An excellent new piece from Matt. I posted the following comments:
“Excellent piece, thanks Matt. The elephants in the room, of course, are feminists.
Abortion has long been an ideological cornerstone of feminism. The WHO estimates that 70,000,000+ unborn children are killed globally every year, a genocide on a scale with no parallels in human history. The most dangerous place for a child is in its mother’s womb.
Since the passing of the 1967 Abortion Act, British women have killed 10,500,000+ of their unborn children, and the abortion rate continues to climb year-on-year.
Feminists have also been useful idiots in discouraging women from having children, to facilitate governments’ unstated desires for population reduction, since the 1960s. Gerry Alexander gave a memorable speech on this issue at the 2024 International Conference on Men’s Issues, “Feminism’s Role in Population Control”:

In 2014 Janet Bloomfield wrote a piece for A Voice for Men titled 13 reasons women lie about rape. It’s been featured on the J4MB side column from that day to this, and will remain there indefinitely. It’s mentioned on my Wikipedia page – created by “The Vintage Feminist” many years ago – with references to it in an article in the Guardian (2016) and an article in the Telegraph (2017).
Janet’s article came to mind after I published a piece earlier today, IRELAND: ‘I know what happened in that room’: the full story of the Conor McGregor case. If Nikita Hand made false rape allegations against Conor McGregor, which I believe to be likely – the Irish DPP, a woman, ruled there was “no reasonable prospect” of conviction in a criminal court – what might have been her motivation(s), other than financial ones? From the Irish Times article:
“When Hand got to her home in the early hours on Monday December 10th, 2018, [J4MB: the morning after the alleged rape] she told her then partner Steve she had been raped. He made a 38-minute secret recording of their conversation. In it, a tearful Ms Hand said she was raped and repeatedly said she cannot say who by. When Steve urged her to tell him and said nothing is going to happen, she said: “It is, it is, he says he will kill me.”
At one point, Steve said: “This shit doesn’t happen any more, it’s not a case of just shutting up and saying nothing. This thing of keeping quiet is not all right.” “
Extracts from Janet Bloomfield’s article on the 13 reasons women lie about rape:
1. Women lie about rape to cover up their infidelity.
One night, Nicola Osborne got a bit drunk and ended up in bed with a man and they enjoyed “extensive sexual activity.” The episode was entirely consensual and the two swapped phone numbers after they were through. On the way home, it occurred to Osborne that her husband might not think very highly of her “activities” and she became flustered and visibly upset. When passers-by came to her aid, she told them that she had been forcibly abducted and raped by a stranger, sparking a massive police response to find the rapist. A subsequent DNA test led police to the man whom she had slept with and he was arrested and held for 12 hours. Once the truth came out that the encounter has been consensual, Osborne was charged with filing a false report and sentenced to 18 months in prison. Women lie about rape to cover up their infidelity.
4. Women lie about rape because they feel guilty.
Kelly Harwood had a few drinks and decided that sleeping with her friend’s son was a good idea. Upon reflection, she decided that she had betrayed her friend by doing so and reported her friend’s son for rape. She told police that she had been raped while sleeping, and her friend’s son was subjected to an “intrusive medical examination and interviewed under caution.” Two days later, Harwood relented and admitted that she had lied about the rape. She suffers from depressive illness, exacerbated by the amount of alcohol she had consumed. Women lie about rape because they feel guilty.

Our thanks to Alan for this in the Irish Times. An extract from the lengthy article:
“Following the Garda investigation into Hand’s claims, a file was sent to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) who decided in June 2020 there was insufficient evidence to prosecute. Hand, with the support of Dublin Rape Crisis Centre, sought a review but the decision was upheld.
The DPP, who carried out the review herself, told Hand a high standard of proof, beyond reasonable doubt, applies in a criminal case and she considered there was “no reasonable prospect” of conviction of either McGregor or Lawrence. [J4MB emphasis.]
It was a complex case, she wrote, there were issues related to corroboration of Hand’s account, the amount of alcohol and drugs consumed and CCTV evidence which, the DPP said, would not tend to support evidence in relation to Lawrence.
Another complication was Lawrence’s claim to have had consensual sex with Hand after she was allegedly raped by McGregor, the DPP said.
McGregor being a well-known figure was not a factor in her decision, the director assured Hand.
Hand, who described herself as “completely devastated” at the DPP’s decision, initiated her civil case seeking damages against McGregor and Lawrence in October 2020.”
Alan writes:
“Famous sports stars being sued for rape after women go with them to their hotel rooms late at night seems to becoming quite common. Some other surprisingly common features are the fact that there were several people present and only one of the people present claimed anything untoward happened.
Its impossible to know for certain what happened but it seems amazing to me that the woman would be believed above two men’s testimony and when her friend saw nothing untoward. It’s particularly odd when the other man involved was found innocent. There are also some quite odd aspects to her story.
This sort of civil case when what someone has been accused of rape but the case is too weak for a criminal prosecution is intrinsically abusive. [J4MB emphasis: Agreed.] The stigma of being a rapist is such that it is life changing simply to be accused, to be found guilty even in a civil court totally devastating.
How much confidence did the jury have in deciding as they did? I suspect that none of them felt he was guilty with any certainty yet he now faces many of the consequences of a criminal conviction that should be decided beyond doubt.
I don’t think civil damages for rape should be possible to be claimed without a criminal conviction. [J4MB emphasis: Agreed.]”

Enjoy (Spectator, £). Despite the title, most of the article is about his conversations with Trump, and his thoughts on assisted dying.
