'The cemetery of living men'

Article here. You won't see the most despicable female convicts being treated this way. But men not even arraigned for a crime are treated worse that factory-farmed animals. Excerpt:

'Arturo Suárez says he was beaten by guards as soon as he arrived at El Salvador’s notorious Cecot prison. When he regained consciousness - his glasses smashed - everything was blurred, he says, but he heard the greeting clearly.

"Welcome to hell. Welcome to the cemetery of living men. The only way you leave here is dead."

Arturo says the person speaking was the jail’s director, Belarmino García.

Cecot - the Center for the Confinement of Terrorism - was designed for the mass incarceration of El Salvador’s most violent and dangerous gang members, a symbol of President Nayib Bukele's hardline approach to the wave of murders and extortion that had terrorised the country.'

It’s Time to Ask: Is the ‘Patriarchy’ a Feminist Myth?

Article here. Excerpt:

'UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres resorted to harsh rhetoric as he denounced what he called the “poison of patriarchy,” categorically claiming that opponents to gender uniformity are happy to “throw equality to the wolves.”

Addressing the UN Commission on the Status of Women, Guterres was referring to the fact that women currently hold 27% of seats in national parliaments worldwide, a number that appears to be impervious to the usual nostrums of gender equality activists.

Guterres is a life-long socialist. And according to Marxist theory, men and women should be seen as interchangeable in their ambitions and interests.

But reality paints a different picture. Multiple surveys show that around the world, women consistently prioritize family and relationships over political ambition.

And experience reveals that male lawmakers consistently favor women in the laws they pass. in 1994, for example, mostly male legislators voted to approve the American “Violence Against Women Act.”'

The ‘Man Crisis:’ Feminists Are Telling the Exact Opposite of the Truth

Article here. Excerpt:

'This past Saturday the Washington Post published an article with the uncompromising title, “What’s Wrong with Men?” Resorting to the flawed logic so common in contemporary feminist discourse, author Jessa Crispin starts with fictional Michael Douglas movies from the 1980s and 1990s, using them to reach dystopian conclusions about American men 40 years later.

For decades, feminists have been claiming that women live under an oppressive patriarchy. But then the truth came out: Men are lagging behind women in 12 major areas, such as health, education, treatment by the legal system, homelessness, and more.

For feminists reluctant to relinquish their hard-earned victim status, the November elections delivered another jolt of unwelcome news: Men had become the new “power demographic” of the American electorate.'

If Men Aren’t The Problem, Who Is?

Article here. Excerpt:

'While Tate’s crude words are troubling, his sentiment reflects a common theme among respondents: many men view modern women as self-focused or materialistic. More concerning is their fear of financial devastation in divorce, a legitimate worry given family court biases. Men see friends and family members devastated by marital breakdowns. Why would they take that risk? “The juice ain’t worth the squeeze” one follower said.

As influential figures like Tate amplify these fears, the perception of marriage as a viable goal diminishes, leading to a decline in dating and relationships. So, is it Andrew Tate’s fault? Not exactly. He’s highlighting serious issues we must tackle. We must approach men’s concerns with empathy and advocate for systemic reforms—particularly in family courts—while emphasizing the benefits of committed marriages. Only then can we begin to restore the value of connection in a fractured world.'

Loneliness is rife among young men. It’s time to get offline and talk to each other

Article here. Definitely has some bullspit tropes in it but the overall message is good: most men do need time with their fellow men. Digital world isolation is a real thing. Excerpt:

'Since 1990, there has been a sharp decline in how many people men say they are close to, says Ferrara, who is a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford and a visiting fellow at the London School of Economics. In the US, two-thirds of men aged between 18 and 23 think that nobody really knows them; one third haven’t seen anyone outside their household in the past week; only a fifth say they have friends they can really count on; and a staggering 69% of young men think “no one cares if men are OK”.

On Feminist Claims of Female Disadvantage in Modern American Society

Article here. Excerpt:

'My takeaway is that in modern America there is a broad moderate pro female sentiment in terms of societal opinions, and this carries over to slight pro female bias in various things like politics, employment, medical research and education. Women also are not a meek powerless group, with them making up the majority of voters, HR employees and increasing proportions of important media positions. The best case for female disadvantage in modern is the higher levels of sexual aggression that they face from men, but these statistics are not as lopsided in terms of gender as some people think. Even if you think I am completely wrong and biased (and i’m sure in an article that tries to cover so much I made some mistakes), I hope you learned something and got a different perspective.'

NCFM – Supreme Court Affirms: Men Are Protected Under Title VII

Article here. Excerpt:

'June 2025 in a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court ruled in Ames v. Ohio Department of Youth Services that individuals from majority groups—including men—are entitled to the same anti-discrimination protections under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act as any other group.

For decades plaintiffs were required to show “background circumstances” proving their employer was unusually inclined to discriminate against the majority—a hurdle not faced by minority-group plaintiffs, thereby making it harder for men to bring forward legitimate claims of sex-based [discrimination].

The plaintiff in Ames was a heterosexual woman who alleged discrimination after being passed over for promotion in favor of LGBTQ+ colleagues. Her case was dismissed under the old rule requiring “background circumstances.” The Supreme Court reversed that dismissal.'

The Price of Needing Help: How Men Lose the Right to It

Article here. Excerpt:

'Marin’s words capture an unspoken cultural law: a man’s value is measured by his independence and ability to provide—not by his humanity. This isn’t just a philosophical problem; it’s a practical one that plays out every day in men’s lives.

When women are in need, the language society uses is sympathetic—“vulnerable,” “at risk,” “deserving.” For men, the same situation draws terms like “lazy,” “weak,” or “failure.” That double standard is so ingrained that when a man reaches a point of real need—whether after a job loss, a divorce, a health crisis, or a mental breakdown—he is often met with judgment before compassion.'

UK: SAS top brass want to recruit super-fit 'GI Janes' to fight as special project launched

Article here. Excerpt:

'SAS commanders have revealed that they will need to recruit super fit female troops if the black-clad force is to fight in future wars.

The women will be recruited through Project Artemis, a programme aimed at bringing women into not only the SAS but also the SBS. Under the project female candidates, with at least two years’ service, get nine months’ mentoring to get them in shape to face selection.

It is hoped mental, physical and skill-based training under Project Artemis will help prepare the SAS selection course known to produce one of the world's most famous fighting forces.

Only one in ten male applicants pass the test. Combat roles were opened to women only in 2018.'

Crazed Women Increasingly Resort to Progressive Activism

Article here. Excerpt:

'American Eagle recently launched its “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans” ad campaign that features the popular actress dressed in denim. Unexpectedly, the ads triggered a full-scale meltdown among progressive women. They exploded with irrational claims that the ad relies on “Nazi propaganda” to foster notions of “genetic superiority” and “white supremacy” (1).

Such bizarre statements can be viewed as a form of delusional psychosis.

Indeed, progressive women have long been seen as foot soldiers for radical movements. “It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers-out of unorthodoxy,” George Orwell revealed decades ago in his classic tome, 1984.'

New study finds the gender earnings gap could be halved if we reined in the long hours often worked by men

Article here. Excerpt:

'There are lots of reasons why people work extra hours. In some jobs, it’s the only way to cover the workload. In others, the pay is poor, so people need to work extra time. And in others still, working back late or on weekends is encouraged and rewarded, explicitly and implicitly.

Those employees who do the extra hours, willingly and without complaint, are seen as hungry and ambitious. A view expressed in some workplaces is simply “that’s what everyone does”.

But what if we discovered that people – at least in heterosexual couple households – can only work long hours at their partner’s expense? Would it still be OK for workplaces to expect people to work longer than our standard full time week, and incentivise them for doing so?'
