'From my experience I've learned that men tend to weigh the pros and cons of giving feedback, especially when it could lead to conflict. This is a key reason men often choose not to confront feminism or even challenge their wives. If a man doesn’t see a positive outcome that outweighs the potential negative consequences, he's more likely to remain silent. This is just one factor behind men's reluctance to push back.

'And, wow, you were so much more wrong than he was. His silent treatment is juvenile, yes. But it pains me to think of someone who doesn’t normally show vulnerability getting a ridicule beat-down for the one time he does. Maybe the scene wasn’t all that moving to you, but who knows what he has buried inside him that this scene dredged up?

And you say it was “to his credit” that it was a sports scene?! Wow.

Tell him you were totally out of line and have some anti-male biases you need to root out. He can’t have feelings?'

'Democratic lawmakers are calling for mandatory extra sick days for women when they are on their periods, saying it is “economic violence” when women aren’t provided accommodation for their menstrual cycle.

During a press conference held as part of Women’s Health Month, Democratic lawmakers Yassamin Ansari, Adelita Grijalva, and Rashida Tlaib highlighted Ansari’s legislative effort introduced earlier this year for a proposal that “finally recognizes women’s pain.”

Ansari detailed an incident in the summer of 2015 where she “woke up on the floor” of a bodega, drenched in sweat, being dragged into an ambulance, as two male paramedics checked on her and asked if she was pregnant. She explained the incident was one of many where she suffered serious period pain, and she detailed how she would continue working despite symptoms.'

'A 17-year-old girl was arrested on Wednesday by the Universal City Police Department and accused of luring multiple young men online, which resulted in at least two robberies, partnered with a man who holds an extensive criminal history.

Alyssa Victoria Canul is tied to a robbery where a 15-year-old boy was shot four times at a Universal City park by her boyfriend, Joseph Anthony Aguilar, 18, on Monday, the city said through a social media post.

Canul’s role was to “lure young men on online dating sites, then robbing and assaulting them,” the city said.

She was booked into the Bexar County Adult Detention Center on Thursday and charged with two counts of aggravated robbery, jail records show. Canul could face an additional charge of tampering with physical evidence, according to the city.'

'The BBC is facing a furious backlash after hiring a man to write a forthcoming drama about the murder of Sarah Everard.

Acclaimed screenwriter Jeff Pope has been commissioned to pen the two-part factual series about Ms Everard's abduction, rape and murder by serving Metropolitan Police officer Wayne Couzens in South London in 2021.

The open letter, which gathered 400 signatures from leading female screenwriters in 24 hours, said the decision had prompted a 'great deal of anger' among female writers and that they were 'genuinely shocked' by the commission.

It read: 'The announcement of this particular commission brought a great deal of anger to the surface among women writers - anger that has been building for some time. Sarah Everard was killed because she was a woman.

'A growing wave of public discontent regarding modern feminist ideology has sparked international demonstrations. These frameworks have become overly restrictive and foster female supremacy rather than genuine equality.

This sentiment manifested visibly over the last fortnight across several Spanish-speaking countries, where thousands of demonstrators gathered in Mexico, Argentina, and Spain.
...

On April 24, a coordinated effort by three main advocacy groups—the National Collective of Women for Equality, Children with MaPa, and Al3x Flores—led to simultaneous marches across dozens of Mexican municipalities. Protesters carried signs reading, “I am a father, not a criminal” (“Soy padre, no criminal”), highlighting issues surrounding paternal rights.'

'New research has revealed that one in five boys aged 12-16 is either in or knows of a boy their age who is in a romantic relationship with an AI companion. A report carried out by men’s organisation Male Allies UK and published last month spoke with more than 1,000 boys aged 12-16 in focus groups in 37 schools – public and state, grammar and comprehensive, and across a range of Ofsted ratings – up and down the country. Peer-to-peer focus groups were set up where boys could speak freely, with the aim of diving into their behaviour and attitudes, and it was the boys who wanted to talk about AI technologies. The findings make stark reading: eight in 10 boys (85 per cent) have had a conversation with a chatbot, with 43 per cent saying they talk to bots so they can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. More than a quarter (26 per cent) say they like the attention and connection over real-life equivalents, and (36 per cent) admitted that they prefer speaking to AI chatbots rather than to their family and friends at times.'

'Imagine, for a moment, that Australia’s education system looked like this:

Less than one-in-five primary school teachers were female. By Year 9, girls were one and a half years behind boys in literacy. Every year, 12,000 more girls than boys failed to complete high school. And universities were dominated by men, with 64 per cent more male graduates than female graduates.

What would happen next?

Governments would convene urgent inquiries, and rewrite curricula. Media outlets would run front-page campaigns. Universities would launch targeted pathways, and develop new programs. Schools would redesign classrooms, and shift their culture. And society would mobilise, because we care deeply about our daughters.

But this isn’t a hypothetical. These outcomes exist today; only the sexes are reversed. It’s boys and young men who are falling behind.'

'“What do you think it is?” my doctor asked me on the phone. He was calling to reveal the sex of my baby, which expectant parents can find out these days via a blood test about 10 weeks into pregnancy.

Call it a mother’s intuition or a penchant for pessimism, but I already knew.

“A boy,” I replied stoically, resigned to my fate. I could feel it in my bones, or, more aptly, in my uterus.

And now science had confirmed it: The thing I had long feared was coming true.

'To no one’s surprise, this mass seething isn’t making the Gen Z sisterhood happy. The Left’s own in-house magazine, The New Statesman, has a cover story this week titled “Meet the angry young women: the new feminism reshaping Britain”. The mag’s poll found (once again) that “young women, aged between 18 and 30, are by far the most progressive demographic in the UK”. The writer, Emily Lawford, zipped up and down the land interrogating feminist influencers and hanging out in a trans-inclusive student women’s book group, a Unison “youth wing” ceilidh and… well, you get the gist.

'There is something deeply destabilizing about being falsely accused.

Not merely because of the accusation itself, but because of what false accusations reveal about human psychology, social fear, moral signaling, and the fragility of reputation.

Most people understand that false accusations can devastate an individual life. What we understand less clearly is what happens when accusation dynamics move beyond individuals and begin operating at the level of an entire sex.

To understand that larger cultural question, we first have to understand the psychology of false accusation itself.'

'But more than that, based on conversations I have had with more than 1000 young people in the last year – for the report I co-authored with Shuab Gamote, Inside the Mind of a 16-year-old, and more recently for the work I am doing on young people who are NEET, it has become clearer that something is going on here with boys that needs further research and investigation.

When you talk to boys, you realise quickly that there are multiple interlocking issues. For different boys they come together in different combinations: weak literacy, a dwindling sense of belonging, few strong role models, punitive discipline codes in school, online misogyny, lack of purpose, limited practical routes into adulthood and a culture that treats boys as a problem to be fixed, not as young people with strengths to build on.'
