BBC Woman’s Hour – Woman Sour as its affectionately known in some circles – deliberately misrepresented me, the BBC Trust today concedes. Instead of describing me accurately as an independent (non-affiliated) researcher/writer (into the biological roots of human sociality), Woman’s Hour presenter Jane Garvey on air stated that I was a ‘self-described academic’, when of course I have never thus described myself.
More seriously, she also deliberately and maliciously misrepresented my written submission and oral presentation to a House of Commons select committee in their inquiry into ‘women in the workplace’, as an explanation, she claimed, of why no women get ‘to the top’; when of course it is an explanation of why it is a low proportion of those ‘at the top’ are women. But the Trust made the amazing unfounded claim that listeners somehow would have understood that she meant not why no woman would ever thus achieve, but merely that most would not!

A schoolboy blasted himself in the head with a shotgun he was given as a 15th birthday present, an inquest heard.

Charlie Booth, 16, was worried he would get into trouble after police visited to discuss sexual text messages he sent to a girl.

He was described as a remarkable young man by his headteacher at the prestigious £10,000-a-year Gad’s Hill School in Higham, Kent, set in the former home of Charles Dickens.

Charlie was found dead by his parents on March 8 at their home in Cobham, Kent.

The coroner ruled that Charlie took his own life.

Hours before his death, police were called to the family’s home between 6pm and 7pm to reports of text messages of a sexual nature being sent to a girl, the inquest at Gravesend’s Old Town Hall heard yesterday.

Det Sgt Lee Neiles, of Kent Police, told the inquest: ‘She wanted them to stop.

Angry Harry – ‘Strong Activism’

I think that it must be fairly obvious to most MRAs that the MRM and men, in general, are under siege from a number of sources.

Currently, MRA sites are being blocked by companies like Symantec and O2 and, more recently, Facebook has tried to stop men from making supposedly anti-feminist comments on its pages.

And the media, of course, have nearly always been unwilling to support men and fathers in any way.

Indeed, for the most part, the media seem to go out of their way to demonise men and fathers, sometimes directly and sometimes indirectly.

Typically, MRAs respond to this by trying to encourage various forms of verbal protest about the situation – perhaps encouraging others to complain directly to the offending organisations.

More commonly, however, MRAs will simply accept that these organisations are going to remain antagonistic toward their views for some considerable time to come and so the best that they think they can do is to discuss these problems and/or write articles and make videos about them – the general idea being to awaken more people to the issues in the hope that more and more people will begin to see things their way.

And any form of ‘protest’ is typically limited to these kinds of activities .

Of course, changing people’s minds so that they become more supportive of MRA objectives is the most important thing to do and, as I have stated many times before, in order to do this, MRAs do need to try to attract the largest audiences that they can.

But when it comes to trying to change the attitudes of specific organisations that wield considerable power, such a form of activism is likely to remain very weak; unless, of course, one can continually attract an audience of many thousands, or even millions – something which MRAs have failed to do.

However, there is another way to change the attitude of organisations so that they become more receptive to one’s point of view. And this is to threaten the power (money) that they possess much more directly unless they change their attitudes.

BBC – Men to blame for the menopause (for choosing younger women)

5 Replies

This at the end of a week in which there has been at least two ‘child abuse’ (i.e. men having sex with teens, or watching teens having sex) hysterical stories on the main BBC News homepage every day. Can anyone spot a possible connection?

Hot flushes, night sweats, mood swings – menopause and its side effects can all be blamed on men, experts suggest.

Evolutionary geneticists from Canada’s McMaster University say men’s tendency to choose younger mates meant fertility became pointless for older women.

In PLOS Computational Biology, they say this eventually led to the menopause.

But a UK expert said that was the “wrong way round” and men chose younger women because older women were less fertile.

Man warned by police after complaining to them about prostitute’s looks

A man has been warned after he dialled 999 to complain about a prostitute’s looks after meeting her.

West Midlands Police said they were contacted by the caller who said he “wished to report her for breaching the Sale of Goods Act”.

The force said the call was received at about 19:30 BST on Tuesday complaining that the woman was not as attractive as she had claimed.

Officers have now sent the man a letter warning him about wasting police time.

West Midlands Police said the man had claimed he met the woman in a hotel car park.
‘It was unbelievable’

“The caller claimed that the woman had made out she was better looking than she actually was and he wished to report her for breaching the Sale of Goods Act,” a spokesperson for the force said.

This guy didn’t realise that reporting a female for any crime (and crime it was) involving sex is a waste of time.

An MP has been reprimanded for wearing a T-shirt displaying the slogan “No More Page Three” in large lettering during a parliamentary debate.

Caroline Lucas, Britain’s only Green MP, was speaking on sexism in the media.

But the MP chairing the session, Labour’s Jimmy Hood, told her she was in breach of Westminster’s dress code, and ordered her to cover up.

Shame they couldn’t tell her to put a paper bag over her head too…

John Pilger on the Feminist Betrayal of the Class War

Leave a reply

Not sure if this piece by left-wing journalist John Pilger has been highlighted already in our community.  A very good article, but feminism has always been about largely middle-class women dictating morality to ALL men, and as it happens, to a large extent working class girls and young women as well.  Noble questions of justice such as the distribution of material wealth or the capitalist exploitation of labor do not even enter the vaginal minds of feminists, or at least only serve as causes and movements to be hijacked in order to promote better the brood mare morality of the Sexual Trade Union.

(excerpt) :

As editor of the Daily Mail in 1970s and 80s, David English invented a newspaper for those urgently seeking membership of the English middle classes. Whether his readers ever achieved their ambitions was beside the point; their prejudices and illusions were reflected, often brilliantly. Women were central to his project. The Mail became “their” paper, boasting a new “media feminism” that subtly divided men and women into opposing camps and added a dash of moral panic.
This is now standard media practice. “Most weeks some lovely, caring berks tell me I am a man-hating witch,” wrote Suzanne Moore recently in the Guardian, “so let’s get it out there. Sometimes I am. The acceptable kind of suck-it-up feminism (I love men really!) is hard to sustain after yet more abuse stories… Do I think all men are rapists? No. Do I think all women can be raped. Yes?”
How quickly the broad brush of blame is applied to a rash of dreadful murder and kidnap cases. Throw in an abduction in Cleveland, Ohio, and the arrest of “yet another TV personality”; and, according to Cynthia Cockburn and Ann Oakley, this represents “the profound, extensive and costly problem of male sexual violence.”
Part of the problem, another commentator insinuates, is that men don’t care as much as women because they don’t use Twitter enough to express their abhorrence of rape and kidnap. This all adds up to a “crisis in masculinity” requiring men to join in a “conversation” about their social and moral deficiencies on terms already decided.

Any MRAs who enjoyed Pilger’s article, would also likely appreciate the classic men’s rights book ‘No More Sex War‘ by Neil Lydon, also written from a left-wing perspective.

King Mangina to Make it Easier for Police to Force Children to Accuse Men of Abuse

Vulnerability among child sex abuse victims should no longer be a barrier to justice, the director of public prosecutions, Keir Starmer QC, has declared as he unveiled new guidelines for handling cases.

Victims will in future be told that other complaints have been made against suspects “to strengthen their resolve to continue with the criminal process”.

Detectives and prosecutors will also be reminded that “reluctance to co-operate with those in authority, failure to report allegations of abuse swiftly” and providing inconsistent accounts are not uncommon patterns of behaviour for child sex abuse victims.

(in other words, teenagers who do not feel they are being abused, who seduce older men, or who exploit their own nubile bodies for cash, will not only be forced to testify, they will be encouraged to lie about the circumstances of their ‘abuse’ in order to secure a prosecution).

The new guidelines could result in a flood of new cases entering the criminal justice system. A joint police/CPS panel has been established to consider complaints about past cases where either prosecutors or detectives declined to continue with investigations. The panel is already looking at claims by four individuals.

The new CPS guidelines will require all child sex abuse cases to be dealt with by specialists in rape and serious sexual offences. There will be earlier consultation on cases between the police and CPS.

Victims will be given more support. “There is no bar to a victim seeking pre-trial therapy or counselling and neither police nor prosecutors should prevent therapy taking place prior to a trial,” the guidelines state.

On informing victims about suspects, they say: “There is no rule which prevents victims being told that they are not the only ones to have made a complaint of abuse.

“Victims can be told that the suspect has been the subject of complaints by others. Doing so may strengthen their resolve to continue their engagement with the criminal process. But this should usually only be done after the victim’s account has been given, and details of other allegations should not be disclosed.”

Keir Starmer is the mangina who recently claimed that it was a myth that men were being frequently falsely accused of rape or abuse by women. He appears to be in some kind of competition with Nazir Afzal, the public prosecutor for the North West of England, and paedo finder general for Operation Yewtree, to prove to the nation’s vaginas that they will protect them the most and lock up the most men in order to do so. Both are seeking the role of national director of public prosecutions for the UK.
