BBC: “Misogyny to be treated as extremism by UK government”

Our thanks to MF for this. The start of the piece:

Extreme misogyny will be treated as a form of extremism under new government plans, the Home Office has said.

Yvette Cooper, the home secretary, has ordered a review of the UK’s counter-extremism strategy to determine how best to tackle threats posed by harmful ideologies, with the exception of feminism.

The analysis will look at hatred of women as one of the ideological trends that the government says is gaining traction.”

We may have added a few words there, but they’re surely implied. We understand Jess Phillips MP will lead the “review”.

Worst domestic abusers to be monitored like terrorists

An interesting piece in today’s Sunday Times (£), written by a woman (Caroline Wheeler, Political Editor), it need hardly be said. There’s not so much as one sentence on female perpetrators or male victims. I’ve been busy commenting on the piece and getting some good engagement with other commenters.

Mike Buchanan responds to a feminist

I rarely respond to feminists on account of it always being an exercise in utter futility. When I do so it’s for the interest of others and/or my personal amusement.

A feminist (@jenneast8611) posted the following comments in response to my ICMI talk Women’s Negative Impacts on Organisational Performance (37:41) on Paul Elam’s YouTube channel:

“Do you have facts, evidence and statistics to prove your claim? Or are you being beyond stupid like you always are?”

My reply:

“I have REAMS of facts, evidence and statistics, all of it on my website JUSTICE FOR MEN & BOYS. Check out the last (70+ page) manifesto for lots of it. I reference some in this video, including the causal link between increasing gender diversity on boards and corporate financial DECLINE (nobody with a functioning brain should be surprised at the link, by definition that excludes feminists, obviously). I presented that evidence to House of Commons and House of Lords inquiries in 2012, links to the evidence on our website CAMPAIGN FOR MERIT IN BUSINESS.

It always amuses me when feminists demand evidence, because:

– when presented with it, they ignore it

– all feminists narratives are one or more of the following – baseless conspiracy theories, fantasies, lies, delusions and myths.

It’s dingbats like you who inspired me to start my website LAUGHING AT FEMINISTS.

Have a nice day, toots.”
