'Mike Buchanan is the founder of Justice for Men and Boys, a political party created to tackle the injustices that the modern man faces.

Mike told BBC Radio 2's Jeremy Vine that "men and boys need representation...and I'm not aware of a single area where women are disadvantaged relative to men." Laura Bates, of the Everyday Sexism Project, described the suggestion that men and boys are under represented as "laughable."'

'International Women’s Day is here. It could be a day to celebrate the many accomplishments of women, their advancement in western culture, their strength, wisdom and creativity. Maybe that will happen, but, if the past is prolog, International Women’s Day will also be a day on which feminists make the event Women’s Disinformation Day. Sadly, it’s already happened, as this article makes clear.

To those who follow the many misrepresentations feminists make about the lot of women in the world, Dr. Lindy Edwards’ piece in Australia’s The Age should come as no surprise. Her thesis in a nutshell is that men get to do the lion’s share of society’s paid work because women are stuck with the unpaid work. So men earn more while women struggle and likely end up living in poverty at the end of their lives.

The picture Edwards paints is not a pretty one, which is something to celebrate on this IWD, since it bears little resemblance to reality.'

'Children are missing out on positive male role models because of a shortage of men wanting to become teachers.
...
She said there were some "wonderful" men coming through teaching college but it was hard to attract males at primary level.

A long-standing public perception of male teachers having "poor intentions" could be one reason, she said.
...
The Early Childhood Council (ECC) estimated that of the 1100 centres it represented, 2 per cent of staff were male, but Mrs Sellars said men were "just as good" at looking after young children as females.

"There has been a stigma around males about sexual abuse in the classroom but the truth is it's just as much females as well as males. I think that [perception] is changing a bit now though."'

'Police in Sallisaw, Oklahoma said Misty VanHorn contacted a potential buyer via the social networking site.

They said the 22-year-old mother was looking to get $1,000 (£670) for her two-year-old, or $4,000 (£2,680) for the toddler and her 10-month-old baby.

"Just come to Sallisaw, it's only 30 minutes away and I'll give you all of her stuff and let y'all have her forever for $1,000," she allegedly wrote via Facebook.'

'A new report concludes that between 95% and 98.5% of all incarcerations in Massachusetts sentenced from the Massachusetts Probate and Family Courts from 2001 through 2011 have been men. Moreover, this percentage may be increasing, with an average of 94.5% from 2001 to 2008, and 96.2% from 2009 through 2011. It is likely that most of these incarcerations are for incomplete payment of child support.

'By now most people are aware of the issue of men's rights website being wrongly blocked by Symantec and various mobile phone companies due to them somehow being flagged as "hate sites". I've done further investigations and can exclusively reveal the official response from these companies on this matter. There tends to be a bit of confusion about this issue and so firstly I'll attempt to explain what's going on and tackle some misconceptions.

'Cotto: Today, divorce and infidelity rates are disturbingly high. Insofar as men are concerned, why do you think that this is the case?

Roosh: Divorce in America is a great deal for women. She gets half a man’s assets and monthly payments that can be quite substantial if children are involved. The more money the man has, the more she gets paid. The ultimate humiliation for husbands is to pay alimony for a woman who then takes care of her “bad boy” lover in his former bed. If you take away incentive for a woman to remain a wife or to be loyal, she won’t. 
...
Cotto: Feminism is a tremendously controversial subject. From your standpoint, what legacy has it left for men?

In case you hadn't heard, ACFC has started releasing its newsletter again. You can sign up for it on their home page. Following is an excerpt from the current newsletter's headline item:

Last week we reported that Attorney General Eric Holder said, "I applaud Congress for passing a bipartisan [VAWA] reauthorization that protects everyone - women and men, gay and straight, children and adults of all races, ethnicities, countries of origin, and tribal affiliations." While that is a great start, we have a long way to go before all victims are treated equally.

We also have a long way to go before persons accused of abuse are treated equally. Research shows, "males were consistently treated more severely at every stage of the prosecution process." 
 
It's easy to see why this is happening. Take a look at the National District Attorneys Association (NDAA) website, where you'll find their program, the National Center for the Prosecution of Violence Against Women (NCPVAW).  
 
Yes, you read that right. Blatant gender discrimination!

'SANTA CRUZ -- Santa Cruz County prosecutors Wednesday reviewed the 911 call of a woman who made a false rape report at UC Santa Cruz but have not decided whether to press charges against her.

"We will have a decision as soon as we get all the reports and tapes from UCSC," said District Attorney Bob Lee.

The 21-year-old woman, who authorities have not named and is not a UCSC student, said she was attacked Feb. 17.

On Feb. 28, UCSC Police Chief Nader Oweis said the woman admitted that she "fabricated" the report. The woman had bruises and described the fictitious attacker to an artist who produced a composite sketch.

If she is charged with filing a false police report, she could face 6 months in jail, counseling or restitution, prosecutors said.'

'A 47-year-old woman who can no longer walk or cut her own food because she has multiple sclerosis was sentenced Friday to 40 years in prison for murdering her husband in Butler in 2010 by shooting him six times.

An all-female Morris County jury on Jan. 31 found Amalia “Amy” Mirasola guilty of murdering her 43-year-old spouse, Carl Mirasola, in the master bedroom of their Roosevelt Avenue home in Butler on May 22, 2010. The jury rejected the woman’s claim that she fired in self-defense because her husband, who was having an extramarital affair, was raging that he would kill her.'

'Texas woman is facing charges after police say she ran over her husband at their home in Conroe, killing him.

Conroe police said the incident happened shortly after 7 p.m. on Saturday, when a 56-year-old Ruthie Cook-Scheer walked out of her home and got into her car to leave. Her husband, 66-year-old Frank Scheer, came out of the house and started talking to her.

'You don’t need a Y chromosome to know Mike Rawlings is a man’s man. Before he became mayor of Dallas in 2011, he was the top executive at Pizza Hut and, before that, an athlete. He has a full of head of gray hair and a voice like Jeff Daniels. When he talks, he relies heavily on sports metaphors. None of this should make his anti-domestic-violence activism surprising, but it might make him the movement’s most refreshing new spokesman.

Last month, Rawlings firmly requested the presence of 10,000 Dallas men — Boy Scouts welcome, too — at City Hall on March 23, to show their solidarity for his just-announced Men Against Abuse campaign. “I decided to call out the men of Dallas,” Rawlings told the Cut. “I said, this is not a women’s issue, this is a men’s issue. Eighty-five, 90 percent of domestic violence is men on women.”'

'In a rare move, a Brooklyn appellate court has decided that a prenuptial agreement between a Long Island woman and her millionaire husband will be thrown out, the New York Post first reported.

"It's virtually unheard of," Dennis D'Antonio, the attorney for Elizabeth Petrakis, told The Huffington Post. "To a large degree, this has upset the heretofore common thinking that prenups were not subject to challenge. ... Now there's precendent for vacating a prenup. It's a big deal."
...
D'Antonio explained to HuffPost that his client's husband is currently worth between $20 and $30 million. Peter Petrakis never made good on his promise about the prenup, and his failure to do so was enough to convince the courts that fraud had occurred, said D'Antonio.

"It's fraud where someone lies to you, or tricks you into doing something on the basis of a lie, that you wouldn't have otherwise done," D'Antonio said of the Petrakis prenup. "That was the grounds for challenging it."'
