Our thanks to Nigel for this interesting piece. The headline (above) in PinkNews is misleading. The UN investigation relates mainly, it would seem, to the EHRC’s position on biological sex. An extract:

In justifying the review, GANHRI also cited the recent report by independent UN expert, Victor Madrigal-Borloz, who said in May that the commission wanted to give the government a “formula through which it would carry out discriminatory distinctions against trans people. Madrigal-Borloz added that he was “particularly alarmed” by recommendations made by the EHRC to change the definition of sex in the 2010 Equality Act to mean ‘biological sex’.

An interesting piece in Psychology Today. Some followers of this website may recall that Michele Elliott was the founder and director of Kidscape, a British charity, and she’s still associated with it. Her book Female Sexual Abuse of Children – The Ultimate Taboo was published in 1993 and of course resulted in considerable hostility and opposition from feminists. The issue of sexual abuse was covered in the longest section of our final manifesto, pp.51-7.

Is Laura Bates insane? To MRAs including myself it’s obviously a rhetorical question, but anyone not already convinced she’s as mad as a March hare on LSD might care to check out our large library of blog pieces on the eternal child-woman (37), including links to her Lying Feminist of the Month awards. The question of Bates’s sanity occurred to me again today when Celia sent me a newspaper article from Sussex, Big names lining up for the Lewes Speakers Festival. The “big names” include our fruitcake feminist as well as the appalling former Lib Dem politician Vince Cable. The line that made me think afresh about Bates’s sanity was this:

Laura Bates, founder of the Everyday Sexism Project, attacks the ‘systemic prejudice’ she sees in education, politics, media, policing and criminal justice.

The only systemic prejudice to be found in those areas (and so many others) is anti-male. It is surely evidence of Bates’s poor mental health that she would think otherwise. For the sake of her mental health, she really needs to seek some professional help. I shudder to think how many women – young women, in particular – have been brainwashed into delusional victimhood (with its consequent inevitable misery and dysfunctionality) by Bates since she launched her damnable website in 2012. If Bates lives to 100, she’ll still remain a child at heart.

The last item on the BBC1 TV lunchtime news was a story from Wales, of a sea eagle being sighted on a farm there. Apparently sea eagles aren’t normally found in Wales. There was some short video of it flying above the farm – it was raining at the time, what are the chances? – and the BBC newsreader ended the piece with:

It’s a mystery how the eagle arrived in Wales.

Well, let’s review the most likely options, shall we? I suggest they are that the bird walked or arrived by road, rail, or air. My theory is that the bird flew to Wales, but I’m no expert on sea eagles.
