There is a Twitter feed, @icmi14 for the International Conference on Men’s Issues 2014 from which our Media Director, Janet Bloomfield, will be tweeting relevant updates. We invite listeners/viewers to tweet any serious questions they have for the speakers during their talks.
Men’s Rights activists seek to bring awareness to how men are acted upon by society, acted upon by other men and acted upon by women. They are opposed by feminists who think that bringing attention to how men are acted upon will take something away from women. Alison Tieman explains the dynamics in this video with the help of a few magnets.
Arthur Goldwag, the modern incarnation of Joe McCarthy, has recently engaged in mass censorship of dissenting voices on its own site. Why do we find this unsurprising? Moneygrubbing whores and ideologues don’t like facing criticism, after all. Jonathan Taylor has the story.
The following videos show the intimidating and violent behavior of feminists attempting to stop attendees talking about benign but nevertheless important men’s issues like suicide, homelessness and the decline of males in higher education. The intention of protestors is simple: to censure men’s voices, and these are the people who oppose our conference.
Not only is men’s pain denied and invisible, but some feminists are arguing that falsely accused men shouldn’t be allowed to fight back. Pierce Harlan calls out the real injustice.
When imagining a typical domestic violence perpetrator, many bring to mind the face of a man contorted with rage… but what if the face of the abuser does not belong to a male? John Ribner describes the face of the female abuser.
As an emerging focus of social awareness, transsexualism raises many interesting questions. Jesse Folsom asks us to consider a gynocentric possibility which could explain why we find a larger ratio of male to female transitions.
For reporting gross waste of government funds, Leon Walker has faced years of ongoing persecution at the hands of Oakland County Government, his former employer. As a result, his career has been ruined, he’s been financially destroyed, and in only a matter of days, he and his family will be evicted from their home. Leon shares his story about the consequences of speaking out.
Mike Buchanan’s was recently invited for his second appearance on London Live TV – ‘everyday sexism.’ Despite the awkward profeminist platform, we think Mike put in a good showing.
Living in an environment dominated by social-justice warriors and concomitant ‘victim identities’ it’s easy to forget the virtues of taking personal responsibility for the cards life has dealt us. Catreece McCleod calls for the death of the Oppression Olympics and the reclamation of personal responsibility.
