crowned femininity influencer who — while praising her husband for his deep pockets — virally encouraged women against dating guys without green.

But her unsolicited advice just isn’t clicking with keyboard critics.

“Daily reminder to never date broke men,” urged TikTok tastemaker Sofia Kralow, based in Dubai, in the on-screen text of her controversial clip.

The trending footage, which has stacked up over 1.3 million views, features the brunette being lavished with helicopter rides, designer accessories, luxury cars and wads of cash via husband Thomas Kralow, an affluent hedge fund manager and YouTuber.'

'Spain's government has started the legal proceedings seeking to suspend president of the Spanish football federation (RFEF) Luis Rubiales after he refused to resign after a week of growing pressure following his unsolicited kiss of Spain player Jenni Hermoso.

Rubiales, 46, announced the surprise move -- after widespread reports that he planned to quit -- in a speech in which he attempted to justify his behaviour, and lashed out at critics, during an extraordinary meeting of the federation's general assembly.

"The government starts today the procedure so that Mr Rubiales has to give explanations before the Sport Court and if the Sport Court agrees, I can announce that we will suspend Mr. Rubiales from his functions," Victor Francos, head of the state-run National Sports Council told a news conference on Friday.

'Facing his possible removal from office, the president of the Spanish soccer federation refused to resign Friday despite the uproar he caused when he kissed a player on the lips without her consent after the Women’s World Cup final.

Luis Rubiales is under immense pressure to leave his post because of his conduct after Spain’s 1-0 victory over England on Sunday. Criticism has steadily mounted, with Spain’s acting prime minister, players’ unions, Spain’s women players, and even voices from inside men’s soccer saying he must go.

But Rubiales was defiant at an emergency general assembly of the federation.

“I won’t resign,” he declared four times in quick succession. He claimed he was a victim of a witch hunt by “false feminists.”'

'A total of 689,308 divorces occurred in 2021. Approximately half of all first marriages end in divorce, with subsequent marriages failing at even higher rates. When a couple divorces, they must state grounds for divorce in court. This is the reason for ending the marriage and dictates the type of divorce being filed.

Most people choose a no-fault divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. With that in mind, irreconcilable differences are indeed a common divorce cause, with 31 percent of couples who ended their marriages reporting that incompatibility was the reason.

'I began reading the article by Humza Yousaf, Scotland’s first minister, with a feeling of hope as the issue of misogyny was being tackled by such a prominent UK politician (Misogynists like Andrew Tate hold sway over thousands of men and boys. Male leaders like me must address that, 15 August). But I was disappointed by its bland virtue-signalling and lack of any real substance.

It’s not enough to ask men simply to reflect. Most men are already on the side of preventing suffering by women and girls, but many are unaware how language or actions they haven’t noticed may be interpreted. We do need to discuss the problems at times, to educate men and boys about the behaviours that make women feel uncomfortable, but specifics are important rather than general man-shaming.

'Elsewhere, labour rights leaders recently won a big lawsuit requiring one of the nation’s largest bus makers, New Flyer, to hire more women and minorities in places such as California and Alabama, as part of a transition to battery power funded by the Biden infrastructure bill. Building trade unions say many more women are signing up for training programmes, as employers in tight labour markets make efforts to accommodate work and childcare schedules.

While women are moving into traditionally male work, the trend is not going the other way. There’s a body of social science showing that while women will take manufacturing jobs for higher wages, men — particularly white men — are less likely to move into, say, nursing, even if they would earn more there than in manual labour.'

'In the “most masculine community on earth,” not only do servicewomen contend with undue interest from their male counterparts, they also encounter hostility from jealous spouses and “benevolent sexism” that can keep them off of deployments and training ops due to perceived fragility. Female soldiers, still an extreme minority in the special operations community, report that they’re called out and excluded due to their status as parents; their perception as too stern or too friendly; and even their decision to wear yoga pants, a ubiquitous activewear staple for millions of women. Those are some of the key findings from an internal study by U.S. Army Special Operations Command on barriers to service for women in the ranks.'

'United States women's national team forward Megan Rapinoe said the kiss that Spain football federation chief Luis Rubiales planted on the lips of Women's World Cup champion Jenni Hermoso marred Spain's success and signals a "deep level of misogyny and sexism in that federation and in that man."

Spain's victory over England at the Women's World Cup was overshadowed by the forced kiss during the medal ceremony following the final. After claiming that those who criticized his kiss were "idiots and stupid people," the RFEF president was forced to apologize on Monday.

There was another picture that signals such a deep level of misogyny and sexism in that federation and in that man [Rubiales] at the final whistle, just grabbing his crotch," Rapinoe said in an interview published on Tuesday in The Atlantic.

"What kind of upside-down world are we in? On the biggest stage, where you should be celebrating, Jenni has to be physically assaulted by this guy.

'The only male member of an NHS health visitor team has won a sex discrimination case after his female boss told him to 'man up' in front of a room full of women.

Senior manager Lisa Sanchez deliberately excluded Pete Marsh when saying 'goodbye ladies' as she was leaving a meeting because of a 'growing animus' towards him, an employment tribunal ruled.

Mr Marsh - who has worked in the health service for more than 20 years - said he had grown tired of being the 'butt of jokes' about being the only man in the team.

The tribunal ruled that this culture had been tolerated by bosses including head of service Ms Sanchez, who was found to have joined in with the remarks.

Now, after his internal complaints of bullying were rejected, Mr Marsh has successfully sued the NHS for sex discrimination and is in line for compensation.'

'Some boys and young men are being exposed to harmful messages about women and what it means to be a man — narratives that have to be countered before they lead to misogyny and intimate partner violence, the head of a London agency says.

Changing Ways, a non-profit that works with men who have been charged with domestic violence, as well as those trying to find non-abusive ways to resolve conflict, has just received $97,000 from the United Way to create programs that target men and boys.

'A progressive higher education group is facilitating strategies to replace “older, White and male” college presidents with women and people of color.

Within the next 10 years, American Council on Education leaders said they want to see schools implement new programs that promote race and gender “equity” among academic leaders, an Aug. 11 news release states.

During a two-day summit this month, the council brought together academics, administrators and education advocacy groups to brainstorm new ways to achieve that goal, the release states.'

''Wokeness' was created in the United States, then swiftly exported to the rest of the Western world. In Ireland, a country with close ancestral ties to the U.S., ‘wokeness’ now reigns supreme. In fact, it’s safe to say that Ireland is the official ‘woke’ capital of Europe.

If you doubt this, let me point you in the direction of the country’s new draft curriculum for 15- to 18-year-olds. As first reported by Gript, the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NCCA), the Irish education ministry’s advisory council, has recommended the introduction of classes that center around white privilege, male privilege, gender identity, and sexual diversity.
