Of all the titles a woman can earn in this land of female superiority — governor-general, prime minister, chief justice — surely the most delightful is Staunchest Pitbull. I covet it.
Of all the titles a woman can earn in this land of female superiority,
the ultimate prize has yet to be claimed — Queen of Nothing.

NZ teacher Peter Joyce’s settled life was disrupted when a woman he had never met accused him of historic rape. With a unique brand of angry humour, his diary plots the stages of his despair and traces his attempts to find justice in the face of the current insistence that we must “believe the victim”.
Dry Ice is a compelling memoir, but much more. The accusation made the writer a reluctant expert on similar cases from all over the world. He throws light on everything that limits public knowledge of false sexual allegations, from dangerous counselling to flawed statistics, and he exposes police investigation methods as blinkered, inefficient and insensitive.

With comment like this perhaps its time we men get some of these positions of superiority back into the hands of men to create a bit of equalty as these same women once wanted.{I never voted labour.}

The things you notice …
The news had an article about a new Toyota add, which has been subject to several complaints.
It’s the one featuring the tussle between man & woman (I don’t want to be presumptive by calling them husband and wife, or even partners) over the keys to their new toyota vehicle.
But what I noticed was a framed newspaper headline on the wall, presumably at Toyota Sales centre, or whtever they call themselves.
Featuring a headline regarding the infamous ‘Bugger’ ad.
A sub-headline promounced the new attorney general as a woman.
Perhaps the headlines should have been the other way around.
