Meghann Foye, authoress, 38, facing firestorm of outrage for claiming women without children should be allowed a ‘ME-ternity’ leave to focus on their goals, bails on Good Morning America appearance at the last minute

Priceless. Hmm, does this story tell us anything we didn’t already know about gender-typical work centredness? And did the world-renowned sociologist Dr Catherine Hakim possibly have something to say on the subject in 2000?

On the most recent International Women’s Day – March something-or-other – I had the pleasure of appearing on Sky News with two women, talking on the topic, ‘Can you be a successful working Mum?’ Kay Burley, the presenter, along with a feminist guest, were both examples of the one in seven women who are work-centred, both seemingly incapable (in common with almost all such women) of understanding that six in seven women are different. The video is here (18:25). Ms Burley appeared a little startled when I described her presenting her personal experience as ‘pathetic’, I don’t know why.

University of Southern California cancels video games panel due to lack of women

Our thanks to Martin for this. From the comments stream:

The overwhelming number of game players are male especially in the upper echelons there are practically no females.  It is very competitive.  So now we have to let women win to make them feel inclusive.  Believe me if this were a women dominated event with no men it would not be an issue. I work in the tech industry and it’s bad enough when you have to force women to pull their weight because they lack the necessary skills, now the gaming industry is forcing futility upon us.

Another:

Women were invited and welcome to participate, they just make up such a minuscule % of video gamers and developers. This is like cancelling a beard contest due to lack of women participants or panelists.The real sexists are in USC admin.

Video of the anti-MGM protest in Luton (22 March)

A tip of the hat to The Forgotten Man of TheLondonGroup for filming and editing this. To date, it’s the only video of the largest anti-MGM protest ever held in the UK, outside the largest private male circumcision clinic in the country – Thornhill Clinic, Luton. We recommend you subscribe to the Tlg YouTube channel while you’re there.

Our thanks to The Forgotten Man for giving us permission to publish the piece on our own YouTube channel – here.

We invite you to join us at three further anti-MGM protests before the London conference, starting with the one in Golders Green on the afternoon of 12 May – here.

Please email me mike@j4mb.org.uk if you expect to join us in Golders Green. I need to give the police an estimate of the number of protesters. Thank you.

Ignorance about men’s issues at ‘The Spectator’ and ‘The Oldie’

I recently started subscribing to The Spectator, a weekly publication, and always enjoy reading it, even if its grasp of gender politics is utterly woeful. Julie Burchill and Germaine Greer are among its occasional contributors, maybe there’s a connection. But I was shocked recently by a recent piece in the column penned by Charles Moore (59), a highly respected journalist and former editor of The Daily Telegraph, The Sunday Telegraph, and The Spectator. He’s also the official biographer of Margaret Thatcher, and the first two volumes of a projected three-volume biography have been published to well-deserved critical acclaim.

Charles Moore must surely be an exceptionally well-informed man, yet in a recent column he speculated that male circumcision might one day be refered to as ‘Male Genital Mutilation’. Along with the head of a British charity concerned with the subject, I wrote a letter to the paper. Needless to say, neither was published.

All of which brings me to The Oldie, a monthly publication. I’m not a subscriber, but I receive second-hand copies from a person living near me. The editor is Alexander Chancellor, a 76-year-old journalist. I assume he must be the person who pens the introductory “The Old Un’s Notes”. In the May edition (yes, I know, it’s still April) he has some mind-numbingly ignorant things to say about the Women’s Equality Party – here. Start at the third large red star.

I’m increasingly convinced that the paucity of mainstream media coverage of men’s issues has less to do with feminist influence in the media, and more to do with the utter lack of interest in men’s issues among men in senior positions, who are utterly blind to (and therefore disinterested in) the suffering of men and boys.

It gets worse in The Oldie. On the final page Irish journalist Mary Kenny (72) refers to the crime of paternity fraud as ‘affirmative action’ in her response to the third question, remarking that ‘the male can like it or lump it’.

 

European Council on Tolerance and Reconciliation (chairman: Tony Blair) plans to eliminate anti-feminism, by making it illegal in the EU

Our thanks to William Collins for his latest remarkable piece.

The chairman of the ill-named European Council of Tolerance and Reconciliation is Anthony Charles Lynton Blair, the husband of one of the most vile feminists of her generation, Cherie Booth. If you were undecided about how to vote in the referendum on 23 June, hopefully William Collins’s blog piece will help you make up your mind.

How much are those who mutilate baby boys’ genitals earning from their crimes?

One area we’ve rarely touched on is the financial incentives for the criminals who mutilate boys’ genitals for financial gain, leaving aside for now the potential for making further money by selling foreskins to a number of commercial organisations. Let’s consider two doctors / mohels (Jewish ritual circumcisers) on the AVfM Known Genital Mutilators directory:

Dr Martin Harris practises at a clinic in Golders Green, and charges £395.00 for the procedure – his website was recently archived, here. His original website is no longer available to view. Now, why might that be?

Dr Howard Cohen works at a centre in Surrey, and while his website is currently still ‘live’, for the sake of posterity we’ve archived it – here. From his home page:

I have been performing circumcisions since 1991 and I usually perform three or four a week.

Assuming Dr Cohen has been mutilating the genitals of three or four baby boys (I hesitate to call them Jewish baby boys, for obvious reasons) per week since 1991, 25 years ago, that amounts to maybe 3,750 – 5,000 genital mutilations over the past 25 years, and we can be sure he’s still carrying out the procedures, given his website is still publicly accessible.

We emailed Dr Cohen to ask what he charges for the illegal procedure, but he didn’t reply, so it falls to us to make an educated guess as to his earnings over the past 25 years. If we take Dr Martin Harris’s £395.00 as the ‘going rate’ for a doctor / mohel, this leads us to the following estimate (at today’s prices) of Dr Cohen’s earnings to date:

1.5 – 2.0 MILLION POUNDS

Given his age, which we can estimate from his photograph on his website, he can surely expect at least another million pounds before he finishes his career in genital butchery.

We invite you to join us in protesting against this barbaric and illegal practice at our next three protests before the London conference. The first will be in Golders Green, details of all three protests here.
