Happy Thanksgiving All, One of the reasons I was so interested in becoming a teacher (of academic subjects as well as martial arts) was to answer questions exactly like this one........ I used to wonder why my oldest sister went straight through college without a hickup, why the middle sister droppe...

You need not respond any time soon, Ian or anyone else.....This issue is NOT going away until it becomes resolved in the courts AND in the policy statements of all police departments in the land (to protect gay men as well as lesbians as well as straights)........ Panther.......You claimed some time...

Instead of addressing the issue seriously, why don't you just throw out some insults to detract us from the fact that your arguments and persuasion is nonexistent......... Where is my shelter asks Ian? Well Ian, like I have pointed out, ad infinitum, even though I have paid taxes, I am excluded from...

Ian, just cuz you seem eager to ridicule or ignore this issue (even aspects of it that MAY affect you or those you claim to care about), does not mean that I am eager to do so. Big issues take time (gay marriage wasn't enacted in 50 states overnight, for example, so the struggle continues) to resolv...

Thank you Ian for taking this issue so seriously (you are indicative of the bad attitude we have as a society towards violence directed at men -especially in the home). Here you are helping to prove my point....... Reactions to female-on-male violence http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGZIQaCaW0I 1) An...

Not that Gender bias is of any real concern when it is aimed at men, but from time to time it makes its way to the light of day is is addressed by the courts. http://glennsacks.com/blog/?p=4285 A West Virginia Circuit court struck down three administrative rules governing the licensing and operation...

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/news/city/chandigarh/Harassed-men-kin-to-hit-streets/articleshow/5079028.cms It seems, strangely, that in India, the DV laws also ignore DV against men (most have been developed by feminists, not that they are allowed to be criticized). Indian DV laws have been wri...

X: hey, why did the feminist chicken cross the road?

Y: um... to get to the other s-

X: BECAUSE YOU CAN'T CONTROL HER!

The louder and more shrill you are in interupting the better.

http://www.hvpress.net/news/123/ARTICLE/8021/2009-10-09.html October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and a national civil rights organization is charging our domestic violence system undermines due process and respect for Constitutional protections, reversing decades of civil rights progress f...

PBS's Breaking the Silence: An Assault on Fatherhood http://www.glennsacks.com/pbs/ The film portrays fathers as batterers and child molesters who steal children from their mothers. In addition, newly revealed court findings, records and testimony show that Sadia Loeliger--portrayed as a heroic mom ...

Wow, It turns out the University of California at Davis over-reported (or exaggerated or outright lied about how many rapes occurred on campus in the last three years). As martial artists, I can safely assume that most of you would love to see the number of rapes of women decrease and women feel a l...

As important as it is to note the conditions here as a reason why there is more or less activity, it is equally important, IMO, to note how many other web spaces there are to participate in now compared to when this all began (I was somewhat of a late comer and slow adopter). When this site began, p...

Panther, i would say it is a concern if father's rights groups or if women's rights groups support batterers. It is bad when either side supports a batterer! This is a serious concern. And I am sure it happens on BOTH sides, not just the father's rights advocates make mistakes. We aren't assuming fa...

Aaahmed46, (Hope all is well with you)..... What do think of those nice adverts created for the Dallas buses? And I neither believe in an overall patriarchy or matriarchy either. I believe that there are parts of society that men or women have greater or lesser power within. For every "male dom...

The myths also impede the ability of programs to respond to the...
