Double plus thank you. I cried so much writing this. I don't know if it's clear but i was subject to parental alienation and taught to hate my father. He died in 1976 when i was 16. I didn't realise how i had been brainwashed until i was in my 40s, when i finally grieved for him. This is a moment of tenderness that i recall from my childhood. He must have ached to spend more time with me. But that was forbidden, as he was a monster. We each connect with the men in our lives in different ways, bu…

Here's what I wrote, half asleep, on my phone in the final section of my complaint ; Acceptance of hate speech against men simply normalises and legitimises societal disregard for equality. There is a moral imperative to publicly state that wishing that your outgroup dies is inconsistent with a tolerant and pluralist society. Clementine Ford needs to be censured, not censored. Hate speech based on gender is not OK UPDATE The AHRC wrote back to me saying that vilification is not their issue, as i…

It is, of course, Handsome Her, the soon-to-be-closed 'man tax' cafe in Melbourne in Australia. The post tries to satirise the feminist/ socialist perspective of the owners. I had planned a visit, but it was closed in the middle of the afternoon. If you look closely, you can see the image of a man passing by reflected in the shop window. You can even see his shadow.

I think nobody who supports men and boys is unaware of the wide range of groups who oppose equity for men. The sub reddit you mention is one example. The sad people who post there are a warning to men and boys: don't become like this! So you are not revealing any hidden truth to most members of this sub-reddit: but this is a milestone in your journey of discovery that equality means different things to different people. Don't be like them!

Most people do not self identify as feminist. There is no miscommunication there! The reasons why vary. The most common reason given is that non feminists say 'they don't hate men' which feminists claim is a mistake, and then use Motte and Bailey arguments to support their point of view (for example Emma Watson at the UN) Is it miscommunication that most people believe feminists hate men, and many feminists claim they don't?

I have always felt that coercive control is principally used by women, as it is more powerful in relationships than physical assault. So I am pleased about this change, as it is almost impossible to prove which party in a dysfunctional relationship first (or last) used coercive control

Collectivists always 'group up' from the individual to the identity group. So they would have answered: "Not (my Nigel), but men as a class have benefited from women's oppression." The accusation of 'bigotry' would elicit the response that "It is YOU who is defining things according to your made up classification. It is not 'bigotry', it is justice!" I think that refuting the central argument is more powerful.

The irony is that it is a man 'giving' rights, not women 'winning' rights. Wilberforce was pivotal in the ambition of slavery, and he was not a person of colour. Like most reforms it was a white male who facilitated equality. But hey, let's gloss over that

"Put simply?" I can cope with complex ideas ;-) "It's just whatever the marketing dept. for the supermarket you were in decided to put on special for that week." Category managers. The category managers may vary pricing tactically day to day, in certain stores, depending on a variety of factors. "Nothing more, nothing less." I note your opinion. It is very simplistic. In particular, there is a high degree of concentration in retailing in Australia, with the top two retailers having significant m…

I appreciate you trying to explain this to me. Here are the Schick products I work in a commercial role, so I DO understand retail pricing. Of course supermarkets discount products for all sorts of reasons. But Gillette invests in marcom to move the demand curve to the right, in the longer term. What is your assessment of the price elasticity of demand for Gillette handles , given the apparent substitutability of Schick?

I note your logic, and of course cutting the price is to shore up market share. Whether this is 'really smart' remains to be seen. The strategy of cross subsidising the handle by over charging for blades is well known. But normally advertising on one country (the US) does not lead to sales protection initiatives in another market. The 'short film' was 'above the line' or a brand campaign, which is not always designed to elicit a call to action, like buy now. But not many people would describe a …

I wrote to the supermarket (Woolworths). I suggested promoting their own brand, and allocating more shelf space to Schick. I got a reply which started: "We have tried to contact you without success..." Of course they have not tried to contact me at all. This highlights a key point about activism; you need persistence, and to treat even minor wins (a reply!) as a victory. If you don't, you will simply give up.

Doesn't amount to a lot, as they were probably over priced to begin with. But it is not a sign of success, is it? Why not post pictures on your own social media showing what's happening in your local stores? FWIW the competitor handles (Schick) were not discounted.

Hmmm. I'll bite. "The add seems to have no effect on the market price of gillet stock definitely not even touching the low it had in Dec of 2018." The sales impact won't be visible for one or two quarters. The supply chain will have two or three months inventory.

If the retailer has noticed sales slowing, the retail category manager would have negotiated with Gillette to see if they will cut the pri…

There may be many reasons why a supermarket discounts products. But the rash of yellow (and white/red labels) on Gillette products (but not on Schick products) tells one story. Let's hope that Gillette are subsidising the supermarket to protect market share.

"Were and wer are archaic terms for adult male humans and were often used for alliteration with wife as "were and wife" in Germanic-speaking cultures, and in the Old English construction werman, paired with the parallel wifman, denoting males and females respectively, which share structure with the current English woman. (Old English: were, Old Dutch: wer, Gothic: waír, Old Frisian: wer, Old Saxon: wer, Old High German: wer, Old Norse: verr)." So 'werman' means man, and 'wifman' means woman. But…

What a milestone in cutting through to the mainstream! While no one seems to know who Emmett Till was, the Corner-store Caroline case and Brett Kavanaugh have placed false allegations front and centre. The identification of white women as perps is an inevitable consequence of the modern age. If we are not to know Jackie's real name, or the liar at Waterloo Station, or any of the high profile cases, the perp is reduced to their identity. White women.

I think he is challenging the left's characterising anyone to the left of Stalin as 'far right'. Latham was leader of the Labor Party at one time. He believes the party has moved to the left, rather than him moving to the right. He is positioning himself as 'non PC' rather than being aligned to the left, (or the right). He is subject to daily abuse by trolls that would melt most feminists. He just ignores it :-)

If naive men can be persuaded to sacrifice their lives on the basis of a promise of 72 virgins, I wonder what was the incentive for these women? Trigger warning- humour. Male suicide bomber blows himself up, and gets to paradise. But when he gets to paradise he sees only other men. Where are the 72 virgins he was promised? Confused, he asks one of the other men where his virgins are. The man replies, "Brother, we are all virgins." Naive men, and naive women? Can all men be led by their penises?

I participated in a mental health study supported by Movember in Australia, and they had engaged with Dr Michael Flood, a particularly misandristic academic, for their academic guidance.

The challenge for you is this: if feminism is really such a positive movement for equal rights, why do mo…

I think Cameron was a centre right leader who cloaked himself in SJW causes in order to be "all things to all men feminists". The mainstream media celebrated his 'enlightened' views. Subsequently, Justin Trudeau in Canada and (to a lesser extent) Malcolm Turnbull in Australia have adopted a similar approach. Turnbull is also a centre right politician so this is not consistent with their political heritage. However, the disenfranchised working class men who are disproportionately represented in t…

"Lena Dunham doesn’t hate men — she’s simply proud to be a woman."

The comments (on the original article) are very disappointing. The negative associations of the phrase 'red pill' are strong amongst SJWs.

She lives in Australia ;-) Even I can spot the flaw with that! But the "conversation" that gender bigots DV commentators want to have here in Australia has been derailed at least for a day or two. When Saint Rosie Batty suggests that 'DV is gendered crime' there will be just as many women who will think "If I was Tim, I would eventually crack under that level of coercive control" as will think "Rosie, Rosie bless me with your sainted ovaries!"

I think no society in earth now believes that the state should support all citizens, even if they are economically inactive. It may be economics that addresses scarcity and choice, but it is politicians who have to decide who gets what. If there is only enough revenue to give everyone who wants it 75% of a minimum living wage, does everyone get just too little? Or are you proposing a Marxist revolution in which the bourgeoisie are displaced and their assets redistributed to create a fairer socie…

If you were asked to draw up a framework for determining eligibility for 'universal' basic income, what criteria would you use? Because whichever criteria you use, most politicians would ensure that the criteria put able men at the bottom of the list. "Because it is 2015".

Musacchio's case was somewhat unusual because it was a woman accused of sexual assault, a crime more closely associated with men, Zei said. “It certainly is not our stereotypical case, however, it shows that sexual offenders can be any type of person,” she said.

I read these stories and wonder what is the pay off for these women? sympathy? victim card stamped? jealousy? vindictive hurtfulness? "smashing the patriarchy"?

Show us you care about girls and women not because you’re a dad, but because you’re a human being. I don't often get angry reading feminist mumbo jumbo, but this got my goat. The inference that before the birth of a girl, fathers did not care for 51% of society is so unutterably bigoted as to (almost) defy belief. Remember Julie Burchill?

There is currently no corresponding established national or international evidence base on what works to prevent family violence, as conceptualised by the Victorian legislation, because of the breadth of forms of violence and perpetrator/victim relationships that it covers. So while we acknowledge that this submission – like the Joint Statement – will therefore not speak to the full gamut of the Commission’s remit, it will provide a robust and sound conceptualisation of how to prevent the overwh…

Another reason why men accused of rape should not be named. I'm sure the fact that the majority of the jury were women helped. He has a body of an Adonis, and the girl has experienced regret.

“Simply put, there is a crisis in masculinity, where men feel unable or unwilling to get help even when they are hit by catastrophic life events, bereavement, divorce, job loss or similar. I am ambivalent about this. On the one hand it shows that the behaviour of the feminist MP has had the opposite effect to that which she wanted. On the other hand, I am sceptical about the constant claims of a "crisis" Suicide rates are rising for men but instead of blaming men (afraid of being seen as weak) h…

It's a searing indictment of our society that when men speak about false allegations they are dismissed as misogynists and we need "she for he" allies to penetrate the mainstream media's disregard for men talking about issues that concern men.

This is how adults behave when they are not afraid of the PC brigade. Sexual attraction is part of life's rich tapestry, and as a man I wish more women were upfront about what they want. (But I also know the rules; be attractive, don't be unattractive.)

At least she will be charged according to this but my guess is that when the furore dies down those charges will be quietly dropped. The Victorian Police have been feminised by Ken Lay: when it comes to men accused of sex offences they name innocent men and refuse to even name women guilty of fabrication, let alone charge them. I believe that the problem is not a drunken woman (who has subsequently apologised) but white knights in power.

Thank you. Your post raises issues of the platform upon which we argue: rights issues outcomes responsibility Life expectancy is an outcome, suicide is also an outcome. I've had a feminist tell me that suicide rates are men's own fault for being emotionally inept.

I think the tariff should be 50% of the sentence the man would have received if he had been convicted for a first offence, 100% for a second offence, 150% for a third offence and so on. How many women are serial false accusers, like this fine specimen? The truth is that while the identify of false rape assists is suppressed, we will never know. 30 days? Do…

"I need feminism because I can't find clothes to fit me" This is the quintessence of the alchemy that is feminism. Promise gullible and vulnerable people that if they become a feminist and 'smash the patriarchy' all their dreams will come true. Summers will be longer. War will end. Peace will reign. Climate change will be reversed. Queen Beyonce will share wealth with rich and poor alike. And girl's body mass indices will fall by 25% overnight. Yes we can.

I have often thought 'if feminists really believe that their views are so popular, why don't they form a political party and run for election?' Then they really could "smash the patriarchy! This video shows why. They can't agree on anything, including a definition of what they stand for. The vision of a party conference to agree a manifesto is one of some tiny minority trying to 'no platform' another tiny minority, and lots of hair pulling as the LGTBI faction roll on the floor with the intersec…

We live in a world of instant judgements, in which people perform for an audience, are judged by an expert panel, but you can vote for which performer you like, by dialling 1800 356 666 if you think that Barry is guilty, and 1800 356 999 if you think that Barry is innocent.

But they said there were clues to why boys are extra sensitive to disadvantage. A big one is that impoverished households are more likely to be led by single mothers, and boys suffer from a lack of male role models.

The only games single mums play come in a box with instructions and a dice (or in Sam’s case, with some kind of sports equipment) Err, no. The game for some single mums is "find me a walking ATM to support me after the father of my kids escaped" This article is a triumph of "wish for what you want and it might just happen" . But it doesn't. And it won't. So many desperate women. Tick tick tick...

"After careful consideration of the case, the Minister determined that it is not in the public interest to pursue charges against the woman." I made that up. But I'm right, aren't I? Charging her might imply that false rape allegations harm someone and are an offence. Let's look at the work of Dr Michael Flood of the University of New South Wales whose ground breaking research has revealed that... (continued page 94)

The story is about a police vendetta, rather than a false rape allegation. But the story includes the following text: When the original investigation was re-examined, another important piece of evidence emerged: a digital photograph of Mr Bryant taken around the time of one of the alleged rapes. His legal team had advised him not to tell police about this partial alibi. "It is very dangerous to show your cards as an accused person," Mr Woodhouse said. "That's the reason that the alibi wasn't rai…

I live in Australia and I only found out about this on MensRights. I must admit I am stunned for two reasons. Firstly, it is a great idea. Secondly, I can't help but imagine the publicity that would have been given to an equivalent initiative about mums. I fear that the next iteration will be about "families" or mens role in stopping domestic violence, as the simple celebration of the father's role will be a red rag to those whose raison d'être involves diminishing men's social capital.

Translation from the Klingon: "I was advised that my case was bereft of the merest semblance of any merit, as the legal process evaluated the evidence, not my ovaries. Reluctantly, I abandoned the case, to find other ways of using the damsel meme to make myself wealthy. I am more of a victim now than I was before. Please send cash. "

We need to remind people that none of us have the right not to be offended.

In fact, you could argue that by reinforcing the view that women are more focused on nurturing and caring, you might argue that this initiative reinforces the traditional gender norms that we are sometimes told need to be "smashed" .

In other news, a man on a bus was observed looking out of the bus window, across the road. On the pavement were a number of people, including a young girl. Witnesses said the man was of medium build, brown hair, with regular features. NSW Police advise not approaching the man, as he may be dangerous. Anyone with information about the offender is encouraged to contact CrimeStoppers.

Three men speak; one man's contribution is not wanted or valued. There are three lessons: speaking out against injustice requires courage. Well done that man! heforshe is just another way of focusing the agenda on the issues facing half of the world, and seeking compliance from the other half of the World in only addressing the "approved" agenda we need to be pluralist in accepting diversity of opinions, as when you see what totalitarianism looks like, it is ugly.

I have sometimes wondered, AS SATIRE, if challenging women's need for twelve pairs of shoes might be a straw man issue to highlight how pathetic the term "man spreading" really is.

The early results of her surveys indicated that victims wanted to speak with male, rather than female health practitioners. I think we know why this, don't we?

Presumably, the way that white men oppress others in patriarchy is through violence, including sexual violence. Privilege includes indemnity from prosecution for criminal acts, as the system protects those who established it, and whose interests it serves. Those at the top of the system would rape indiscriminately, except that the system would be marginally more likely to punish them for raping a white woman than a black woman. So when considering "who shall I rape today?" Mr Rapist would reason…

A number of recent events featuring violence by men in Australia featured three common themes: the perpetrator was male the perpetrator was homeless the perpetrator was suffering from a mental illness Remember Venn Diagrams at school? The obvious question is 'could mental illness and homelessness be a contributing factor to male violence, including violence against family members?' The answer is simple. "Who cares?" Instead, let's demonise all men and instead of exploring preventative measures, …

If I can be devil's advocate, it may be easier to refute hatred of all men than fear of all men. If a feminist countered that "not all men are rapists, but I carry a pepper spray in case the guy walking towards me is a rapist", what would you say? Some people do bad stuff, some men and some women. The logical argument is that this is a syllogism: "All cats have four legs. Rover (woof!) has four legs. Therefore Rover is a cat. It makes no sense. But what if a woman says "there were two women rape…

Batty started out acknowledging that her ex husband - who subsequently murdered their son - was mentally ill. After all, he had a history of mental illness and was living in a car at the time. But then the radical feminists got hold of her, and the narrative changed from "mentally ill homeless person acts irrationally" to "all men are threats to women and children" . The source is the tiny bunch of misandrists associated with Clementine Ford. She was the toxic feminist who persuaded the public t…

Alas there is not a single news bulletin on ABC (state broadcaster) in which we are not assailed with some 'crisis' which needs "addressing".

I think the issue here in Victoria is not (just) toxic feminists, though there are plenty of those on the Fairfax roster. The real issue is the fear felt by middle aged men that unless they are seen to be conspicuously virulent in their promotion of "listen and believe", then they will be denounced as misogynists.

The feminist group "Our Watch" claims in Myth #7 that "By one estimate, the percentage of false cases of rape (including reported and unreported) may be as little as 0.005 percent."
