AVfM Managing Editor Dean Esmay returns with the Monday Roundup of all the cool stuff you may have missed in the last week. What, you say it’s a Tuesday? Well it was a long weekend for Canadians so there you go, eh? Anyway, here’s all the stuff in the rough with none of the fluff.
The weekend is over, the Monday grind begins. So to start your week off right, here’s a roundup of stories and videos and news items and other goodies you may have missed while you were away this weekend, or that may have glazed past your eye in the last week. Oh and a few off-site links, and the story of the tiny fuckup that wouldn’t go away.
John the Other has a question to ask the protesters from the University of Toronto. It is one, single and simple question that should be very easy to answer. And the invitation is on to any of the protesters to come answer it. We promise not to hit you with a stick.
John the Other went to Toronto today. He got to meet a lot of feminists; chanting, rhyming, mobbing, stick wielding, spittle projecting, patriarchy hating, cis gender despising, heteronormative rejecting feminists that all had one thing in common. They are all crazier than shit house rats.
The Canadian Association for Equality and the Men’s Issues Awareness Group of the University of Toronto are bringing yet another excellent discussion on men’s issues to the university setting. AVFM will be there to cover events.
We are quickly approaching the speaking engagement of Dr. Janice Fiamengo at the University of Toronto in Ontario, Canada. There may be tempers flaring there, and MHRAs will be in attendance. Some words of caution from Paul Elam.
Women, men, agency and toughness.
Our own Dan “Danny Boy” Perrins recently raised a whopping $12,400 for men’s and boys’ issues just by promising to do various funny things to his hair. We’d wager that’s $12,400 more than the Huffington Post has.
Dan “DannyBoy” Perrins is deeply disappointed. He had plans to do more of his boots-on-the-ground video coverage and exposure of crypto-fascist hate groups like the RadFem conference leaders and attenders. Sadly, he has learned that they cancelled their event. We think they’ll probably find a way to blame us rather than the fact that they’re a bunch of professional hatemongers.
Our coverage tonight will be on recent events at U of T. We look forward to talking to Daniel Perrins about the protest, the conference, it’s immediate aftermath, and garishly styled bright red badly cut hairdos.
