UN Feminist Taken To Task For Anti-Male Bias

We've all seen evidence of anti-male prejudice at the United Nations.

This article points out how Dr. Ned Holstein, clinical assistant professor at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York and a specialist in public health and preventive medicine, has challenged Carol Bellamy, executive director of the U.N. Children's Fund (UNICEF), to back up her misandry with some facts or withdraw her proposal to give special attention to the needs of women and children (and as a result less attention to the needs of men) in Africa. Holstein, a spokesman for Fathers and Families ("one of about a dozen gender equity groups from around the world that are calling on Bellamy to retract or renounce her proposal"), states that Bellamy's proposal violates the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, a U.N. document that prohibits any form of sex discrimination.

Perhaps it's time to look a little deeper into the misandry at the UN and to start demanding not only a few retractions but also some resignations.
