Della Burton: ‘The Campus False Accuser Support Act’
Another strong piece from Della Burton, this time about the outrageous treatment of male students at American universities:

More stay-at-home mothers have returned to work in the past two years, than in the previous 15 years combined
An interesting article in yesterday’s Daily Telegraph:
Almost 200,000 women in two-parent families with dependent children have re-entered the workplace since 2011, compared with 185,000 who went back to work between 1996 and 2011, a period encompassing THREE Labour administrations.
The article contains perceptive comments by Laura Perrins, a former barrister, a leading figure in the campaign group, Mothers at Home Matter http://mothersathomematter.co.uk/:
I would say that the government has absolutely failed to be in any way family-friendly. They don’t seem to understand what family-friendly means – they think it basically means separating mothers from their young children. The Coalition are more interested in ideology and the gender politics of getting more mothers back into work than being family-friendly
They have dedicated themselves to separating mothers from their young children. The needs of children are completely ignored.
Later in the article it’s stated that the proportion of men of working age in employment has fallen from 92% in 1971 to 76% this year. How can anyone not see all of this as a state-sponsored initiative to drive women into work, regardless of the cost to women’s happiness, the wellbeing of men, and the nuclear family? The Conservatives in particular should be ashamed of themselves for their role in all this.
What it’s like to be beaten up by your girlfriend
I’ve just been sent the following link by a valued supporter who’s also a repeat donor to the party. I’m looking forward to meeting him later today at the National Conference for Men and Boys in Brighton. It’s good to see the Telegraph giving coverage to both female-on-male domestic violence and The Mankind Initiative.
The different natures of men and women
I much enjoyed the second of three episodes of Science Britannica on BBC2 this evening, most notably for the contribution of Simon Baron-Cohen, an eminent psychology professor at Cambridge University. He was the originator of the thesis that autism is an expression of an extreme male-pattern brain, a theory which has since gained widespread acceptance.
The good professor talked about the importance of a ‘systemising brain’ to scientific inquiry, and despite my shouting at the television, the programme didn’t make the obvious link to his work – that the male brain is ‘hard wired’ for systemising, while the female brain is ‘hard wired’ for empathising. It has been verboten in mainstream media for decades to say that the vast majority of men and women act gender-typically given the choice, and that those actions result primarily from gender-typical brain differences.
Gender-typical brain differences are a reality which feminists fight with every fibre of their miserable beings, while neuroscientists build a mountain of evidence. Feminists are like flat earth theorists who have an explanation for every scientific explanation that proves them wrong.
Baron-Cohen wrote a remarkable book published in 2003, The Essential Difference. I had short extracts in my book David and Goliatha: David Cameron – heir to Harman? (2010), later included in The Glass Ceiling Delusion: the real reasons few women reach senior positions (2011). The following is the first 10 pages from a chapter in the latter book entitled, ‘The Different Natures of Men and Women’. The last four pages are concerned with Baron-Cohen’s book:
Just £14 more required to meet our campaign target of £1,000
I’m preparing for tomorrow’s National Conference for Men & Boys in Brighton, and greatly looking forward to the event. There’s just one thing that would make my day, and that’s if we hit our campaign target of £1,000 before the event. So if you feel able to contribute something, whether as a first time donor or a repeat donor, there’s never been a better time. The link:
Any donations received after the target has been reached will be used to launch the next appeal.
Thank you for your support.
Why are women above the law?
There are 80,000 men in British prisons, and just 4,000 women. The government plans to close the women’s prisons.
Men are far more likely than women to be incarcerated for serious crimes, and serve markedly longer sentences when convicted of the same crimes. The last edition of Mail on Sunday carried a story which brought down the red mist. When you read the following story, bear in mind British men pay 72% of the income tax paid in the UK, £64 BILLION more than British women:
So, what could reasonable people object to in this story?
1. The provision of a council flat for an 18-year-old woman on the grounds that she’d managed to become pregnant. This made her ‘vulnerable’ so the taxpayer has to fund her flat – near London’s Hyde Park!
2. She miscarried, yet was still in the flat 11 years later, and presumably would be there today but for the fraud she carried out.
3. She was on a good salary, and had alternative accommodation options, so how would she be more ‘vulnerable’ than a homeless man in London?
4. She sub-let the flat, whilst living with her boyfriend or mother, and netted £24,000 by doing so.
5. She lied about being penniless, but fraud investigators found an account with £11,000 in it.
6. She was found guilty of fraud but received only a suspended sentence.
Last week she avoided jail by agreeing to pay back £10,000. So the woman netted a profit of £14,000 from her crimes, taken up the resources of the taxpayer-funded criminal justice system, and her punishment is…. nothing. Can we doubt that a man in the same position would have gone straight to jail? I think not.
Random Encounters in the Sea of Pain
A new piece by Dean Esmay. Why don’t men wake up to the fact that society is geared to harming them, until and unless it does so, whether through a vicious divorce settlement, denial of access to children following relationship breakdowns, denial of access to employment opportunities… or in other ways? Man’s inhumanity to man appears to have no limits. But the tide of public opinion is turning against feminism. More than anyone, feminists know it. It must be a miserable time to be a feminist. It’s certainly a very good time to be an anti-feminist.

Albert and Bill, thank you
About an hour ago we were pleased to receive a donation of £20 towards our campaign to fund the fourth candidate for the 2o15 general election. We were intrigued to see the donor entered as ‘Albert and Bill’, and as usual sent an email by way of appreciation, pointing out we haven’t had a ‘dual donation’ before, and could they explain why they’re supporting us? We received the following email from Albert in response, and in a separate email, agreement to our publishing the content:
Bill and I are both pensioners, now in our 80s, and we think the country’s gone to the dogs with the state’s incessant efforts to pacify feminists – a pointless exercise, since feminists won’t be happy until and unless women (and girls) attain supremacy over men (and boys) in all fields – the desirable fields anyway – regardless of the cost to civilised society. Not long to go now before we reach that point, mainly thanks to spineless male politicians such as Blair, Brown, and Cameron.
Bill and I usually go to the local Toby carvery for lunch every Monday, leaving our wives to do whatever wives do when their husbands are out of the house. With a pint or two of bitter the cost is around £10.00 – £12.00 – good value these days – but this time we decided we’d skip the lunch tomorrow, and send your party the money we’ve saved. My wife wasn’t very happy at this, especially after I told her where the money had gone. She told me I can make my ‘own bloody dinner’ tomorrow!
Albert and Bill, we thank you warmly for your generosity. If you’d like to join them in donating what you can afford, we invite you to do so through the following link. With only nine days to go in the current 30-day campaign, we need to raise a further £385 to reach our £1,000 target for another candidate in 2015. Thank you for your support.
