Month: July 2017

Tanisha Williams (20) and Paige Springer (20) jailed over ‘sickening’ torture of a 27-year old man, a vulnerable internet date smashed over the head with a hammer, dunked in a cold bath, strangled with hair straighteners and threatened with a DRILL during a 24-hour ordeal. Motherhood a mitigating circumstance in their sentencing, just 28 months in prison.

Our thanks to Sue for this. The end of the piece:

Mr Pottinger [prosecutor] added: ‘There was a clear intention to cause more injury than he sustained because there were a number of blows that did not connect with any real force.’

Williams’ lawyer Mr Dan Darnbrough said: ‘She deeply regrets her actions. It will be her first custodial sentence and she is terrified.

‘Sometimes she drank to excess and took cannabis and says her anti-depressant tablets turned her into a zombie.’ [J4MB translation: She can’t be held accountable for her actions because vagina.]

Both women were given a 10-year restraining order against Mr Liddell and forbidden from contacting him by Judge Lamb.

He said: ‘There is no dispute this is a Category One offence.

‘Save for motherhood there’s little in mitigation for these defendants for me to take a different course.’

Could someone please explain to me why these violent women being mothers should be a ‘mitigation’? Wouldn’t their children be better off being looked after by less dysfunctional people?

Indignant mother hits out at the female teachers favouring girls over boys with ‘lifelong’ consequences

Our thanks to Jeff for this. An extract:

The education system, just like society at large, is loaded against boys and in favour of girls.

From teachers favouring girls when children raise their hands in class to suggesting that any boy who exhibits curiosity or sensitivity must have something wrong with him, boys are demeaned from the moment they put on their uniforms and enter the school gates.

Little wonder that the attainment gap between boys and girls has become a chasm. A girl born today is 75 per cent more likely than a boy to proceed to higher education, while young men enter the adult world more unsure of themselves than ever.

How to raise public awareness of anti-feminism, and annoy feminists at the same time (a win/win situation)

/ Mike Buchanan / 2 Comments

I was walking near my house earlier this afternoon, in the throbbing metropolis of Bedford, when a young woman (in her 20s, I think) pushing a child in a buggy, crossed the road (forcing a car to stop in the process) and wagged her finger at me, whilst wearing a hatchet-faced expression which should have immediately told me she was a feminist. She came up to me and explained that she objected to the text on my polo shirt:

This is what an anti-feminist looks like

It’s one of the top-selling items in the J4MB summer shirt collection, here. She explained that she had been on a Gender Studies course, feminism is about gender equality, and I was clearly in need of a female ‘love bomb’, whatever that might be. She owns a T-shirt bearing the text, ‘This is what a feminist looks like’, presumably the one sold by the Fawcett Flossies. The ensuing conversation was as pointless as you’d expect. It was (predictably) like trying to debate with a particularly dim-witted child, as efforts to debate with feminists invariably are. I don’t know why I bothered.

I seek to wear such shirts at least four days a week, and they’ve resulted in some interesting conversations, as well as having the added benefit of annoying feminists. We have it on our ‘To do’ list to add two new shirt designs, “Men’s rights are human rights” and “FEMINISM IS CANCER”. Let me know if you’d like to order the designs, and we’ll put them up within 24 hours.

Martin Daubney: Allow me to mansplain why the Women’s Equality Party failed

/ Mike Buchanan / 2 Comments

An interesting piece despite Daubney admitting he voted for the Women’s Equality Party in the London Mayoral election. What else would we expect from a co-founder of the feminist-friendly Men & Boys Coalition? An illustration of their work is this. The piece starts:

The Chief Medical Officer, Dame Sally Davies, has written to the Coalition to confirm that she has no plans to follow her 2015 Annual Report on women’s health The Health of the 51% with an equivalent report on the health of men.

Her refusal follows multiple requests, first in the form of a joint letter in March 2016 prior to establishment of the Coalition, and then in March 2017 on behalf of the Coalition.
