'This might be the one time pay inequality worked out well for the women.

A group of Utah high school students hosted a bake sale earlier this week selling cookies to men for $1, while the same cookies were sold to women for 77 cents.

"Because in America, for every dollar a man makes, a woman only makes 77 cents," Kari Schott, a member of the Young Democrats Club at Jordan High School in Sandy, Utah, told Good4Utah.com. "So we're raising awareness for this. So boys will pay a dollar and girls only pay 77 cents."

Not everyone at the school appreciated the price difference, with some calling into question the accuracy of the statistic.

"On social media, on Facebook people got really mad, like they came up and talked to me," Schott said.

"They didn't think it was fair and I said yeah, it's not fair. That's why we're doing it," she concluded.'

'Since 1979, the report says, the number of women going to college has accelerated relative to male enrollments. By 2012, there were 2.8 million more women than men in college, and by 2020 this “enrollment gap” is projected to grow to 4.4 million as women account for 74 percent of enrollment growth.

In 2000, the adult populations of college-educated men and women were approximately equal. By 2013, there were 4.9 million more women 25 or older with college degrees than men in that age group. This means a shortage of suitable male partners for a growing cohort of young women, who are postponing family formation. The report says millions of female-led households are being established by women who, being focused on their careers, are delaying motherhood, partly because of a shortage of suitable partners. More about suitability anon.

Susan Patton, a Princeton graduate ... in a letter to the Daily Princetonian, she told “the young women of Princeton” what “you really need to know that nobody is telling you.” Which is that their future happiness will be “inextricably linked” to the men they marry, so they should “find a husband on campus” because “you will never again have this concentration of men who are worthy of you.” She explains:

'“The Hunting Ground,” a newly released documentary about sexual assault on college campuses, is earning rave reviews, drawing the attention of D.C. lawmakers and could even have an effect on the upcoming NFL draft. Though currently showing in just a few theaters, it will reach reach a huge audience by the end of the year when it is shown on CNN. But the way the film handles sexual assault statistics and individual allegations of rape raises three crucial questions about whether the film warrants the effusive response it has garnered.

'Victoria's chief of homicide has admitted that the only place where women are not vulnerable to acts of violence is inside a man-proof vault. In the wake of another random stabbing, this time in a Melbourne park, he has recommended that each woman be issued a vault by the government.

"We've tried everything to tackle the problem of male violence. Telling women not to go out, telling them not to dress too sexy, telling them to use the buddy system," said the Inspector. "I can't see any other way except telling women to live inside tiny reinforced vaults."

Feminist groups have reacted to the proposal with fatigue. "Well, at least he didn't tell us to scream constantly at the top of our lungs again," said a women's sector spokesperson. "And it's not as bad as the time he told us to piss ourselves. That's really uncomfortable and it only works on bears."'

“Suggestion: we don’t have to vaporize all the guns. Let’s just vaporize white men’s guns,” Grimes tweeted, linking to an article about Arizona shooter Ryan Giroux.

“White guys cannot be trusted to use guns responsibly. It is time to stop giving guns to white guys,” Grimes added. ”I mean, it’s time to stop giving guns to everybody, but we can start with the white guys.”

'A former undergraduate student sued Cornell University, alleging the Ivy League school wrongly accused him of forcing himself on a female student.

The lawsuit, filed Thursday by a man referred to as John Doe, is the latest to be brought against a school amid a crackdown on campus sexual assaults. It contends Cornell violated his due-process rights when the school concluded he raped a fellow student after a party in December 2013 and then withheld his diploma.

The suit says the Ithaca, N.Y., university “cherry-picked witness statements,” “ignored important…statements” and judged the credibility of witnesses “without any ascertainable rationale or logic.”

A spokesman for Cornell declined to comment.

Since the start of last year, more than two dozen men have sued colleges and universities over such cases, largely alleging that the schools’ disciplinary processes are stacked against them. The number is a dramatic jump from just a few years ago.

'A student at Reed College has been banned from class for denying the existence of “rape culture” in the United States and arguing that the oft-repeated statistic that one in five women are raped at college is bogus.

Jeremiah True, 19, received an email from professor Pancho Savery on March 14 telling him he was making his classmates so uncomfortable that he was no longer welcome to participate in the “conference” sections of his Humanities 110 class, a course which focuses on the art and literature of classical Greece, according to BuzzFeed News.

True says he sparred with his classmates on a variety of issues, but says it was his criticism of the 1-in-5 rape statistic that ended up being the tipping point.

'The father of a baby girl whose mother took her out of Canada against his wishes last year is suing the RCMP for negligence, alleging the force helped her to commit a criminal offence.

"I'm just so angry. I just can’t imagine anyone would ever do this to somebody else," said Craig Johnstone, 28, an electrician from North Vancouver.

Richmond RCMP let the mother leave, even though they had removed her from a flight the previous night for suspected parental abduction. She was trying to move to Australia with their Canadian-born daughter, who was six months old at the time.
...
The now worthless court order had ordered the RCMP to seize her passport, along with the baby's.

He and his family are devastated over losing the little girl. He said he’s only seen her three times in 10 months – short, awkward visits in Australia.

"It hurts me — but it hurts my daughter much more," he said. "I had a lot of faith in the court system and the judicial system but now I have none. None whatsoever.”

'A bill in the legislature has the Nebraska State Bar crying sexism. LB 358*, introduced by Sen. Tommy Garrett, addresses custodial rights to a child in cases of sexual assault. It offers several amendments to current Nebraska laws.

"(It) only further perpetuates this myth that only men abuse, only women are victims and that's just not the case. So the way that it's written is unconstitutional because it's not gender neutral," attorney Chris Johnson said.

'Kyle Rainer and Brandy Buchanon had a 6-year-old child, B.L.G.R. The child “lived with Mother, but visited with Father on Sundays.” In early 2014, though, mother filed a petition in court alleging domestic violence on father’s part. Part of the allegations were that he had angrily yelled at her, scaring her and the daughter. Part was that he had “head-butted” the daughter. But the mother also introduced evidence about

"certain images that were posted on his Facebook page. Among the images were a picture of a “scary” clown, a photograph of Father’s living room where a Walking Dead doll can be seen, and a picture of a head of hair with horns projecting from it."

The family court had earlier entered a stay-away domestic violence order, and “prior to allowing introduction of the Facebook images, the family court indicated that it was going to partially grant Father’s motion and amend the DVO down from ‘no contact’ to ‘no violent contact.’” But “[a]fter considering the Facebook posts,” the court changed its mind on the amendment, and kept the order as it was.

The court of appeals disagreed, and reversed the restraining order altogether (Rainer v. Buchanon (Ky. Ct. App. Mar. 13, 2015), or go here and search for “clown”):

'“RAPE CULTURE DOES NOT EXIST” reads a sign hanging up all over campus. A triggering exclamation of an opinion or fact?

On March 13, ZenMen held an event to emphatically state that it was absolutely a fact. The event was split into two parts: one part presentation and one part “open discussion.” The presentation, given by ZenMen president Sage Gerard, was a short presentation wherein Gerard hoped that if his audience walked away taking nothing else, that they could walk away accepting that rape culture did not exist.

Gerard recognizes that rape is a crime that is committed, but believes that the idea of a culture built around rape is a product of hysteria and confirmation bias.

Gerard believes that buying into rape culture is not beneficial for anyone by making all men criminals and all women victims.

Gerard believes falsely that feminists only recognize (cisgender) men as perpetrators of rape and sexual assault and only (cisgender) women as victims of rape and sexual assault.
