'The road to female infallibility started innocently enough, with most believing that feminism was only trying to level the playing field. Things then accelerated quickly. Feminism had a secret weapon: It was kryptonite for men. Given men’s natural disinclination to fight with women, good men simply went silent about women’s lib, while the bad ones “benefitted” from and promoted it. Without any societal restraint, feminists ran amok, eventually saturating the culture with female dominance, entitlement, and self-righteous confidence.

'Men, well, there is a real problem – young women don’t rate you. According to a new poll, only 35 per cent of British women under 25 hold a positive view of men, with just 11 per cent expressing a very positive outlook.
It gets slightly better in the under-30s – with 50 per cent of women having a favourable view of men. The findings also show that women under 30 are three times more likely to hold a negative view of men, compared with women over 30.
What contributes to women’s unadoring views of men, according to the research carried out for The New Statesman, is men’s perceived overemphasis on sexual motivation and a nonchalance about political issues – with one in six women claiming they wouldn’t date a man if he had opposing political views about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict or Trump.

'Gen Z is struggling to break into the entry-level job market—but young male college graduates may be hurting the most.
Data from the Federal Reserve indicates that the unemployment rate among recent college graduates is on the rise, at about 5.6%.
Although it remains lower than the 7.8% rate among all young workers between 22 and 27 years old, men with a college degree now have roughly the same unemployment rate as young men who didn’t go to college, according to an analysis of U.S. Current Population Survey data by the Financial Times.
In comparison, around 2010, non-college-educated men experienced unemployment rates over 15%, whereas the rate among college graduates was closer to 7%.
It’s a stark sign that the job market boost once promised by a degree has all but vanished and that employers care less about credentials than they once did when hiring for entry-level roles.'

'For that and other reasons, women studying veterinary medicine now outnumber men by four to one.
It’s not just veterinary school. The number of women has surpassed the number of men in law school, medical school, pharmacy school, optometry school and dental school.
Women in the United States now earn 40 percent more doctoral degrees overall, and nearly twice as many master’s degrees, as men, according to the U.S. Department of Education — a trend transforming high-end work.
This is no longer some distant statistical abstraction. Americans can see it when they take their pets to the vet or their kids to the dentist, need a lawyer or an eye exam, see a therapist or pick up a prescription.'

'During the past few decades we’ve focused on attracting more young women to higher education. We’ve succeeded in closing one gender divide, only to open another.
Thousands of young men are missing out on university and, with it, the life-changing opportunities for better careers, higher-paying jobs and social mobility.
Australia now faces a generation of “lost boys” as young men fall behind, not only at university but also throughout the education system.
Federal Education Minister Jason Clare is to be applauded for flagging a parliamentary inquiry into the factors responsible for differences between boys and girls, starting with NAPLAN and including school attendance rates, university, TAFE and apprenticeship enrolments. Opposition education spokesman Julian Leeser also has advocated strongly on the issue.'

'Judging by her lyrics, Sabrina Carpenter has mixed feelings towards the opposite sex. She finds her paramours attractive, exciting—and disappointing. In “Manchild”, the lead single on her new album, she complains her lover is “stupid”, “slow” and “useless”. She asks, mocking a caveman, “Why so sexy if so dumb? / And how survive the Earth so long?”
“Manchild” is not the only track on the record to lambast mediocre men: time and again Ms Carpenter takes aim at blokes who can barely “do the dishes” or “assemble a chair from IKEA”. The American pop star suggests her beaux are dumb, as when, in “Sugar Talking”, she says: “You’re having these epiphanies, big word for a real small mind.” Some do not understand basic grammar. In “Slim Pickins”, a hit from last year, she complains about a man who “doesn’t even know the difference between there, their and they are”.'

'Throughout many of my debates with feminists, I've asked a simple question: “When will you stop fighting? What is going to be good enough for you?” Most of them can't give me an answer. It's not because the question is confusing or unfair, but because they can't admit the flaws of their own movement.
Women are outperforming men on every metric right now: college enrollment, graduate degrees, consumer spending power, social mobility. Yet we still see major influencers like Alex Cooper of Call Her Daddy claiming women are oppressed and will never be as successful as men, while signing a $125 million, three-year deal with SiriusXM. At a certain point, you have to ask: do these women actually want to be oppressed?

'Re: “Automatic draft registration is coming for these men. Here’s how it will work." online story.
The federal government’s move highlights and locks in a clear inequity: The policy automatically registers men, but not women.
Men who fail to register can face fines, imprisonment and the loss of federal benefits. Soon, they won’t even have a choice. Yet, these legal obligations apply to only one sex.'

'One of the presumed values of liberalism is moderation. Societies that are genuinely liberal do not demand that we suppress our natural instincts. They provide a framework for them to be expressed responsibly. This is the very foundation of a healthy society.
It is why we, in the West, do not stop people from making public displays of affection or criminalise extra-marital relationships between consenting adults. A liberal society trusts its citizens to navigate these aspects of life without state-imposed sanction.

'By now, we are used to hearing about the radicalisation of young men – that unfortunate cohort, captured by the manosphere, enchanted by men’s rights activists, veering to the populist right.
But what about the young women? If we want to understand why the political gender gap is widening, we need to look to those moving sharply to the left. To do so, Emily Lawford, the New Statesman’s online editor, has spent months in the femosphere – at The Feminist Library, deep in their TikTok feeds, at university feminist societies and Palestinian solidarity marches.
With exclusive polling from Scarlett Maguire, the director and founder of Merlin Strategy, our cover this week asks: Who are these radical young women? What do they believe? And how will their feelings of disenfranchisement and isolation manifest at the polls?'

'Victoria has its first minister for men and boys. Part of a cabinet reshuffle, the role was given to Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke.
It comes with an explicit dual focus: on one hand, boys’ and men’s own wellbeing, and on the other, the harms boys and men perpetrate.
The role has also been signalled as being a response to the influence of online misogynistic cultures, including the manosphere.
The establishment of this cabinet position is politically significant and offers both substantial opportunities and potential risks. The key will be following the evidence, however uncomfortable.
The timing of this new portfolio is not accidental. It reflects a growing recognition that something has shifted in how misogyny is circulating, particularly among Australian men and boys.

Comedian Leonora Jonie delivers a humorous retrospective on women's liberation.
You and I are seeing the same BS online that every day makes you wake up and go, "Oh, this is why our grandparents chained women to a stove and said no rights for you." Contrary to our suppositions, contrary to everything women have said they wanted their rights for, it turns out that when you liberate women and let them run wild, they become wh***s. Who would have thought? They use every avenue to become a wh***. Case number one, one of the bestelling pieces of women's literature is this right here. It's called Morning Glory.

'A strange pattern across Sabrina Carpenter’s music videos was hotly discussed online.
Netizens made claims of double standards after they noticed that the 26-year-old singer’s videos had a specific rule: the men rarely survive.
“What would happen if a male artist did this to women?” one asked online, while another wrote, “Imagine the outrage if the roles were reversed.”
Sabrina Carpenter’s music videos have an exaggerated way of storytelling, where men don’t seem to be very safe.
Her hit tracks like Taste, Tears, Feather, and Manchild depict male characters meeting violent ends, but in a comical and dark-humor kind of way.
The Grammy winner herself has addressed the running gag in her video on a few occasions.'

'A new study reveals that online communities dedicated to hating men share strikingly similar behaviors and language patterns with communities dedicated to hating women. The research suggests that gender driven hate speech is a broad phenomenon characteristic of toxic digital groups, regardless of the victim’s gender. These findings were published in the journal Scientific Reports.
...
Historically, researchers and content moderators have focused heavily on misogyny, which is the hatred of or prejudice against women. A routine search of academic databases reveals hundreds of thousands of papers examining online misogyny over the past two decades. In contrast, academic attention toward misandry, defined as the hatred of or prejudice against men, remains notably scarce. Studies examining misandry only began to appear around 2014, leaving huge gaps in the scientific understanding of digital harassment.'
