A higher proportion of men than women are qualified drivers, one of the reasons being that women are more anxious and have access to free male chauffeurs in the guide of partners, other family members, and friends. It’s one of the economic drivers for self-driving cars, so that women can go shopping more often.
We would naturally expect higher anxiety levels among women to result in lower driving test pass rates, and indeed that’s the case. Statistics over 2007-20 here. A piece in the Guardian here. An extract:
“In an effort to avoid additional “potential anxiety” during tests and bolster pass rates among female candidates, a report commissioned by a government agency has suggested asking people taking a test whether they would like their examiner to be “chatty” or “formal”.
The report by the transport research group TRL said men were found to be less affected by their examiner’s demeanour, while women were more likely to notice and interpret it, and that this might prompt self-judgment and worry about how they were doing…
A spokesperson for the DVSA said it was “committed to equality, diversity and inclusion” and wanted all candidates to “receive the highest level of customer experience”.
They added: “This is an important piece of research by TRL and we’re now reviewing the considerations put forward to reduce inequality in driver testing in Great Britain, and help us further develop the guidance available to learner drivers as they prepare for their tests.”
[End of extract.]
Perhaps a special driving licence should be made available for women, allowing them to drive only if their passengers were “chatty” or “formal”.

We recently posted a blog piece with the snappy title Feminist contraception anthems from 50+ years ago: Glenda Fairbach – “Ram It Up My Shi**er” (1969) / Betty Swallocks – “Tear Me A New A**hole (If This One’s Too Tight)” (1972) / Loretta Tease – “A Real Man Does it in the A**” (1969).
The videos proved surprisingly popular. In response to this we’ve decided to provide links from a couple of disturbingly hard-working supporters who’ve tracked down a few videos in a similar vein including Betty Jo – “I’ll Take It Up The A** For You” (1986) (2:23) and The Dream Reamers – “Get Out Of My Dreams And Into My A**” (1966) and Bessy Johnson – P*und My P**per (1959) and Vanessa Valou – “The First Time In My R*ctum” and Suzy Blossom – “B*ttplug in My Number Two” and Loretta Tease – “Use The Rect*m, Darling, It’s Tighter” (1969) and Fanny Slick – “I’m Gonna Beat, Beat, Beat The M*at” (1969) and Loretta Tease – I Took It Up the A** Again (The D*vil Made Me Do It) (1966) and Tara Dikoff – “I’m a Backdoor Beginner” and Chanelle Barton – “When A Man Loves A Woman In The Ass” (1978) and Doris Angelica – “A*sh*le Delight” and Jessy Lapelle – “You Came Twice In My Shitter” and Glenda Fairbach – “I Want Two Guys In My Ass” (1969) and Sonja – “Please My A*us Before I Take The Bus” (1983) and Betty Jo – He Shot It Up My Shi**er (1975) and Mandy Johnson – “Stretch Out My A**h*le” (1985) and Bessy Dalula – “My Rectum Beckons You”.
Hopefully this will be the last blog piece we publish on this topic. We’re not here to promote feminist videos.

Our thanks to Wendy for this. The Telegraph covers the story with the headline What drove an Italian mother to murder her son (£). Among the headlines you’ll never see:
“What drove a father to murder his daughter.”
An extract from the first article takes up the remainder of this blog piece, text in bold in the original:
“We knocked him out with a sleeping pill around 5:30 PM, but he didn’t die until around 11 PM because we couldn’t finish it.” This is one of the excerpts from the confession that Lorena Venier, a 61-year-old nurse, gave to explain to investigators what happened that tragic July 25th in the house in Gemona, in the province of Udine, where she raised her son Alessandro, 35. She killed him—a son—and then dismembered him, along with her daughter-in-law.
“We decided to kill him by putting him to sleep: I emptied an entire blister pack of medicine into the lemonade, but it wasn’t enough. At that point, I gave him two insulin injections, since he wouldn’t fall asleep completely. I’d had them at home for about five years. I’d gotten them from where I work, because at the time I’d decided to use them to kill myself,” Venier said during the hearing to validate his [J4MB: her] arrest before the investigating judge of the Udine Court. “Once the insulin had taken effect, we tried to suffocate him with a pillow, but Alessandro continued to fight back, even though he was weak .” [J4MB: The Telegraph reports that they finally strangled him with a pair of his own bootlaces.]
“The plan didn’t include cutting him up,” she continued. “I did it myself, when we realized the body wouldn’t fit in the bin where it was supposed to decompose, waiting to scatter the remains in the mountains. At that point, I used a hacksaw to cut him into three pieces, and Mailyn took him to the garage and covered him in lime.”

Today’s file is here (14:07).
Over a period of more than two years we’ll be posting links to one file daily from the J4MB YouTube channel. The channel includes our media appearances since 2012, 300+ videos of talks and other materials from the International Conferences on Men’s Issues (2014 – ) and other men’s issues conferences we’ve been involved with, and so much more. The individual conference playlists are here.
Our website Campaign for Merit in Business was created in the light of the considerable evidence of a causal link between increasing gender diversity on boards and corporate financial decline. Mike Buchanan, Steve Moxon and Dr Catherine Hakim presented evidence to House of Commons and House of Lords inquiries in 2012, their House of Commons evidence session is here (56:50).
Finally, we run the award-winning website Laughing at Feminists. The comedy channel (170+ videos) is here. Remember, it’s more than important to laugh at feminists, it’s a civic duty.

Our thanks to Ronald for this. An extract:
“An inquest into his death was held at Norfolk Coroner’s Court last August.
Assistant coroner Christopher Leach did not give a verdict of suicide after toxicology analysis showed the combination of recreational cocaine and alcohol found in Val’s system would have increased risk taking behaviour.
Instead, he recorded a narrative conclusion, stating Val had died “having applied a ligature to his own neck, his intentions when doing so being unknown”. [my emphasis]”
By this logic, deaths after the ingestion of cocaine and/or alcohol (and presumably other drugs) shouldn’t be considered as potential suicides.

“Bjorn-Andreas, my favourite YouTuber, is the man speaking here. He always has a down to earth kind of wisdom. His normal focus is country life, bushcraft and Viking lore. He is a historical novelist.”
