The conceited Cunliffe and the ingratiating editor

Thu 10th July 2014:

As the saying goes, a week in politics is a long time. Yes, it is less than a week since Cunliffe made his declaration of shame – apologising for being a man – and the media fisticuffs for the moral high ground is showing no sign of losing intensity, case in point this editoral from […]

NZ Labour – The Feminist Election Campaign

Wed 9th July 2014:

As one commenter reminded us recently, Barack Obama won his last presidential campaign by chasing the female vote. I have made the point before that feminism is not a viable economic model, and taken to its natural conclusion there will be a point, at which it breaks the back of the federation – obviously that […]

Rape accused would have to prove consent under Labour plan

Tue 8th July 2014:

Story here: Rape accused would have to prove consent under Labour plan Labours Justice spokesman Andrew Little thinks the 1% conviction rate of sex cases shows the system is broken. Rather than a trial Mr Little wants; 1. No defence council to question the victim. A judge would do it. 2. Wants the defendant to […]

Sex Contracts

Mon 7th July 2014:

Not sure what we are getting into here. But these ‘sex contracts’ seem like a awesome idea. Written consent to navigate around the ‘guilty unless proven innocent’ concept 😛 http://www.kiwiblog.co.nz/2014/07/sex_contracts.html

The rise of the man-child

There is a growing trend of men who are beginning to realize the risks around the concept of marriage. Feminists claim that women who do not want to marry are ’empowered’, and that marriage is an institution that gives rise to abuse.

The Politically Unrepresented Male

Those who pay attention to New Zealand parliamentary debates will be well aware that there is seldom if any male perspective offered in our debating chamber to balance the overwhelming feminist dogma that has become a visibly dominant and mostly unchallenged voice – and even when challenged – that generally concerns financial priority and affordability […]

NZ Labour abandoning men

Sun 6th July 2014:

It is interesting to follow the evolution of the New Zealand Labour Party, from its originally fractured beginnings in the early 1900s, through a long period as one of New Zealand’s two main political parties, and now its descent toward being one of the participants in our fractured left wing of politics.

Rolf Harris Assassination By Long Prison Sentence Seen As Obligation

Sat 5th July 2014:

This site has strangely been silent over the fate of Mr Harris. Even if Rolf has taken advantage of girls under the age of consent, is 5 years and 9 months a fair and right sentence for an 86 year old man and his 20 to 50 year old historical crime?

Marriage fuels abuse

For the first time, there is something both me and the famous femnazi, Clementine Ford, actually agree on. Although my reason on this topic is – “Marriage is the financial rape of men”. http://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/life/10233310/Our-obsession-with-marriage-fuels-abuse

I’m too sexy to be a man

Fri 4th July 2014:

Yes, today, New Zealand Labour Party leader David Cunliffe, apologised for being a man. “I don’t often say it – I’m sorry for being a man,” Cunliffe said, “because family and sexual violence is overwhelmingly perpetrated by men.”

I am sorry for being a man

What a statement made by someone intending to be our next Prime Minister. By this apology he has painted every single male in this country as an abuser and a rapist. http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/10232457/David-Cunliffe-I-m-sorry-for-being-a-man

Another MAN BAN by Labour

Another MAN BAN policy by the Labour Government. I KEEP SAYING – Labour is ANTI-MALES. Any men who supports the Labour Party is either a half-man or a faggot. Why is there NO consideration given to any of the male victims here? http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/10232110/Labour-considers-sexual-violence-court

A Masculine Declaration of Independence

It’s a dangerous occupation drawing comparisons between people, as you run the risk of bumping into other’s preconceptions and opinions. However, after listening to the Youtube video of Warren Farrell speaking at the 1st International Men’s Conference, held recently in Detroit Michigan, I dare to take that risk.

International Men’s Conference – the media effect

Mon 30th June 2014:

Congratulations AVFM and the international panel who took their expertise and passion to Detroit, to make this inaugural conference a success, and raise awareness, not just of men’s issues, but the significance of men’s issues. First up, there is something that has got me a little confused about the media.

Rhiannon Brooker – jailed

Fri 27th June 2014:

You may recall the earlier post Rhiannon Brooker Cries Rape (April 2014) reveiling the shocking details surrounding the case of a English man, in which his partner, a trainee barrister, falsely accused him of rape and assault. One of the most disturbing aspects of this case was the extroidinary circumstances surrounding the police investigation, that […]

Family Violence Death Review

Thu 26th June 2014:

I wasn’t aware that New Zealand had a ‘Health Quality and Safety Commission’, but apparently so, and should I be surprised, they have a family violence death review committee. Their Fourth Annual Report for the year 2013 is available through the link supplied. History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with […]

BBC Live on Female Domestic Violence

Realistic reporting about domestic violence has arrived in the UK – watch this breakfast video. The number of women convicted of domestic violence offences has more than doubled in five years, according to figures obtained exclusively by BBC Radio 5 live Breakfast. A new report by the CPS states that the number of women convicted […]

International Men’s Conference – still on track

The first international men’s conference, to be held in Detroit this weekend shrugs off the recent threats of violence that forced a change in venue. The evolving story of the feminist backlash against men who dared to confer without consent was discused in an earlier post Feminist Extremists attack Men’s Conference. Conference organisers A Voice […]

Labour’s List Made on the Basis of People’s Genitals

Tue 24th June 2014:

The Labour Party has put into practice its ‘Man Ban’ policy even though Cunliffe previously made a show of rejecting it. Their list published yesterday was based on candidates’ genitals rather than merit in an effort to ensure a 45% female quota in their next caucus. By basing candidate selection on genitals and favouring vaginas […]

High Profile Protection Order

The husband of a well known Hamilton woman plans to fight two charges of breaching a protection order: The first relates to the man allegedly texting the woman just after being issued with the protection order, while the second relates to the man again, allegedly, communicating with the victim. Source story here This would be […]

Improving Prison Life

I grew up believing gaol was for the bad guys; that view would have been further influenced by television rather than any reality in New Zealand; it was not something I gave a great deal of thought to. One thing I can say now, is that in day-to-day life I have met more men who […]

Guilty Until Proven Innocent Pronounced

Mon 16th June 2014:

Story here: Glenn report released: Shift burden of proof An insane concept – But there it is. The last step to get rid of the 800 year old Magna Carta. All are guilty until proven innocent. Might as well pass the sentence first.

Man charged with assaulting infant

Sun 15th June 2014:

Bet 100 to 1, this is a mother on DPB, and the 32 year old her boyfriend. And the father kept away by CYF. http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/crime/10160337/Man-charged-with-assaulting-infant
