This is beyond shameless:
Month: May 2014
RAF nurse who treated wounded soldiers awarded £560,000 compensation after suing Ministry of Defence for sex discrimination when she was passed over for promotion because she was female
After the last blog post, about a common-sense verdict in a sex discrimination case, it’s back to business as usual. Female tribunal judge hands £560,000 of taxpayers’ money (72% of it paid for by men) to another woman.
Female chef, 19, loses sex discrimination claim against top restaurant’s owner as tribunal judge rules she ‘lied and wildly embellished’ in bid for compensation
At last, a common-sense verdict in a sex discrimination case:
What punishment will the young woman face as a result of making those accusations? None, presumably. Women have nothing to lose in making such allegations, while business owners often pay hefty out-of-court settlements to avoid the publicity.
A supporter writes about his son being falsely accused of raping his ex-fiance
We’ve just received the following email from a supporter, G:
As you will remember, I told you some time ago that my son had been falsely accused of raping his ex-fiance. The two were in bed together at the time, and both were in their underwear! The accusation was she had fallen asleep, they had sex, and she had been unable to give consent because she was asleep!
After twenty months of hell the Judge ended the trial after just over an hour. Due to the fact we were not allowed in court during her evidence, our solicitor explained that she’d openly admitted on the stand that she’d made up the asleep bit in order to justify the accusation. No crime had actually been committed, and furthermore she freely admitted she hadn’t wanted police action to go as far as it did, she just wanted my son to get a ticking-off because he’d upset her during an argument earlier in the day.
Our solicitor says that in all probability no action will be taken against this girl despite the fact she’s openly admitted to wasting police and court time, not to mention her legal aid. After the trial finished, my son and I were walking back to our hotel, and his accuser walked past and cheerily said, ‘Hi!’ to both of us.
As you so often say, Mike, you couldn’t make this s*** up!
Maryland police ‘tweet’ photographs of men suspected of using the services of prostitutes – before they’ve even been on trial
Our thanks to a much-valued East European supporter who regularly send us links to interesting stories. This one is about vigilante justice being meted out by the police in Maryland. Our supporter writes:
I think we can forget the notion that the west is run by rule of law. Those were the days. Men are now being humiliated before even being convicted of visiting a prostitute.
Never mind that the prostitute, who profits from men’s natural urge/need to have sex, is deemed above the law, or to be the victim… the victim who makes 15 000 dollars a month, pays no taxes, and drives a sports car, while men sweat for mediocre wages and are lucky to get laid once a week.
And this is why I have nothing but contempt for any man who still believes that women need to be treated in a gentlemanly fashion. Precisely because of men’s mindsets, men are being hunted down like medieval witches and shamed in public while those profiting from their misfortune are being put on a pedestal.
I hope that men come to their senses as soon as possible, before it is too late.

AVFM’s attorney responds to Dina Mackney’s threats
An American, Christopher Mackney, posted a suicide note online shortly before taking his life. AVfM – along with others – re-published that note. Mackney’s widow employed an attorney who’s written to Paul Elam of AVfM instructing him to redact a portion of the note. Paul refused to do so, and employed an attorney to respond to Dina Mackney’s attorney. The following link will take you to that letter, as well as Christopher Mackney’s suicide note:
It’s heartening to see AVfM taking this action.

James Williams – the evil of Parental Alienation
An interesting new video by James Williams (Men’s Matters Radio) on the subject of Parental Alienation. It’s introduced with this:
Parental Alienation poisons families and can cause serious harm to children and adults alike. It is a social evil and a form of emotional abuse that is often ignored or denied by child support agencies. James Williams interviews the co-authors of a new book called Can’t Explain and touches on the prevalence of psychopathy and narcissism in abuse.
