'An act of retribution may have provoked a woman to brutally attack a third grader inside an Oakland elementary school bathroom, police say.

Students at Oakland’s Lafayette school knew something was wrong when they saw officers arrive at school Friday morning. They arrived to arrest Haseemah Diame, a parent and volunteer at the school.

Police say Diame walked onto the campus during recess armed with a hammer and pulled a 9-year-old girl aside.

“She was able to lure this other girl away from the play yard during recess into an adjacent bathroom there by the school. Once in the bathroom the adult proceeded to assault the girl with a hammer,” said school spokesman Troy Flint.

The attack was serious enough to draw blood.

“It’s very horrible because I wouldn’t want that happening to my kid,” said Antoniette Badio, a parent at the school.

'According to recent studies conducted by American researchers, men have lower principles of right and wrong compared to the fairer sex. Their research showed that men are very likely to compromise on their principles, resort to tactics that are ethically questionable, and tell bigger lies more often. Also, they have no qualms to compromise moral ethics in a bid to assert dominance to prove and defend their masculinity.

So, why do men have a fickle relationship with morality? Renowned Chennai-based psychologist Mini Rao explains, “Men are defined by their masculinity. And they take it way too seriously. ‘Be a man about it’ is a phrase that says it all. Their egos are far more fragile than women and they constantly need to prove they are right because it’s deeply etched in their minds that they can never be wrong.”

'However, there is another practice we are not currently discussing which also perpetuates inequality between men and women, and it is the opposite of 'mansplaining'; it is glossing over, it is keeping mum, it is censoring, it is male muting. It is when men do not correct women when they are wrong, whereas they would another man. It is when men do not call out women when they are bluffing or bullsh*ting something, whereas they would a man, without a second thought. It feels just as humiliating and just as degrading. A mansplainer assumes a woman knows less than he does. A male muter assumes a woman knows less than he does and thus feels no need to explain. Whereas the assumption for a mansplainer lies in a responsibility to explain something to the poor woman who just can't understand it, a male muter stays quiet because the poor woman probably won't understand it. It's nothing for her to worry her pretty little head about. Just as mainsplaining is subconscious, so too is male muting. It is not a conscious decision to stay quiet whereas one would not with a male, but occurs as a conditioned response.

'Dennis Spears balanced precariously in his shiny green high heels.

Clad in a full-length green dress, he was determined to complete his walk.

But Spears wasn't a runway model, or looking to accentuate the figure of his legs.

The military veteran was working, along with about 100 other men in attendance, to shatter gender stereotypes and raise awareness for domestic violence.

"I've seen abuse," Spears said. "These women and children need help. This gets attention. If you can get enough guys together in heels for this, you're going to draw attention."

Spears and his friend Tim Graham, maintenance supervisor at the YWCA, both wore full dresses in hopes of drawing increased donations at this year's Walk a Mile in Her Shoes event, hosted by the Flint Young Women's Christian Association in downtown Flint, Friday, May 30.'

'A proposed new law making its way through the California State Legislature would re-define the term "consensual sex" on California college campuses.

Recent statistics show one out of every five women on any college campus in California will be a victim of some form of sexual assault.

Senate Bill 967 would establish new rules for how public and private colleges deal with sexual assaults on campus.

The main difference from current practice is that responses must be victim centered and adopts the affirmative consent standard that means yes only means yes if its said out loud.

"Doesn't make a difference is you are a large campus, small independent college campus, public or private, you have to have a sense of uniformity", says Democrat State Senator and SB 967 co-author Kevin De Leon, "we have to have victim-centered oriented programs and policies so that that the victims are not re-victimized again."

'The University of Arkansas student accused of faking a sexual assault report pleaded not guilty Friday in Washington County.

Julia Garcia pleaded not guilty to filing a false police report and received a trial date of July 30 in Judge Mark Lindsay’s courtroom, according to the Washington County Prosecutor’s Office.

The suspect was arrested April 30 on suspicion of filing a false police report. She was released from the Washington County Detention Center without bond the same day, according to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office.

The woman told police April 27 she was sexually assaulted in the Garland Avenue parking garage on the University of Arkansas campus. Officers immediately began searching for her alleged assailant, a 6-foot-tall man with a muscular build, according to the University of Arkansas Police Department.

'With Democrats and the media gearing up to elect Hillary Clinton president, the obvious gameplan is to prep the battlefield by creating a cult of personality around women. If you are in any way paying attention, our cultural and media overseers seem to have coordinated a campaign where America is required to celebrate women simply because they don't sport a penis.

Women are awesome, just cuz.

'Hillary Clinton may not be much at administering the State Department, but she’s certainly a pro when it comes to expressing outrage at her own persecution. For the woman who is supposedly the world’s most powerful feminist, her sense of victimhood remains surprisingly strong. That’s never been more true than in her new book, Hard Choices, which points out that she – not the four men who died in Benghazi, Libya, on the night of September 11, 2012 – is the victim.

The Clinton camp reportedly leaked the 34-page Benghazi chapter of Hillary’s latest tome to favored outlet Politico. The portions quoted by Politico demonstrate an offputting self-pity and a false righteous indignation utterly at odds with Clinton’s actions as Secretary of State.

According to Politico, Clinton writes, “Those who exploit this tragedy over and over as a political tool minimize the sacrifice of those who served our country.” Of course, the sacrifice of those who served our country wouldn’t have been necessary if Clinton had done her basic duty in protecting diplomatic facilities overseas. And when it comes to politicizing Benghazi, it was the Obama administration that repeatedly lied for weeks to the American people about the source of the attacks to continue portraying President Obama as tough on terror during election season.
...
Questions that Hillary does not answer, of course. Questions like: Where were you? Why did you reject security? Why do you continue to insist that a YouTube video was to blame for the terrorist attacks?

'"There are currently 61.1 million American men in their prime working years, age 25–54. A staggering 1 in 8 such men are not in the labor force at all, meaning they are neither working nor looking for work. This is an all-time high dating back to when records were first kept in 1955. An additional 2.9 million men are in the labor force but not employed (i.e., they would work if they could find a job). A total of 10.2 million individuals in this cohort, therefore, are not holding jobs in the U.S. economy today. There are also nearly 3 million more men in this age group not working today than there were before the recession began," the Republicans on the Senate Budget Committee claim.

'This year National Parents Organization of Hawaii introduced several bills related to addressing abuses of the Child Support Enforcement Agency. We also introduced legislation HB2163 titled “Parental Parity” that would ensure equal time for both parents unless the court determined that it was not in the best interest of the child.

Two of the bills didn’t move, however, 3 of the bills moved through the house and senate with opposition from the Family Court Judges and the Child Support Enforcement Agency. The Joint Custody Bill language was weakened from Equal Time to “Shall consider frequent continuing and meaningful contact.” The change still moves the court toward more equitable time. We won’t know, however, how the court will implement the moderate change in the statute.'

'A concert organized by a men’s rights group on the Toronto Islands this weekend has been cancelled by the venue’s manager, which felt that the event would become too political.

The Canadian Association for Equality planned the festival at Artscape Gibraltar Point to mark what it was calling E-Day, a day to promote men’s parental rights in partnership and marriage breakdowns. Specifically, the day was supposed to support Bill C-560, which calls for an amendment to Canada’s Divorce Act that would instruct judges to apply shared parenting unless there is proven neglect or abuse.

Artscape, a creative non-profit organization, cancelled the event after a flurry of e-mails and Facebook posts indicated that attendees might get political, which goes against the organization’s policy, said its communications director, Liz Kohn.

There is a petition to the White House to classify the Men's Rights Movement as a terrorist group. The petition is slanderous and horribly wrong regarding the Men's Rights Movement and MRAs. It goes on to state that the mass murders committed by Marc Lepine and Elliot Rodger were inspired by MRAs and puts the suicide of Tom Ball in the same category as well (yet again, horribly wrong). This petition is so appalling that it's almost beyond words, and does a terrible disservice to the Men's Rights Movement which has sought fair treatment of men and boys. Here is the text of the petition:

"We petition the Obama administration to:

Classify the Men's Rights Movement as a terrorist group

The Men's Rights Movement (MRM) is a misogynistic movement that advocates violence against women and girls.

'In classrooms across America, being a male is an educational liability.

Literature and popular culture provide a pretty good illustration of the idyllic American boyhood throughout the decades. They also provide a pretty good overview of the type of mischief and restlessness that can be expected from many male children at certain ages.
...
Unfortunately, boys being shuffled through the many politically correct bureaucracies that exist in American education, and society at large, today might not be able to relate to a Dennis the Menace or Tom Sawyer by the time they reach adulthood.

Here’s Why:
