Dr. F comes back with another story that has a deeper story to tell. Wrong doers often use sympathy to avoid consequences to their actions and this is particularly true when it comes to women and their tales of woe. This story is about lost coins, deadly dolls, a crutch thrown into a pool, not just one but two toxic damsels and a society that excuses anything if a woman can squeeze out a few tears.

The European Union is considering adopting a law that would force all companies to have at least 40% of their directors and upper managers be women. The consequences of this are far-reaching and devastating to economies that are already suffering. But the news is great for the millions of women clambering to work in heavy construction. Trade in your bows for hardhats, ladies – Lucian Vâlsan backhoes the dirt for us.
As the common authorities on what is and is not rape, which victims are to blame for their abuse and whether certain sexual assaults are really rape or just sorta not quite rape, feminists seem to employ a lot of double standards. Of course we all know that they have our best interests at heart when they decide who was and wasn’t raped, and their decisions aren’t politically motivated. Promise. [Illustration by Europa Phoenix]
Although there are racial dimensions to men’s human rights issues, all races of men suffer from injustices generated by our gynocentric culture. With the race-obsession over the George ZImmerman/Trayvon Martin affair, a lot of people missed some much deeper issues. August Løvenskiolds has a look at the inherent sexism, and possible homophobia, in the much-ballyhooed story that most people seem to have missed. [Illustration by Typhonblue]
Jim Doyle of Genderratic.com is back with us for a review and update on the seemingly unending culture of victimhood cultivated by feminists. It seems the crops are starting to fail, and the tears are drying up as feminists shed allies and lose support. Women may be waking up from the siren spell of damseling and learning to stand without being supported. Will the fabled strong, independent woman ever become more than a myth?[Illustration by Europa Phoenix.]
Sometimes, even under the most dire of circumstances, men will start to stand up for each other. This is what the system fears most – men actually waking up and remembering that they are men, and that men are valuable. Being crushed by incarceration can bring out the worst in men – and sometimes, maybe the best. Once you hit bottom, the way out is the way up, and even in hell, not all hope is abandoned.
This is Chapter Three of Erin Pizzey’s must-read suppressed blockbuster, “Prone to Violence.” In Chapter 3, we explore the effects of violence and neglect on children. She describes how pain and pleasure becomes linked in the minds of abused children; and how the worst abuse is the slow destruction of the soul by verbal violence. It is a hard, but important read. Erin’s humanity shines throughout, however, as she tries to “love the unlovable.”
Gonzo Historian, Robert St. Estephe has returned with a story that will seem very familiar to many fathers today. In 1936 William H. W. Evans was jailed for kidnapping his daughter based on accusations by his ex-wife; he went on a hunger strike to protest as he had a written agreement to share custody. The only difference to today? That written agreement actually mattered to the Judge. He was cleared of all kidnapping charges.
Mary Beth Williams of Salon is just an asshole. On the other hand, Amanda Marcotte is a professional hatemonger who has once again made her naked hatred for men plain for all to see. In response to a New York Times article on reproductive rights for men and boys–or more specifically, men’s complete lack of reproductive rights, both show idiocy and contempt. Janet Bloomfield has some pungent words for both of them. How very Judgy of her. Very Judgy indeed. Tsk. Tsk. [Illustration by Europa Phoenix.]
Vladek Filler has been silenced enough. We at AVfM are moved by his plea for justice and we present the complete statement of his ordeal, made before Justice Ellen Gorman who gave corrupt assistant DA Kellett a slap on the wrist and allowed her continue to abuse men and their families–although there may be a slim chance that the hearing next week changes this. Our hearts go out to Mr. Filler, his family, and all the men who will continue to face Mary Kellett’s rage-fuelled vendetta against men.
