NZ men far more likely to die of preventable causes than women.
The latest mortality data highlights the difference in mortality rates between the sexes, with 461.9 deaths per 100,000 males compare to 330.2 deaths per 100,000 females. Men are up to twice as likely to die from preventable illnesses like heart disease and diabetes. Men are three times as likely to die in a car crash […]
The Feminist-Male medal
Look-out, look-out, another Feminist-Male looking for a medal. As far as I can see no-one has invented a Feminist-Male medal yet. I think they should be viewed as the pirates of society. I nominate the first candidate as Peter Dunne. If you have a candidate for the Feminist-Male medal nominate them in a comment below.
Is this where we are headed?
Under-reporting of female crime
The Slogans of the White Ribbon Campaign
White Fibbin’ supporters often defend their campaign by asserting they have a right to focus on the particular issue of protecting women from male violence, and if other people wish to focus on other forms of violence they are welcome to do so.

Some history on feminism
The realisation of female violence
The Fox Wants to Look After the Chickens
We must remember that only men commit violence and only women experience it, at least to any extent worth acknowledging or worrying about. That’s why our government through several of its departments funds the anti-male hate-speech White Fibbin’ Campaign. On Tuesday we heard feminst Radio NZ (paid for by taxes from both men and women) […]
Only Men Commit Violence of Course
October Protests
Representatives of the Ministry of Men’s Affairs (a community group because successive governments have failed to respect the voice and welfare of men) will be present at protests each Saturday in October to coincide with the male-denigrating White Ribbon Campaign. The protests will will encourage people to wear a black ribbon instead to show they […]
“New” Expert Advisory Group on Family Violence Announced
From the office of Hon Turiana Turia, Associate Minister for Social Development. I think though I’m not certain that several of those appointed were instrumental in trying to wreck the Glenn project, perhaps dredging up the unsupported historical allegation against Owen Glenn. I don’t think this ‘new expert advisory group’ includes any expertise on violence […]
