From yesterday’s Daily Mail:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2576037/1-million-payout-drunken-sailor-hurt-double-award-maimed-hero-Ben-Parkinson.html

Extracts from the article:

A Royal Navy sailor has been paid £1million after injuring her back playing a drunken game during an Armed Forces function. The 25-year-old – who is still serving – was hurt plunging from the top of a human pyramid built by alcohol-fuelled troops as they larked about in the mess.

In stark contrast, the compensation is double the amount paid to Ben  Parkinson, the most seriously hurt British soldier to survive the Afghan frontline.

Then aged 23, the paratrooper was blown up by a mine in 2006. He was left in a coma for months with 37  injuries, including losing both legs,  damage to his spine, skull, pelvis, hands, spleen and ribcage.

Initially the Lance Bombardier was offered just £152,000 plus a £19,000-a-year pension. After a battle by his mother Diane Derni and public outrage, the hero was awarded £570,000…

The payment to the sailor is also more than 50 times the basic £17,767 salary of a  private fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan. The unnamed woman, who is understood not to be an officer and is now 31, was attending the official event at a base on land.

During the evening in 2007, she became involved in ‘drunken high jinks’ with high-spirited troops climbing on each others’ shoulders, sources told the Mail. But the human tower collapsed and the servicewoman plummeted up to 30ft to the floor. The woman took legal action, arguing that top brass had responsibility for her well-being as she was invited to the event…

MoD officials have refused to give further details about the sailor’s case but other awards have caused controversy. Last November, it was revealed three female RAF recruits were each given £100,000 after suffering spinal and pelvic injuries caused by marching in step with taller male colleagues.

In 2007, the MoD paid £484,000 to an RAF typist who said she suffered repetitive strain injury to her thumb.

An excerpt from the article:

Mr Hawken met Li on a blind date while he was still a teacher and she was studying English. The couple married, but as Li’s business took off the couple spent more and more time apart. Mr Hawken says the couple have spent most of the relationship apart.

Far from driving them apart, Mr Hawken believes the distance kept them together, and says they would have divorced a long time ago if they were under the same roof.

Mr Hawken says his only regret is not getting a divorce sooner, but he didn’t push for it over fears it would affect the couple’s teenage son William, now 17.

Mr Hawken no longer teaches full-time, but instead gives free tuition to under-privileged children.

Tony Hawken, we salute you for not using divorce as a road to enormous personal enrichment, as you certainly could have. No woman in the same position would have done what you’ve just done. Men everywhere should – and will – stand a little taller tonight.

Our thanks to the good people at ‘Pro-Male / Anti-Feminist Technology’ for these clips from Feminist Bookstore: Women and Women First. Watching this video seems to us the perfect way to celebrate International Women’s Day, when the only issues that matter are women’s issues. Just like every other day, every year, decade after decade. Enjoy:

Our thanks to Greg for pointing us to this piece:

From early in the piece:

Women’s Aid is highlighting that misleading statistics around men and domestic violence are leading to poor decision making in the commissioning of specialist domestic violence services for male and female victims.

If you read the whole piece you’ll be left in little doubt that Women’s Aid will do all they can to ensure a continuation of the status quo in which all (or virtually all) taxpayers’ money is directed solely to female victims of domestic violence, thereby funding the livelihoods of the hordes of professional feminists employed in the industry.

On the subject of professional feminists, a Women’s Aid board member, Dickie James, recently ‘favorited’ a tweet by ‘Radical Feminist’ in which the latter had misrepresented fathers getting pleasure from playing with their babies, as fathers getting pleasure from ‘abusing’ them. The tweet linked to an article by a Canadian expert on parenting. He was appalled at the misrepresentation, and replied to the tweet accordingly.

We publicly challenged Dickie James on the matter, following which she retracted her ‘favoriting’ of the offensive tweet:

https://j4mbdotorgdotuk.wordpress.com/2014/03/02/our-public-challenge-of-dickie-james-board-member-of-womens-aid/

The piece continues to attract a large number of ‘hits’, but no apology from Dickie James has been forthcoming, nor any condemnation of ‘Radical Feminist’.

Here we go again. You can be sure that almost anything that emerges from the BBC will be female-friendly. I can’t watch medical dramas on the BBC because the exaggeration of the numbers of female doctors and surgeons (always more competent than male doctors and surgeons) and male nurses is beyond ridiculous. We recently published a piece about women holding ALL the key positions (all presumably very well-paid) in relation to the latest Hairy Bikers series, other than the technical jobs which remain the province of men:

One of my favourite series on BBC television is Room 101, in which celebrities try to consign anything they don’t like to oblivion. Last night’s episode – ably hosted as always by Frank Skinner – will be available through this link until 14 March:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b03xgtgw/Room_101_Series_3_Episode_7/

The best of the three guests was, it has to be said, the comedienne Andi Osho, on good form. In the section 15:58 – 18:47, the actor Charles Dance makes the case for consigning NHS doctors’ receptionists to oblivion. It’s a good piece of television, particularly Frank Skinner’s contribution. But the ‘model’ for the piece was a male receptionist. I’m 56 and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a NHS doctors’ receptionist who was a man. My local GP surgery usually has three or four people working in the Reception office, and I’ve never seen a man in the office in all the years I’ve been going there.

The producer of Room 101 is a man – still one male producer left at the BBC, then – but it’s notable how many key positions in the programme are held by women. As you can see at 28:52, there’s the BBC executive producer, the head of production, and the production manager. Is it possible one of these geniuses opted for a male doctors’ receptionist?

It’s apt that the show is called Room 101, after the room of the same name in Nineteen Eighty-Four. The parallels between that book and the cultural manipulations that are going on everywhere we look are uncanny. Yet few people notice that the worlds depicted by mainstream radio, television and film are so unrepresentative of the worlds in which they personally live.

We’re witnessing brainwashing on a global scale, and it’s been going on for decades. I recently watched an episode of Cheers, a series which ran from 1982 to 1993. At the start of the series comedy was found in men acting like men, and women acting like women. That slowly changed over the years, presumably to appeal more to female audiences. Such a series wouldn’t have a chance of being financed today.

Have a nice day.

A sour-faced young woman with the apt pseudonym of Miss Anne Dree ‘tweeted’ the following to me, earlier this morning:

@MikeBuchanan11 die please

I tried to ‘favourite’ the tweet and ‘re-tweet’ it to my Twitter followers, but she’d blocked me from exercising both options. I invite you to reply to her comment – her account is @alexeptable. Thank you.

[Note added 16:17, March 8: one of the tweets posted by her on the #killmostmen Twitter timeline:

Miss Anne Dree     ‏@alexeptable                       3h

All of the RTs in @MrPooni‘s TL at present are why #killmostmen is a brand choice we can all get behind]

I recommend you click on #killmostmen to see who Miss Anne Dree is associating with and supporting. This is what feminists look like. 

[Note added 16:14, March 9: a supporter has informed us that Miss Anne Dree’s tweets have disappeared from the ‘tweet stream’ in question. Needless to say, we earlier took a copy of the comment stream, in the expectation her contributions would be removed. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Feminists aren’t the sharpest knives in the block, are they?]

Feminists (and others) might be interested in our public challenges of prominent feminists (and their male collaborators). They include Julie Bindel, Kat Banyard, Caroline Criado-Perez, Janet Street-Porter, Dickie James (a board member of Women’s Aid), Vince Cable MP…:

This article isn’t a spoof, apparently:

http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/womens-blog/2014/mar/07/violence-against-women-eu-report-everyday-sexism/print

It’s brought to you by The Everyday Sexism Project, which has over 100,000 followers on Twitter. Women are being taught ever more things to whine about, rather than being expected to deal like rational adults with a sometimes challenging and dangerous world – as men have always had to. The project is nothing less than a 24/7/365 initiative to infantilise women, and it’s achieving that objective. Laura Bates must be thrilled.

It’s all too apparent that the main problem in many (maybe most) of her project’s followers’ lives aren’t men, but mental health issues, including personality disorders. Let’s take this example from the article:

I used to be quite aggressive and bold and now I find myself afraid to look men in the eye or smile because if I do they think it’s an invite to call me sweetheart and beckon me to them. I have anxiety attacks now, I cry for no reason, I’ve fallen behind in work, most of my friends are male and don’t seem to understand. None of the men who have made me feel worthless will be punished for what they did, instead I am punished.

A friendly middle-aged (female) cashier smiled at me this morning – now that’s a rare thing, in Tesco – and called me ‘darling’, although she didn’t ‘beckon’ me to her, thankfully. If such things led to me having anxiety attacks and crying, surely the problem would be mine to resolve? The problem surely wouldn’t be a cashier having called me ‘darling’.

The woman who wrote the extract we’ve taken from the article – and others like her – should be seeking treatment for their mental health problems, rather than fantasising that initiatives such as The Everyday Sexism Project will change the world, because they won’t. All these initiatives do is make women more angry at males collectively – half the humans on the planet – and make women more anxious and more dysfunctional in dealing with the real world.

Who benefits from such initiatives? Professional feminists, including women with Narcissistic Personality Disorder who are basking in the exposure they receive in the mainstream media. Collectively, however, women are paying a terrible price.
