Replacing Father's Day with a "Men's Day of Shame"
Submitted by Scott on Wed, 2001-10-24 00:45
Steve writes "An NZ lawyer is starting a campaign to rename Father's Day into Men's Day of Shame for sexual abuse. The full story can be read here. I have posted my own plan for protest here." This literally turns my stomach. From the article: "New Zealand could lead the way internationally if "good" men stood up in shame and denounced the sex crimes committed by other men." Good men standing up "in shame?" On Father's Day? This is one of the most degrading things I've heard of in a long time.Source: New Zealand Herald [newspaper]
