“Feminism is insanity” and should be classified as an “absolutely radical point of view.” said Vitaly Milonov, as he called for people propagating feminism to be prosecuted for up to five years.

He should also add this interview with Brendon Marotta to it, and this distressing conversation with a regret mom.

Our Male Genital Mutilation (MGM) playlist contains many others on the subject.

Nailing my colours to the mast, I’m confident to say that the allegations (and the accusers) against Brett Kavanaugh stink. These unverifiable and inconsistent accounts, surfacing at just the right moment to be of potential use to the Democrat party strike me as quite unbelievable.

Unfortunately, in the age of #MeToo especially, justice is not based on a guilty till proven innocent foundation. The word of a woman is increasingly sacred – the word of women (plural) so much more so. A “pattern of behaviour” established by a series of accusations legitimises even the most absurd claims.

Maybe we’re not looking at genuine depictions of the patterns of behaviour of male predators? Maybe we’re looking at patterns of behaviour in certain women when empowered to destroy men when the fancy takes them?

These women could be seeking justice – but there are many other possible motivations that are at least just as likely: sympathy, amelioration of shame for past behaviour, attention, money, political power for their side, malevolence…

Stefan Molyneux has made an excellent series of videos exploring the allegations:

Brett Kavanaugh Nomination Delayed, Republican Weakness Exposed

Surprise, Surprise! Another Brett Kavanaugh Sexual Assault Allegation!

Gang Rape? Brett Kavanaugh Sexual Assault Allegations Continue

I recommend them.

It’s something to do with a slight against Corbyn… I’m not looking into it, just enjoying a sly sense of satisfaction!

“Women V Cancer was first set up by Action for Charity (now Dream Challenges) in 2010. Since then, thousands of women have cycled crazy distances both in the UK (Ride the Night) and all around the world to raise funds for three invaluable female cancer charities: Breast Cancer Care, Ovarian Cancer Action and Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust.“

This is only the latest in a long string of U.K. events for women participants to support or celebrate women – from Race for Life – to  women’s marches to celebrate the Representation of the People Act 1918 (yes, the one that enfranchised 5.6 million MEN!). J4MB bears no animosity towards these events (well, apart from that last one!) but wonders what the public/media reaction would be to any event for men and boys to support or celebrate men might be?

Just noticed: a thread on Twitter from @womensmarch with photographs of a sit in outside the Supreme Court and a video of “Women arrested for peacefully protesting”. Interesting…

The U.S. Economist have dedicated their latest issue to #MeToo. Exclusively non-critical of the movement, in one article even arguing that it hasn’t gone far enough, the journalism is nevertheless well researched and written. There is a particularly interesting piece that links #MeToo to increasing political polarisation.

Paul Lavelle bled to death after being attacked by his girlfriend with a shard of a broken plate.

His mother and brother spoke to Birmingham Live about how male victims need to break their silence (although the fact that police were called several times during Lavelle’s relationship with his accuser raises a question over whether his silence was to blame or systemic failure on the part of the police?).

They are setting up a charity phoneline to provide guidance and support for male victims. Facebook page: here.

I’m looking forward to an interesting (free) panel discussion on male suffrage in the wake of WW1, in Portcullis House, London, late November.

The Hansard Record for the debates around the Representation of the People Act 1918 show that the women question was largely settled and most of the discussion was based around the fact if that working class men were good enough to risk their lives for their country, they were good enough to have the vote for their representatives.

It’s interesting to think about the sacrifices imposed on the majority of men at this point in time – and also the fact that they had to earn their rights (whereas women were really granted theirs). I tend to think that this is still the case in many ways in our society (look at the struggles of separated fathers seeking meaningful access to kids with obstructive ex-partners). In the U.S. it’s not changed with enfranchisement and many social services being dependent on registering for the draft, if you’re a man.

My thanks to my partner’s mother for bringing this clip to my attention! Ann Widdecombe on This Morning deftly castigating the “trivial whinging” of modern feminists and their fake issues. Video (6:54).
